Just The Two Of Us - the biggest, most shameful load of codswallop that ever graced a Tv screen.

The rise in so called 'reality' TV shows are part of the problem.  There are some good documentery/historical programmes on BBC2/C4 and C5 if you look out for them.  I think there are not enough current affairs programmes though.  There should be a slot for a Newsnight type programme at peak viewing time.  The C4 news is probably the best. Genuinely good comedies have always been thin on the ground and we tend to remember the better ones and forget that there was a load of dross during the hey day of comedy, when shows like Fawlty Towers and Porridge were ruling the waves.  We enjoyed these but also had to suffer with the likes of Man about the House and Mind your language etc etc.


However, rather than moan about the TV try listening to the radio.  There is good stuff on there, especially Radio 2, Radio 4 and Five Live (on a Sunday), but you have to mix and match.

Yes, I agree. I listen to Radio 4 but I always feel I should be doing something at the same time so I do the ironing or dust the bedrooms. With TV you expect to be able to sit down and relax. I like good quality documentaries and current affairs but mostly I like gentle, 'feel-good' dramas such as The Darling Buds of May and they are thin on the ground right now.

I heard drunks outside our local sing better



Coming soon to ITV1 - Celebrity Drunks Outside Our Local. Ten celebs including Jade Goody, Chantelle and someone who has recently left The Bill team up with ten drunks to get pissed, sing outside Oldspice's local, eat a dodgy kebab, vomit over someone's coat and have a slash in an alleyway. The winner gets ten free pints down the Dog and Duck.

So how many episodes were actually made? I'm pretty sure they weren't all shown on ITV as it was axed pretty quickly.

Post by: wjp666 on March 07, 2006, 10:53:58 pm

Yes all episodes were shown in (I think) 1989. A couple years ago they were shown on Challenge TV but were quite heavily edited.


WJP the forum is part of the Interceptor's Lair site!

What about the kid who was Dean Martin? I bet martin was dead years before that kid was born? What sort of career can he make out of singing Amore?
