Starts tonight, anyone else ridiculously excited about it? Just finishing up rewatching to the end of season 3 now and can't wait.

Would love to watch Pulling again but don't know where I could watch it.

feedingfrenzyatfive · 12/01/2019 20:57

@teaches - I bought S1 and 2 of Pulling on DVD via Music Magpie, but it's all on Amazon Prime Video. The finale is download only. Me and DH watched it all over Xmas and it's still brilliant.

I love Donna - she's such an amazingly self-absorbed person, so much so that she's totally unaware of it. But she's a very realistic character, unlike her flat-mates. I'm sure we all know someone like Donna.

Thought this weeks episode with the Quaker sister was back on form.

Clionba · 19/01/2019 09:32

I quite liked the Shakespeare play section of this week's episode, otherwise very disappointing. It's lost that wry sharpness. I also don't know why they're ignoring the baby.

Delatron · 19/01/2019 12:20

I love it still. Don’t mind the crudeness, laughed at the neck brace sex scene. I like Sharon’s character, I like her and Rob’s banter.

Her wardrobe is just beautiful. Massive clothes envy. She must be the best dressed teacher in London.

Clionba · 19/01/2019 12:23

There is a stylist credited at the end.
It surprised me, because I think she dresses badly and I thought they were making a point about teachers salaries Confused! Taste is very subjective!

Delatron · 19/01/2019 13:57

God I loved the yellow dress, the denim jumpsuit and the print clashing. Very stylish but yes tastes differ!

Clionba · 19/01/2019 15:41

Actually, I quite liked that yellow dress!
This series is a bit disappointing, but could pep up. They've had such great storylines and good banter before.

EachandEveryone · 19/01/2019 21:35

Her clothes are very like SJP’s wardrobein Divorce.

Scotschic · 20/01/2019 17:39

I watched seasons 1, 2 and 3 of Catastrophe all over again on Amazon Prime, and I have found that when you watch it this way, without having to wait a week between episodes and a year between seasons, it has too much sex in it! Am I a prude? It’s just too much and there’s too many references to sex as well, and farting, does anyone else agree? I do love the show though but the sex annoyed meHmm

Scotschic · 20/01/2019 17:46

MinisterForCheekyFuckery Mark Bonnar is attractive and not in a weird way at all, I find myself looking forward to his scenes, Blush but he’s short and that puts me off, he was born in Edinburgh and I’m from there, although he sounds more Glaswegian to me, Wikipedia can get things wrong I’d imagineConfused

EachandEveryone · 20/01/2019 18:27

Scotschic thats why i stopped watcing it from Season 2. I just thought she was too vulgar and im no snob. It just got really smutty. Divorce was the same in the first season then SH stopped writ8ng it and its a much funnier show without all the swearing.

Im no prud3 by the way and swear like a docker when i need to.

Scotschic · 22/01/2019 02:32

EachandEveryone I’m glad I’m not the only one then! Everything I’ve seen SH in is far too dirty and smutty, it makes me think that she’s totally different irl, they often say actors are best at their craft when they’re playing the opposite of who they really are! Maybe she’s getting no sex irl, maybe she’s a prude, maybe her hubby is or maybe she’s just a dirty bitch who thinks about sex all day long, either way it’s starting to make me feel uncomfortable watching it, SH and RD both had a hand at writing this so he’s just as bad! The jokes about farting would maybe be funny if you were about 12, most women I know would feel it very unladylike to constantly talk about farting, different when you’ve been with each other a while but they, well Sharon was basically talking about farting from the first week, it’s bizarre and I’m glad this is the last season.

Scotschic · 22/01/2019 02:37

Not so much unladylike but who talks to their new boyfriends about farting, especially when you still want them to find you sexy etc, etc, I don’t even like when boyfriends fart, I don’t know if this makes me sound a certain way but yuck, it doesn’t put a man in the sexiest light either, I was with my ex for 4 years and I’d get embarrassed about doing a shit before he went in, I know that’s probably hilarious to some people but that’s just the way I am, a few of my friends have spoken about their boyfriends picking their nose and flicking itShock and they just gave them rows, I think I’d be sick if I caught a boyfriend of mine doing that, I’d most likely never be able to have sex with him again in all honesty, I better never get married because being ‘too comfy’ in a relationship turns me off, you could say I’m a commitment phobe really, although it’s no wonder people have affairs when they get that comfy with one another, it’s a turn off for me.

Scotschic · 22/01/2019 02:40

I also hate Sharon’s clothes, she has a nice figure but dresses like a typical primary school teacher, very unsexy, her figure is wasted on shitty clothes (well only in the programme) I’ve never once seen a primary school teacher with any style, is this on purpose? High school teachers dress far better!

Delatron · 22/01/2019 07:25

I’m guessing this program isn’t for you Scotschic. We all find different things funny. I don’t find it cringy and think SH and RD are great writers. Not sure why we are not allowed to talk about farting to our boyfriends?

Not sure why she should dress in a ‘sexy’ manner to be a primary school teacher. Her clothes are very fashionable and stylish but again not to everyone’s taste.

I, for one, will be sad when this show ends!

EachandEveryone · 22/01/2019 15:35

What did happen to Motherland?

Scotschic · 22/01/2019 15:36

Delatron I think the show has came to an end at the right time, yes they are funny I’m not denying it, but they’re just *too vulgar for me, it’s too much.

I’m talking about Sharons clothes because they have been mentioned throughout this thread, the things she wears together just don’t go imo.

Delatron · 22/01/2019 16:32

It’s the fashion to clash prints. I thinks she’s very stylish!

Scotschic · 22/01/2019 19:56

Well just because somethings fashionable doesn’t mean it looks good, we all have different tastes, thankfully.

Tigresswoods · 22/01/2019 22:15

Even her running gear is stylist.

Tigresswoods · 22/01/2019 22:15

Stylish!!!

mizu · 23/01/2019 07:24

I'm still enjoying it. And adore her clothes. Some of it can get a bit ridiculous but I find it funny and I look forward to watching it.

MargotLovedTom1 · 23/01/2019 07:26

Fran & Douglas! Funniest sex scene ever Grin.
