    Second series commissioned.
    Can't find any news article indicating this - got a link Harry?

    Peter Kay makes it very natural looking. One thing I hate in American shows is that the characters seem to have a full conversation without having to look at the road.

    Or when their hands are wiggling the steering wheel the whole time Like they're avoiding potholes.

    I assumed he was robbing Robert LLewellyn's car pool idea, which was a pity as I had therefore missed the first 4 episodes. It's one of those constant-amusement comedies which doesnt need a lot of LOLs.

    I have the highest respect for shows that can pull off two-handed dialogue in a confined space for a whole show.

    Red Dwarf-Marooned
    Bottom-Hole (the Ferris wheel) spring to mind

    Ha! No, I was going on a comment elsewhere :o Hey they'd be daft not to make it, the media talk of 'discussions ongoing'. I certainly think a Christmas special is nailed on.

    They have to do a Christmas special so we can find out if Kayleigh made it onto John's Christmas team!

    Second series commissioning was mentioned on the shows Facebook page last week. I definitely read it.

    I think they should release a soundtrack, loved all the music they played.
    Love Love this show.......Watching it for a second time and realised I missed loads of little small things.

    They had play lists on the BBC website, I think.

    Wikipedia lists the songs played in each episode in the episode guide too.

    Only semi related but kind of along the same tracks but there's a new series of Jerry Seinfeld's Comedians in Cars getting Coffee starting this week if anyone's interested.

    JapSi! :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 40,061 ✭✭✭✭Harry Palmr


    The songs are a special level of non ironic cheese, not a patch on Alan Partridge. :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 31,825 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    Peter Kay looks like Drew Carey pre-weightloss in Kayleigh's dream part in the final episode


  • Registered Users Posts: 43,821 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Peter Kay said on Alan Carr last night that he doesn't know if it's coming back yet, but a no-brainer for The Beeb surely.

    He was like someone on drugs last night. High as a kite!

    It'll be criminal if they don't do a second season.

    My bets are a Christmas special dealing with Peter Kays Christmas crew that he selected instore.

    Edit: just saw it was already posted.
    Sorry for the duplicate theory.

    I see Car Share Series 1 is getting a repeat starting this Friday at 9.30pm on BBC One (and continuing the following Friday).


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 23,930 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    2nd series confirmed and sadly no Christmas special due to it being dark in Winter (also why we'll probably have to wait until next Winter for the second series)

    If they "do", that kills the show. Dead as stone.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,834 ✭✭✭✭ThisRegard


    I don't think so, it opens up so many other avenues. Nothing much would actually change anyway as the show was built up around random conversations in the car, not purely on will they/won't they fall in love.


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,585 ✭✭✭✭Lady Chatterton


    My brother gave me a gift of the DVD recently. I wasn't sure of what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised. I love the series, Kay and Gibson have a wonderful chemistry and there are so many laugh out loud moments. The music is really great (Thanks Skid for posting the playlist). Forever FM even use a jingle that my local radio station Clare FM have used in the past :eek: I can't wait for series two.

    We will get a second series of Car Share, but it will only be 4 episodes and it won't air until 2017. Bit disappointing.


    http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2016-06-01/peter-kays-car-share-will-be-back-for-a-second-series

    Filming on the second series had to wait until this summer, because the show needed to be shot in brighter weather. Set to air in 2017, it will be slightly shorter – four episodes instead of six.
    As with series one, the second batch will premiere on BBC iPlayer in its entirety before broadcast.

    Apparently there will be a tiny new bit of Car Share on Christmas Eve, a new sketch will be broadcast as part of Peter Kay's Comedy Shuffle (10.05pm, BBC One). The rest of the show is old clips from other Peter Kay shows.

    http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2016-12-09/peter-kays-car-share-could-be-back-this-christmas
    “Peter has been trying to keep it a secret but there will be a Car Share clip of around three minutes," a source told The Mirror.


  • Registered Users Posts: 43,821 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    I've seen bits and pieces of Comedy Shuffle in the past and there's definitely bits of Car Share in there that weren't aired in the first series... whether they're simply deleted scenes or what, I'm unsure. But this just could be more of the same.
