MBB is an injoke full of cultural references that the average singletracker will not be in on or understand. It reminds me of scottish pantomime where the writing is just a bit better than english panto.

Its a culture I'm not part of so I don't really get the gags but appreciate the production standards. I have a chum that thinks its hilarious but she has a bit of an irish/catholic background and a similar family structure.

FFS. Really?

Do you think all people with an "irish/catholic background" have a "similar family structure"?

Where's Edric when you need him?

And there are much better things on the radio i.e. Bleak Expectations etc.

Agreed,Bleak expectations & Fags mags & gags are excellent,as good as,and usually better than anything on the box.
IMHO of course.

A vote for Mrs Browns Boys signals the fact that we should now stop asking Brexiteers for both thier opinion, and vote.

First they came for the MBB fans, and I did not speak out—
Because I was more an IT Crowd person

Then we lived happily ever after though I do wonder where my mum went.
