I haven't seen it talked about anywhere on here. But I have just got into it via i player etc and am totally up to date (like it's a challenge?!) and I think it's utter genius. (Although I have started talking like grindah)

Just watched the last of series 3 last night. So emotional. Poor steves. Good for Miche though.

Haha, I'm a bit ashamed of my Grindah crush Blush

I'm going to you tube their Dragons den episode tonight.

But I don't think grindah's fit though!!! Help yourself, gals!!

I do aspire to be like miche's mum when I get to that age. Which I probably am at already.

There's grindah, beats and steves doing dragon's den on YouTube too. It's bloody hysterical but I don't know how to post links etc etc.

I think there should be a web chat with chabuddy. Only because I love it when he does his Japanese impression.

Yeah! I knew there must be other people that love it. Grindahs fit (or is that just me) and the dopey one reminds me so much of my exes best mate from years ago. Everyone always got him to do shit unquestionly, poor suckered!

The last episode was just brilliant. Poor Steve. Roche's son's recaction to the baby was spot on! Mich telling Grindr his fortune, go girl! I am too invested , but its one of the best programmes thats been on in a while and i am old! I just want to hug Michelle!

I absolutely love it - so funny and the tiny details are hilarious and brilliantly poignant - Steves just playing the piano beautifully when they get studio time, Chabuddy sending the crew away when Aldonna leaves.

It's the best comedy I've seen in a long time! Obvs the relationship between Beats and Grindah is excellent but the other characters are so sharply drawn. Love it.

Also, I have definitely known people that are like every single character on this show, even Craig. I think that's why I love it so much

Just watching series 2 at the moment. Love this show.
Grindah is a real life MC, and apparently they got the idea for the show when watching The Office stoned: www.vice.com/en_uk/read/people-just-do-nothing-set-visit-interview-kurupt-fm

I really like miche and glad she's sending cocklodger off!
I love Steves so much. Clever episode with the emotional depth it had but also still hilarious. V clever team of writers/actors.

This last episode was fabulous. So much depth and emotion. Thank goodness Miche stayed strong. I missed Decoy though Sad

I love it too, having stumbled across S1 a while back and becoming hooked. I'm an 80s gal and remember pirate stations from back in the day, really don't be think you need to have lived the garage scene to like the show.

It is just so cringey but funny at the same time.

As PP have said, with just a look/ raised eyebrow from Decoy, Craig And Roche and we all know what they're thinking.

Looking forward to seeing how Grindr reacts to Beats' baby, once it's born. He wants Beats to himself and got jealous when Beats became pals with Darren from the ante natal classes.

Grindah was actually an mc before the show started. And beats was something in the music industry too-a producer I think?
I love this but it's almost too much to watch sometimes. Cringe cannot cover it!

Decoy expressions are so funny. I don't think they is a garage scene/pirate radio community like that these days tho?

I am old, i wasnt there, but i get it! They play the same song too! It just funny.

I love it. But I was there, I do wonder if it's as funny if you don't 'know' them. Love Decoy and his despairing expressions.

Grindr is probably a private school , Rada trained actor. He lets him self down with his diction!
