Shit on it! It's Friday!!

SHIT ON IT!

Most of my communication with DH consists of Friday Night Dinner quotes!

Don't kill me, but I'm not enjoying this new season as much as the earlier ones...

MayTheGods be prepared to cry when Wilson dies. Iweptlike it was my own bloody dog.

Did anyone else clock the actor who plays Jim say 'shalom' in The Trouble with Maggie Cole the other week? Grin

Ginkypig · 10/04/2020 17:22

Hid yes I did!

Hidingtonothing · 10/04/2020 17:32

It must have been deliberate by the writers surely? Made me laugh anyway Smile

MintyCedric · 10/04/2020 17:37

@Bezalelle same here with 15yo DD.

Friday night's are the the highlight of my week again, what with FND, Gogglebox and Neighbours now only being on twice a week!

‘Hello bambinos’ is a regular greeting in our house Grin

Love love love this show although I can never articulate why I find it so hilarious. The way Jackie says ‘Martin!’ 😂

Love love love this show although I can never articulate why I find it so hilarious.

Isn't it because it's more than a little bit familiar? (Please say it's not just me.)

The guy who writes it was on radio 4 this week- he said it was largely based on his Friday night dinners he had- Shalom-anyone for a schmoigle? 😂

I loved the coat in the tree episode. The way everyone made space jokes every time Johnny wore his coat had us in bits. "Are you ready for lift off?" when he did his zip up! Grin

littlemeitslyn · 10/04/2020 20:51

Well I love Tamsin Gregg

Haggisfish · 10/04/2020 20:53

I love it but I do feel that this series has almost become a parody of itself slightly.

The 'shit on its' etc feel like they are now for the fans not because it's comically appropriate.

Haggisfish · 10/04/2020 22:41

Tonight’s episode was fab. I love sally Phillips.

Wishforsnow · 10/04/2020 22:51

Best thing on TV at the moment

Return to form tonight we thought! Martin is just the best character, need more of him up to no good in the shed.

BadMoon · 10/04/2020 23:08

My ds has morphed into Jim - I think he has forgotten how to talk in his normal voice!
