I see a full series of this show is coming to iplayer on 13th august.
The pilot is excellent.
Some brilliant guest stars lined up including maxine peake, david bradley and natalie cassidy...lol

Mad first episode, silly but found it funny

Funny show. I only like Philomena Cunk in small doses, but I think Diane Morgan has done well with Mandy's character, sort of down-plays her.
First episode reminded me a bit of Some mothers do Ave em and Frank Spencer.
Maxine Peak was great in the second episode.

The opening is a steal from Shooting Stars if I remember rightly.

Shaun Ryder as John Travolta!
Biscuity pee!

Mandy has something for everyone.

The fish 'maybe one died of old age and the rest are dying from a broken heart'

Very funny. Great antidote to the all the idendikit sitcoms around at the minute.

I hope it returns for another series.

A couple of very funny gags in trailer.

Just a heads-up for anyone with BBC Northern Ireland (first up against the wall when the revolution comes) that this is delayed until Thursday at 23.15.

Very good review in the independent.

Watched the first two of the new series.

Very funny especially the second one! Her walk alone has me in stitches.

She reminds me of Frank Spencer a bit with both characters failing at any job they are in!
