Have anyone watched this BBC show ? It's hilarious !! The main character, even without proper training in acting, he did a wonderful job. Do you find boss like that in England ?? I am sure they are everywhere.
The begining of season1 is a bit boring but My favourite is "the special edition" , lol
Good show !! LOVE it so much I bought the DVD set.

Totally agree !!
Does anyone know if they have plans to do another special ?
Was it a big hit in England ? and do people REALLY buy the CD ? (I assume they put the songs on a CD)

I've been enjoying this show too! It cracks me up  Series 2 just finished airing here. I'm tempted to buy the DVD. Another BBC series I'm loving is Coupling. |

Yeah pretty big - it's one of those shows that just grew. Funny thing is Ricky Gervais and Ali G both 'broke' on TV on a show called the 11 o'clock show. Nice and offensive. |

while we're about it, ladies & gents of the UK, if you liked Fawlty Towers stay clear of the remake - Paine/Payne, I remember the name if not the spelling. I was HORRIFIED  can you imagine Cybil and Basil kissing anf making up? Hell no!  |
