| Wow, I think it's painfully unfunny. But I know some older people that do seem to like it. (not trying to be funny there Frankie, just what I've noticed)

| yea not my cup of tea, don't really find it funny and the jokes sound like they were written by a 10 yr old. My Nan likes watching it though.

| I'm with you Frankie, the first thing on the BBC that I have laughed at in a good while.

I've still got that one to watch, only seen the christmas special which was good. Pulling 5 million viewers regularly as well so must be a few with our sense of humour!

I just did a catch up of series 2 in the last week or so (never watched it before). I can honestly say that the last time I laughed out loud at a TV comedy was when Fools and Horses was on TV. This makes me laugh out loud!
I love the unscripted bits near the end where he tries to get a cast member to do something unplanned.
I know humour is very subjective (for instance, I find Reeves and Mortimer painfully unfunny), but I'm surprised that some people don't find this show at the very least....amusing?

Saturday nights episode was superb.
The conversations in the pub between Agnes and Winnie are just pure Comedy Gold imo.

I watched two as I had recorded them. The one where she thought they were putting her in a home..........

| Not a fan myself, but i believe the majority of the cast are all related in real life.

Yep, it's a freudian nightmare.
His wife plays Kathy, his daughter so she has to call her husband "Mum". His daughter plays his daughter-in-law. His son plays his son's best mate who keeps making passes at Kathy.
Loved the last episode where Rory was (failing to be) miserable.
