Anyone else not seen Gavin & Stacy?

Or is it Stacey. I don’t even know what this show is about, who is in it, when it started, or why it seems to be such a big deal. I’m not interested enough to Google and I’ve only seen it mentioned (numerous times) on MN. I feel slightly out of the loop but too disinterested to do anything further about it than writing this post.

Never watched it.
To me, Alison Steadman will always be Beverley in Abigail’s party. ( showing my age there )

Never seen ‘call the midwife’ either:
Glad I got that off my chest.

And Mrs Bennett. I think she’s superb.

I love Gavin & Stacey, it’s clever, but if you’ve never watched it the finale would’ve been a bit weird tbh.

I hadnt watched until Boxing Day when I started binge watching it, I'm really enjoying it!

It's on a par with Mrs Brown's Boys, as comedy goes...

I'm sorry but I can't let this comment stand!
Everyone can't like everything. The whole country doesn't watch and enjoy Gavin and Stacey. Just like the whole country didn't love Only Fools and Horses, or Fawlty Towers. But a lot did. G&S is the closest we've had to that wonderful character driven comedy with a narrative that people care about.

I've never watched Strictly. Should I post about that?!

Interested in this thread?

I find American shows that are supposed to be humorous painfully unfunny. The canned laughter is particularly grating. Each to their own, I guess

Never watched it. I don't like Corden, he gives me the ick.

Not seen it. I don’t watch telly and do not have a license.

Stop posting such utter nonsense.

I have never started a thread telling everyone about how I have never watched something (that many others watch) because I DON'T LIKE IT or don't fancy it. (which is what I was talking about.) And I was giving an brief example of it, and how ridiculous it would be!

But you knew that didn't you? Wink You just wanted to have a little jab at me!

Did it make you feel good... a little dopamine hit for ya? Awww bless. Grin
