I understand it's a long running BBC Four comedy programme (which I have caught the odd broadcast) that made it's way to the tellybox (series 2 starting soon)
How did I miss it when it came to TV?
Anyone else see it?
Was it any good (I hope so)?

If the trailer's anything to go by ... it looks a load of pants
It's lost quite a bit in its transfer to TV IMO. I thought the radio shows were hilarious at times (in an old fashioned way of course) but it was a bit disappointing when the TV show aired. It has its moments though and worth a watch, but just prepare to be underwhelmed if you're used to the radio show.

That was my main fear. The radiogram sounded pretty decent.

Seeing as it has just started and I'm washing the pots, I'll leave it on.
I've just watched it and found it to be funny in an old fashioned way. 
Pretty funny tonight I thought.

I have to say, I laughed out loud a few times, enough to make me watch another.
And I think it's absolute rubbish
Tonight's show was really funny.
Was? It's currently on my TV at the moment.
Darn, missed it, although I was out and had an excuse. 
Thank goodness for iPlayer.
Didn't like the look of the trailer so not seen it,I felt the same way about the citizen khan trailers.

I tend to give things a try myself, usually a couple of episodes. Try a couple on iPlayer Jackson.
