The Jumping The Shark episode

So last night, it was the first episode of the new series on BBC3 of T*, that program firmly embedded in one of Britain's provincial cities.

Yay! (Even though it feels a guilty pleasure to watch it.)

It was, of course, rather rude in places, but also pretty funny, which is what it's supposed to be. And it's supposed to be a program for adults, after all.

Here's to the latest Two Pints.

I felt no guilt watching it.

My only quandary came when trying to work whose kiss I'd want to be on the receiving end of...

You too are a fan of the Runcorn snoggers?

Them too.

I had to explain the title to OldBloke.

I'm sure we saw it on Monday...

Aha, so we saw the repeat.

How can you tell it's new? Two Pints is to BBC3 what Police, Camera, Action is to ITV4, or Friends is to E4; appears to be on every time I flick through the channels. I wonder what kind of dirt Susan Nickson (sp?) must have on the Head of Comedy/LE in order to keep getting commissioned. Come to think of it, I'm pretty sure there's a studio at TVC that has been turned over full-time to production of Two Pints, according to my Beeboid sources.

By the way when did Runcorn become a city? :)

New barman in the pub; shot live (at least partly), with shots of audience and cameras&crew.
They've not done that before.

It's not? Ah, I see it isn't. For some reason I thought it had managed to achieve that status.

Damn. If I'd known that was on I might've over-ridden K's choice of RHPS - mind you, she's Two Pints fan anyway :)

I just watch ep1 of the new series via the website, but they don't appear to have the special available *poot*

If you're referring to Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps, I didn't realise it was still going. (Never rarely watching telly has its problems). I have a soft spot for the series since seeing their clever musical episode some years ago. It's a bit racy to be watching with the youngsters about (or was back then) but I could believe the characters.
