I think the fact you use boards.ie is a sign you're getting old. All the young 'uns are on Reddit and other things I've never even heard of.

MAP2 is their low risk fund. 3 and 5 year returns are positive. It had a bad year in 2018 but didn't get near the -5% figure you quoted.

I don’t think they are remaking but that picture is from a reunion from a coupe of weeks ago where they all sat down and talked about the show. The tribute to uncle Phil was superb in fairness.
