Saw a trailer for it the other night.

Can hardly wait. Although unsure if my pelvic floor is ready.

Dh and I a bit concerned by how excited we are about this. Suspect we need to get out more.

(Though not on Friday nights at 9pm, obviously)

Adore the ugly duckling love story bit. Apparently loads more of that, hurray.

SMALL SPOILER AT END OF POST

Radio Times meanly says they are not sure the second series is as good as the first on the basis of their preview tapes.
Nearly impaled myself on knitting last night revisiting Harriet's skirtless arrival at the office and every single loony moment of Mark Heap's performance.

SMALL SPOILER ALERT

Mac is in a coma following the literal cliffhanger of the end of the last series. We see inside his mind though as he imagines himself to be all THE members of Boyzone, singing Back for Good...photo in RT does look wincingly funny...

Oh well, even if it isn't as funny as the last one, an hour of drunken gawping at the oddly alluring Julian thingy-thingy is certainly something to be welcomed...

I nearly wet myself just reading Marina's spoiler, which must bode well....

LucyJu · 22/03/2006 11:15

Can't wait. Friday nights are so crap on telly at the moment, aren't they? (must get out more... in fact, must get out!)

bundle · 22/03/2006 11:17

thanks, marina, that's made my day Smile

Marina · 23/03/2006 10:43

Did anyone SEE the Coldplay video before last night's re-run episode - after that four minute eye-opener nothing Mark Heap did with his sopranino recorder could seem surreal or far-fetched...Shock Shock I thinking making his mother-in-law take part was rather mean of Chris Martin Wink

Yeehah!

Tonight it is.

And what's more, we're home from the school easter bunny drive in time to watch it.

(not sure why any of this should bring out the cowgirl in me, mind)

hmmm

boring when mac in coma

Nbg · 31/03/2006 23:06

Yes it was a bit dull until he woke up.

Liked it though.

paolosgirl · 31/03/2006 23:08

I'm not sure about it...it wasn't that funny Sad

edam · 31/03/2006 23:08

Enjoyed it but it wasn't really up to scratch until Mac woke up. HR woman self-inseminating was a scream, though.

MillionDollarBaby · 31/03/2006 23:16

damn do you mean to say I missed it? buggery bugger
