I have to declare a personal interest here (DDs best friend is katy) but it was very funny indeed it's a series.

I was completely prepared to hate it because it's not my sort of thing but actually I loved it. Made me chuckle, which is rare for tv sketch shows. I thought the congratulation sketch so absurd - tried for ages to decide if it was offensive but in the end it was too bizarre to think anything else. Will see if my enthusiasm continues this week but I do really like them.

That's good Enid Grin.Yes I saw their pilot last year so I knew the 'congratulation' sketch, not their best IMO, the German Countdown was clever and funny, as was the Young Apprentice sketch in which Katy was spot on!

I thought it was really funny, but totally bonkers!

Loved German countdown too.

I didn't like 'Congratulation' - a bit of a blip in an otherwise funny show.

Oh yeah German countdown was great! I actually liked congratulation because it was so strange. Apprentice sketch was great (and highlighted why I don't watch it!)

Yes I can't stand the real Apprentice either (i can't quite believe the contestants do they think that everyone speaks like that? do their parents speak like that ?)

Loving Kuntworts!

Congratulation was just weird.

countdown was the best thing by far - even lee mack was funny in it and i really don't like him usually

I LOVE Lee Mack he's very clever and has made it from being a 'nobody' (he didn't go to any of the posh unis.) as he said in an interview I heard on the radio.

Yes the blonde woman is Anna Crilley Allthingspretty They are a comedy pair like French and Saunders but they do stuff separately as well.

Watched it on catch up last night and really enjoyed it. German countdown and the apprentice sketch were hilarious Grin A few other sketches were a bit hit and miss, I didn't really get the congratulations one either. Lee mack was great.

Well what does anyone think about last night's? I loved Anna's has been actress "Line" Grin and Katy's little prompt girl Grin. Also the 2 little teenage types speaking to camera in their bedroom very good observation there IMO.

I quite liked the "long arms of the law!!" Their acting is very good they had the voices of the WPC's just right and the "arrest" bit was funny.

not so good this week for me
the line actress was funny

FriskyMare · 15/03/2013 15:42

I am finding them very funny, am waiting for german SiL to visit over Easter so she can watch Kuntworts Grin

I was pleasantly surprised. Much better than I thought
