Yes, I couldn't resist watching the next episode straight away either!

But I have to say, I cannot view Storymakers in the same light anymore...

Blossomhill · 01/01/2008 21:59

cant wait 10 minutes to go .....

notnowbernard · 01/01/2008 22:02

Hello, Lulu!

(I seem to go on a bit to you with regard to my television habits!)

Yes, I have a 12 hr shift tomorrow, start at 7.30am, both dds are up alternately throughout the night (the coughing chorus) but still I cannot miss this!

notnowbernard · 01/01/2008 22:03

Have just re-read the thread... didn't get the box set for Xmas... oh well

lulumama · 01/01/2008 22:04

yes, we can be virtual telly buddies

notnowbernard · 01/01/2008 22:09

Have just had a look at the on-demand service, they have all previous series... Hooray!

Re box-set issue, DP made up for this error by giving me a beautiful, most unexpected, coat from Monsoon. This from the man who has presented me with a bottle of Baileys on a previous Xmas morn

So he is Let Off

lulumama · 01/01/2008 22:10

coat from monsoon!?

notnowbernard · 01/01/2008 22:27

So far so good...

Loved the baby with Fruitshhot moment...

lulumama · 01/01/2008 22:45

oh yes....... froot shoot

cracking script as always

notnowbernard · 01/01/2008 22:46

Ooh, quite poignant, really... Is this the series which will be more dramatic rather than comedic?

Am enjoying. Worth staying up or, in any case

lulumama · 01/01/2008 22:48

there is often a vein of seriousness running through it

notnowbernard · 01/01/2008 22:50

I agree. Though did think the last series was a bit 'jokey' and OTT at times with Maguires

lulumama · 01/01/2008 23:15

yes, but also some proper drama

are you watching the next episode on e4?

notnowbernard · 03/01/2008 21:05

Didn't see the next episode... my bed was calling my name too loudly

Looking forward to next week though... was it any good?

Raahh · 08/01/2008 18:22

we finally got round to watching the first episode last night, and i was really disappointed. Too many of the better characters have gone , and am i alone in thinking the Monica character ruins every scene she is in? I agree the Maguires took over the last series- hope we see less of them in this. Bring back Sheila!!

wooga · 08/01/2008 19:44

I still enjoyed it!

I do miss Sheila though-she was hilarious-and Kev and Veronica.

I've got all the older series on dvd though, so can still watch the old favs.

My other dvds are channel 4 comedies too-Teachers and My name is Earl!
