Agree totally. And the police crack me up too. 'Crime won't crack itself...'

Old Tommy died last week. Shame they didnt do another series.

Personal issues and they couldn't (for a long while) get everyone together as a lot of the cast were busy on a lot of other projects. Shame, but will have to be remembered as a short lived cult classic. 👍

Phil and Nige the coppers after they have a joint. Good giggling

Beautifully written and acted, just a perfect comedy. I'd also highly recommend, by the same writers, the mini-series Sunshine, starring Steve Coogan and the writers, plus Bernard Hill and a few other cast members from Early Doors. Not sure if it's streamed anywhere but it's absolutely brilliant, and will make you laugh and cry.

Ken's mam gets right on my t!ts too, which again must be a sign of very good acting 😂

Yeh she irritates me big time! Good acting, great writing I'd say.

The eggs chopped up in a cup remedy for Ken's flu is hilarious...

Eddie: "You eat it Ken"

Ken: "Oh do ya? I was gonna rub it on me chest!"

Eddie: "I told you it was an easy mistake to make Joan!"

🤣🤣🤣

Completely forgot all about this. A Manc housemate at uni lent me the DVD’s, it’s great.

I think the reason it resonates is those conversations are happening all over the country in pubs every night. I know I’ve certainly had some random convos over the years where outsiders would be like WTF are they on about.

 

[Scubahood]

Also the part where Ken calls Eddie over to give him the envelope containing the money they've all chipped in with, so he and Joan can pay their phone bill from all the calls to her mother who was ill. Phenomenal acting. I definitely had something in my eye watching it...

I have both series on DVD and often binge watch 3 or 4 in a row.
Just brilliant on every level.
Writing, acting, comedy pathos it has the lot.

Binge watch? 3 or 4 episodes? Amateur.

Anyone a fan of this brilliant British sitcom from back in the early 2000s?

Superbly written and features one of my favourite actors too, Boro lad Mark Benton. Love him 👌

Love this programme huge favourite with everyone in our house. Went to see the live show, really good. My favourite line (from the live show)
Duffy to Joe in the context of having a forthcoming date - “Can I have some of your Viagra?”
Joe - “no you can’t I need it for me gout”
Duffy - “I didn’t know Viagra cured gout?”
Joe - “no it doesn’t but it keeps the duvet off me foot!”

Did anyone else really fancy the bar maid that Ken eventually settled down with? Can't remember her name.
