Anyone catch this with the brilliant Lesley Manville?

Reminds me of Gavin and Stacy a bit, not laugh out of comedy but it's all in the slightly too long pausesGrin

Can't wait for the next one!Smile

First one is on iPlayer atm.

We really enjoyed it too, just put it on on the off chance and we're pleased we did.

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 16/05/2016 09:08

Wasn't it great? Best thing I've seen for ages! Made me laugh and well up in the space of half an hour.

I used to see Lesley Manville frequently as I used to live near her, she's lovely in RL too.

It was on, but I fell asleep!!!! I'm going to try and catch it on iplayer.

Groovee · 16/05/2016 11:09

Reminds me of him and her.

HapShawl · 16/05/2016 12:08

It's been done by the same people who made him and her

HapShawl · 16/05/2016 12:09

It's sort of like him and her fast forwarded 30 years

BertrandRussell · 16/05/2016 12:51

It's so old fashioned! And there's I Want My Wife Back too- it's as if the BBC's caught in a time warp.

HapShawl · 16/05/2016 13:24

What do you find old fashioned about it?

I hadn't heard of I want my wife back so can't comment on that

Davros · 16/05/2016 13:28

I started a thread on I Want My Wife Back and no one posted! Shows how unpopular it is. I will give Mum a go, the title put me right off

BertrandRussell · 16/05/2016 13:35

Blond bimbo
Thoughtless son
Henpecked man with snobbish partner
Silent friend who will end up with her in the end.

A slightly brought up to date After Henry.

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 16/05/2016 13:44

I loved After HenryGrin

I didn't like I Want my Wife Back I only have it ten mins though tbf.

I didn't see Him and Her.

Where can I find I want my wife back?

The80sweregreat · 16/05/2016 15:55

I liked it. Poor Michael is so in love, bless him. Lesley Manville is a lovely actress.
Kelly was funny, pauline i wanted to hit.
Looking forwards to next week.

Davros · 16/05/2016 16:01

I Want My Wife Back is a BBC programme. It is dire!

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 16/05/2016 16:12

Can I borrow some knickers? Grin

I just found it on catch up , love it !
Have I missed any or was this the first one ?

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 16/05/2016 16:51

First one!

It was awful. Really old fashioned. The joke about losing your glasses but they're on your head- went on for far too long and not funny at all.
Waste of Lesley Manville.

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 16/05/2016 22:46

I loved that as I'm always doing the sameGrin

southeastdweller · 17/05/2016 20:23

I also loved it. So funny and well observed. Pauline is the most believably passive-aggressive character I've seen in a TV show.

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 17/05/2016 21:03

She was!Grin

BearFeet · 18/05/2016 12:43

I loved it too.

Groovee · 18/05/2016 12:55

Is this on normal tv?

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 18/05/2016 13:00

Yes, bbc2 I think. It's on iPlayer atm.
