Egluntyne Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 Poor. A couple of amusing moments but not up to the hype. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlottechicken Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 I used to love watching it when I was younger. I stuck with it in the main and it did have its moments, but the whole thing just seemed dated now which was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 I liked the storyline and the way it meant that Audrey ended up living back with Marjorie in The Lodge - (anyone notice the chickens in some of the outside scenes? ) Loved some of the touches that reminded me of the old series; like Audrey watching 'The Big House' through her binoculars. Of course, it wasn't the same without Brabinger and his mother but you can't expect it to be the same. They don't make 'em like they used to and neither should they.

Egluntyne Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 but the whole thing just seemed dated now which was Thats right charlotte chicken. And it was obvious from the word go that Richard was Farmer Tom. I quite liked the new Butler...who seemed to be called Haemorrhage , but he was not as cute as Brabbinger.

Richard Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 I explained to my son's girlfriend (who was with us for Xmas) that into every life a bit of rain must fall. and since her indoors, for some unfathomable reason, wanted to watch To the Manor Born (don't ask me, I have never understood her TV watching preferences), that TTMB was the rain that was to fall into her life last night. However I went to bed and escaped. And I slept well - and got up early for Boxing Day golf. great ... And I reckon the bloke in to the Manor born is just about the sleasyest, slimiest, spiviest creep I have ever seen. ever. in my life.

chocchick Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 I liked it, and My family and Ballet Shoes last night. Dr Who was not too bad. I'm hoping Extras is good tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Him Indoors.......... isn't it time you were back in your box?? Was My Family a new one? - have I missed something? We managed to miss Dr.Who despite Carl being as big a fan as Dan - but it is repeated on New Year's Day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocchick Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 I presume it was new. There was a My Family last night involving an escaped turkey in a hotel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
