I’m down The Grapes tonight as it’s back on BBC4 tonight, starting our very Mark Benton.

A hidden gem of a series - can't wait for it to be on the iPlayer in full.

I wonder if those temporary traffic lights are still there on Samuel Street

This is the first time I’ve seen it. Do you need to watch it again to get all the jokes?

Got to be honest it’s a bit meh for me.

It’s a bit like the royle family, bitter sweet aet

Every time I go down Birdall Lane I think of Early
Doors.

If I’m honest you do need to be patient with it to fully get it and understand all the characters. It’s a masterpiece though.

I also know a few of the boozers that it is effectively based on, and they are fairly accurate representations.

Yeah can see that - same writers??
It’s funny in places but it’s not something I’d go out my way of to watch again. But then I thought that about Royle Family too

Used to work on Birdhall Lane, always looking out for the temporary traffic lights .......
