On iPlayer.

Sheen and Tennant (in that order, of course!) being Sheen and Tennant.

It's perfect.

It's got some great lines. And if it was put together in 8 weeks from an idea to a Finnished film it's impressive.

Just watched it after crashing out after yesterday’s ride. Nice delight to start the day with. Never knew it existed until I just read this.
Anyway the birds are outside calling, so time to rig a camera or two...

Doing two episodes a day, one of the best things we’ve seen during this ‘break’.

Technology is fantastic when it works isn’t it?! Sat on the sofa and read this, held the little voice button down on sky remote, said “Staged” and now 15 minutes later I’ve watched episode 1! 😊

Thanks for the recommendation. Absolutely tremendous stuff!

Just finished it.

My one word review - MORE!

My goodness that was excellent. Just excellent television. To have pulled that together in the time, and given the circs, is quite something.

Outstanding.

S1 was great, Dame Judy Dench had me in tears, proper scene stealing.

"I'm Judi Dench". Brilliant.

S1 was brilliant, binge watched that and then gradually went back and watch it a second time.

Dame Judy Dench had me in tears, proper scene stealing.

The way it circled back to the same joke from Ep1 was very well done. 🙂

Loved tonight’s episode. Palin played it perfectly. Although Samuel L Jackson episode remains my favourite. Quality TV!

Haven't seen tonight's episode but I really hope we see a pilot for the US adaption.

I'm not as much of a fan of the second series to be honest. The first one felt very real with everyone playing themselves; this one has gone down a bit of a rabbit hole of what is real, what is acted and having some people playing themselves and some cast as "others" (like Whoopi Goldberg as "Mary").

It's definitely got some very clever and funny moments but it almost feels like it's tried to be too clever with too many in-jokes and too many cameos. The Jim Parsons one was good though.

Palin was brilliant, hilarious episode. If anyone wants another similarly chaotic quality laugh it's worth looking up the 'One man two guvnors' performance with James Corden.

My head did start to hurt when I tried to work out what was real. Series 1 was framed as seeing the calls between Tennant and Sheen whilst starting in a play. Series 2 admits that was all scripted and *this* is the real discussion. What happens in series 3?!

Basically, Stageception.

Caught it last night accidently for the first time.
Still laughing about the 'name that card'.
Brilliant now on catch up via i-player.

Plus I don't feel so bad about not having a haircut for nearly a year.

Will third series be a sequel to them candidly zooming about the American remake of the scripted show that is framed as candid zooming organising a play that wasn't happening?
