Anyone watch it? The jury's out in our house.

Saw the previews and decided not to bother.

Heard the radio show and decided not to bother, too.

About as funny as a nasty bout of herpes, IMHO. Then again, that's the joy of comedy, varying tastes. I happen to find ISIHAC hilarious, but some people just can't stand it. They're wrong, of course.

Having seen the trailers I was concerned it was going to be rubbish and fortunately it wasn't. Much better than recent series of the radio show, and funny enough that it was quite painful with almost-broken ribs... It's strange when you know the first four radio series so well and hear the "two teas" joke being recycled so it's hard to have a truly objective viewpoint.

Just tried to watch it on iPlayer it's terrible another shameful sitcom. BBC once did good
comedy now they just seem to commission any old crap.

It seemed to have been toned down a bit for the TV, I guess because they can use visual gags as well. I'll watch next week....
