Yay! One of my favourite ever shows. A one-off special is a much better idea than a new series; I've seen too many once classic shows come back for a new run and just not cutting it second time round. A really good Christmas special would be fantastic and wouldn't dim the impact of the original episodes.

The programme is very funny but it makes me feel slightly uncomfortable. It's the voyeurism - we are looking in on them and laughing at their simplicity and their over-blown working class mannerisms. Still, I'll enjoy it just the same!

It's Nana that makes me laugh - I'm still intending to sue Caroline Aherne for stealing my nan!
