Early Doors

My favourite Tommy line is when he is talking about his first house and Tanya asks him if he has lived round here all his life, he replies ‘not yet I haven’t’

Simple and brilliant at the same time

Great show! Was fortunate enough to see the live show in Salford a few years back. They eventually did an arena tour which for a pretty unknown sitcom from the early 2000's was pretty impressive.

One of the finest sitcoms ever. Absolutely hilarious. I got to see the live show at Hammersmith Apollo a few years ago. Loved it.

As someone said above, one of the reasons I keep a DVD player!

I'll be honest I'd never seen this before... Not even sure I'd heard of it until I saw this post. But I had a watch of the first three episodes last night and thought it was great. Right up my street! Also class to see Mark Benton in it.

One of the dodgy cops (James Quinn) has been in loads of stuff I'm sure but can't find much info on him. Anyone shed any light?


Cheers to the OP for bringing it to my attention!

Thanks for taking the time to post this pal. Put a smile on my face.

Love the bit where they’re stoned and shouting/laughing that through the megaphone. Creased up laughing at it.

Exceptional series. Great writing and perfectly cast. I've said this before on here but any fans should also look out for the 3-parter, 'Sunshine'. Same writers and some of the same cast, plus Steve Coogan and Bernard Hill. It's brilliant.

I'll have a look out for that. Cheers.

Yes, the Guardian flagged it up yesterday too.
