Can I say how much I am enjoying Black Books

[BlinkingNoraWotzThat]

which I didn't 'get' first time round
its brill

I love Manny

infact I love them all and now dd nearly 11 is enjoying them too.

We've got all three series on DVD - they're just great

I love it I love it I love it

must go and watch now byeeeeeee

it's the best programme in the world FACT

tis true

OK I give up I can't find it anywhere and now I'm sure I've missed it. What channel are they showing it on?

You can watch it on 4OD. One of my fave comedy shows. I love the episode where the blokes try to write a childrens book.

sky comedy Hairytoe

that episodes great, with manny as the Caterpillar? very short arms and the hen do.

yes that's the one. The story they make up is excellent. How many books just like that have I been forced to re-read a zillion times over the last few years.

I also love the one where manny gets really hot (is it daves syndrome or something).

Oh they're all good. I often watch them on 4OD when ironing.

yes! Dave Syndrome
fabulous

We have all on DVD too. I love where they are looking after a friends house and Bernard is eating a coaster... as they have just emptied the cellar of the nasty old dusty wine and left the new shiny wine there! Its very sad me and dp almost know the words ;)

DH was rolling around on the floor at the end when he is beating the car up with a trafic cone.

I suspect Dh might have dave syndrome, he went a bit troppo when we were in darwin.

yep fan-bloody-tastic

where is it on?

not channel 4 i take it.
loved it too.

You can get all the episodes free, on demand on 4OD (on your puter). No ads either.

oh thanks.
will try

it's great you can pause and go to the loo (or fill up iron resevoir)

OK on your recommendations I have just gone and reserved series 1, 2 and 3 from the library.

HairyToe - Now there's a thought, good idea

4od wouldnt download

i don;t have autority?? or something. will try another day.

My favourite is the one where Bernard has to pretend to be able to play the piano. And the one with Fran's friend from college with the deep voice. And the 'old wine' one. And the one with Julian Rhind-Tutt as the explorer. And the one where they fit the security door. And... all of them actually. Have just been re-watching Green Wing, must start watching Black Books again now!

Love, love, love!! We have the DVD set too. Saw Dylan and Bill at an arts festival last year-highly recommend seeing them live. :-)

Bill Bailey is a comedy god. I play this video to my students to introduce them to a course on language change. They never laugh as much as me though

Its a fab combo. Dylan Moran is lovely and dry and grump and Bill Bailey is just one of those genuinely very funny pple.

asicsgirl thanks for the link
its very funny

also like the piano one
when fran got an office job tapping on the keyboard, not knowing WHAT she was doing and her boardroom pitch.
