[Elina]

Enjoying this sitcom at the moment. Based on Danny Bakers autobiography 'Going to sea in a sieve' Two episodes so far, very funny! Anyone following it?

[ummmm]

I watched the first one on catch up. I like it.

The father reminds me a bit of my grandad. He'd rant and rave about anything and everything except my grandad used foul language :-)

[Elina]

Loving it ummmm, I think Peter Kay is great in his role ... & the young actor playing Danny, brilliant! .. The eyes have it!

[ummmm]

Peter Kay is very good.

Luckily I have a smart TV so can watch it on iplayer.

[Elina]

Yeah, I watch on iPlayer too on my Kindle.

[ummmm]

I can't watch things on the Kindle. The screen is just too small and I lose concentration. The OH could sit in bed all day watching crap films on it... :-)

Will you be watching This is England? Looking forward to that.

[Elina]

Definitely ummmm. I put a post up about it, fabulous! Three of the actors were on Chatty man last night!

[ummmm]

My kind of music this time. Really looking forward to it.

[Elina]

Yep, the 90s! You can't stop watching once you start!

[aelmpvw]

isn't it set in the 70's?

[Elina]

Cradle to grave is ael. Just talking about 'This is England' ... different decades.

[ummmm]

Sorry, Ael, for going off topic and talking about This is England.

Yes...Cradle to Grave is set in the 70's.

[aelmpvw]

ah, got ya, i can't keep up :-)

[Elina]

My brother had those pink/ blue two tones.

[Elina]

& who took advantage of an empty house with your boyfriend/ girlfriend! All very above board though .. bit of 'necking' haha!

What were they doing watching the Prisoner? This is a 60s programme, just confuses things-might as well get them watch the Billy Cotton Band Show?

[Elina]

I've just found Danny Bakers book on Kindle & downloaded a sample ... on my want list now!

[Elina]

Repeats possibly Marsh?

We're watching and enjoying it very much. OH listened to the audiobook a while ago and thought it was brilliant, so we were looking forward to watching this series. Apparently so far it's pretty close to the book.
