what happened to mark's girlfriend? and the crazy woman? and the deed to the pub? does this show just start over from scratch each time?

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Tuesday, 29 November 2005 18:07 (twenty years ago)

mark's girlfriend sophie is in brighton on business.

― cutty (mcutt), Tuesday, 29 November 2005 18:08 (twenty years ago)

bristol, but yeah.

and presumably the mad girl's still in hospital? and the pub's still hers since she handed over the deeds while clearly deranged?

― CharlieNo4 (Charlie), Tuesday, 29 November 2005 18:10 (twenty years ago)

brighton/bristol, same shit

― cutty (mcutt), Tuesday, 29 November 2005 18:19 (twenty years ago)

more to the point, what's happened to Jez's American wife?

Yes, it's disappointing they didn't refer back to that. I want to see Jeremy and Superhans running the pub.

Also, what are the odds that Sophie has been seeing Jeff again? I have a sneaking suspicion that she went back to him when she thought Mark was sleeping around, hence the slightly guilty behaviour(and Jeff's comments) later on. This is all pure speculation, of course.

― Philip Alderman (Phil A), Tuesday, 29 November 2005 21:53 (twenty years ago)

sophie's not in bristol at all. she's on an island with polar bears and mysterious hatches and oh wait.

― CharlieNo4 (Charlie), Tuesday, 29 November 2005 22:18 (twenty years ago)

Blimey, I just saw gez and mark on des and mel! MAINSTREAM!

― JimD (JimD), Thursday, 1 December 2005 14:34 (twenty years ago)

and the consensus on tonight's episode?

― Bob Six (bobbysix), Friday, 2 December 2005 22:45 (twenty years ago)

I liked it a lot. But then I always like it a lot.

― Teh HoBB (the pirate king), Friday, 2 December 2005 22:48 (twenty years ago)

I loved it.

But I wish jel hadn't pointed out jez and mark's teeth problems, as I'm really noticing it a lot myself now.

― Bob Six (bobbysix), Friday, 2 December 2005 22:52 (twenty years ago)

The second half veered towards gervais-like comedy of embarrassment territory. But it was still funny enough for that to be ok.

I quite fancy big suze too.

― JimD (JimD), Friday, 2 December 2005 22:55 (twenty years ago)

Yes - for a moment there I thought I was going to be in the ridiculous position of being jealous of Mark's sex life....

― Bob Six (bobbysix), Friday, 2 December 2005 23:03 (twenty years ago)

"Salad and a Hawksmoor church." Awesome.

― Raw Patrick (Raw Patrick), Sunday, 4 December 2005 00:09 (twenty years ago)

big suze is fucking hot.

― cutty (mcutt), Sunday, 4 December 2005 02:29 (twenty years ago)

she's a daftee though!

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Sunday, 4 December 2005 04:30 (twenty years ago)

this show is so depressing.

― jed_ (jed), Sunday, 4 December 2005 08:23 (twenty years ago)

bad too.

― jed_ (jed), Sunday, 4 December 2005 08:24 (twenty years ago)

no, it's good.

― Theorry Henry (Enrique), Monday, 5 December 2005 09:20 (twenty years ago)

both were in the weekend papers doing different things (one doing the guardian magazine survey, another re-visiting cambridge for the travel section).

anybody ever heard the radio 4 show that goes out under their real names? there's talk of it transfering to bbc2.

They were on the Mel and Des programme and said that they're doing a TV sketch show.

― Billy Dods (Billy Dods), Monday, 5 December 2005 10:49 (twenty years ago)

this was a less quotable ep, more conventional sitcom than usual. but it was still fucking skill.

― Theorry Henry (Enrique), Monday, 5 December 2005 10:51 (twenty years ago)

Fantastic again. And to think I thought it'd jumped the shark 2 episodes ago.

― Cracks (Crackity), Monday, 5 December 2005 22:26 (twenty years ago)

"I'm coming back for you... and your cock"

Slightly disappointed with this episode too, tho better than the last one. Horribly, it appears Big Suze still fancies Jez.

I've lost all sympathy for either of the characters in this series, which takes a lot away from it for me unfortunately.

― Ste (Fuzzy), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 11:00 (twenty years ago)

I have too much sympathy for Mark, which also takes something away.

― Sororah T Massacre (blueski), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 11:02 (twenty years ago)

Jeremy has become much less sympathetic.

― Oh No, It's Dadaismus (and His Endless Stupid Jokes) (Dada), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 11:04 (twenty years ago)

funny at times but not enough to make it worth watching

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 11:14 (twenty years ago)

how do you know?

― Sororah T Massacre (blueski), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 11:18 (twenty years ago)

i am assuming that about a number of programmes tho granted e.g. Broken News (not seen it), current Simpsons (not seen them), oh and Faith And Hope on ABC.

― Sororah T Massacre (blueski), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 11:19 (twenty years ago)

i'm think mark used to be the central character really, but it's maybe tilted way over in the other direction. mark's sex-ph34r is a bit much, so i identify more w. jeremy.

― Theorry Henry (Enrique), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 11:20 (twenty years ago)

maybe Little Britain too (xpost)

― Sororah T Massacre (blueski), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 11:20 (twenty years ago)

"Blessed" on BBC1..................... only joking!

― Oh No, It's Dadaismus (and His Endless Stupid Jokes) (Dada), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 11:21 (twenty years ago)

I have seen peep show

saw an episode of little britain last week

disgustingly awful

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 11:44 (twenty years ago)

i guess you do have to watch something before deciding it wasn't worth watching. but how many times?

― Sororah T Massacre (blueski), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 11:50 (twenty years ago)

it is important to exercise some unwarranted prejudice or you'll be overloaded.

― Britain's Obtusest Shepherd (Alan), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 11:52 (twenty years ago)

otm

― Theorry Henry (Enrique), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 11:52 (twenty years ago)

I must have seen at least 5.5 eps of peep show

maybe only about 1.75 eps of little britian but that's more than enough

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 11:55 (twenty years ago)

avoid Broken News! I saw the end of it before a HIGNFY rerun last night, and within two minutes I was virtually screaming "Oh just fucking stop it!" at the screen. Unwatchably infuriating and unfunny.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 13:42 (twenty years ago)

gaaah! i forgot to watch the e4 repeat last night! damn...

is it on again?

― CharlieNo4 (Charlie), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 13:47 (twenty years ago)

was Broken News that 'thing' on bbc2 last night? Toss, basically.

― Ste (Fuzzy), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 14:17 (twenty years ago)

I agree with Dick and disagree with Martin. I think Broken News is often staggeringly good.

― the bellefox, Tuesday, 6 December 2005 14:38 (twenty years ago)

it's the funniest British thing to have been on Channel 4 since...

― Sororah T Massacre (blueski), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 14:55 (twenty years ago)

haven't watched broken news properly but it seemed a little irritating

maybe you have to concentrate

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 6 December 2005 16:16 (twenty years ago)

so: see when big suze was telling mark about her sister? "and the only airline that understands is BA"? does anyone else think this is a preamble to her scamming mark for cash, or am i just a horrible and suspicious person?

i thought that last episode was fantastic. yes, it's far-fetched and silly, but wonderfully so.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 12:49 (twenty years ago)

Big Suze would never do anything so mean!

― We Buy a Hammer For Dadaismus (Dada), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 13:23 (twenty years ago)

Mark's capitalist tirade on Friday's "ep" was too disturbing. And still it was unquestionably the funniest episode of the series, which is just frustrating.

― michaelleary, Sunday, 11 December 2005 17:23 (twenty years ago)

can't wait to watch this.
