We love this little Scottish comedy. This is a new series. About 3 sets if neighbours. The women are the real stars. Everyone turns up in Beth's house where she ends up feeding them and supplying them with drink.
Cathy and hubby the 'posh' couple who like a drink. Then Christine the single woman with a sharp tongue. Also Beth and Colins gay son and partner add to the mix. If you haven't seen it give it a go. BBC2 Monday night 10pm

Isn't it brilliant, overthehill! grinWe've been getting it here in Scotland for a while.

I love Two Doors Down and have watched it from the first - I miss wee Sophie though and the baby.

I saw a NYE special a couple of years ago and thought it was the funniest thing I'd seen for ages.

Loving this new series.

We absolutely love this programme - it is the only thing on tv that makes me laugh out loud. Isn’t Cathy excruciatingly, hilariously awful? Wonderful cast.

Agree, it's really good. Rather reminds me of Still Game, which was also set in Scotland. I've got a box set of that, brilliant!

Have just discovered this. Love it!

We love it here.grin

This series is as good as the last and it still makes me laugh, it's perhaps even better.

It must cost a fortune feeding and watering the neighbours I think I would put a lock on the door. smile

I particularly love Christine. She is a Fabulous character. Always scrounging + being so tactless.

Marydoll Tue 13-Feb-18 19:51:37

Another fan here. It is such a tonic.

PoshGran Tue 13-Feb-18 20:16:09

Another fan here! grin

I remember Christine as Arab C. Nesbitts wife,mMary. Also very funny.

Yes it's a shame daughter Sophie isn’t in this series.

"Just a little mug of Bacardi to take to bed...." , why didn't I think of that?

Tegan2 Thu 15-Feb-18 12:41:09

Is the first series on catchup?

overthehill Thu 15-Feb-18 17:50:40

Not sure Tegan have a look

Love it. Only came across it a couple of weeks ago. Also love Still Game.

Another good one set in Derry, Northern Ireland...... is Derry Girls. The series is finished but may be on catch up. So funny, laugh out loud funny, but beware the language is very strong.

Yes Coolgran we enjoyed Derry Girls pity the poor English boy. Claire the clever one is actually 31 I believe playing a 16 year old

Grannyknot Tue 20-Feb-18 07:22:35

We enjoy this too, we actually know someone mutton-dressed-as-lamb-with-a-drink-in-the-hand like Cathy! I'm waiting for Beth to tell them all to shove it! grin - not Colin of course.

NanKate Tue 20-Feb-18 07:37:26

Just found this series on BBC IPlayer I will give it a whirl. I haven’t found any modern comedies amusing recently let’s hope this breaks the mould.

Grannyknot Tue 20-Feb-18 07:41:39

NanKate the very first episode, a one hour pilot, was very funny. That's where the viewer got to know the characters.

POGS Tue 20-Feb-18 10:22:32

Series 3 ep 1. Fish Supper

She sent me the flag of Brazil grin

I hope Cathy is back for the rest of the series.

Thanks GrannyKnot ?
