General Chat

I thought i had seen him somewhere before - didn't realise it was Emmerdale, i stopped watching it when it went too soapy.

I think he was in Kingdom with Stephen Fry & i liked him in that one. I didn't like his character in this one at all - but I think that was just good acting.

I have to admit i thought Brian would be shocked - but I thought he would have been supportive as well. After all she stood by him for.

Tabitha, I have to agree that the reaction from Brian didn't seem to ring true to the character he'd portrayed so far.

I hope Steph, if there is another series, doesn't go back to Terry. Not a character I warmed to and strangely that is because many years ago he was the first person to Play Robert Sugden in Emmerdale and I didn't like him then.

Well things got a lot better tonight

However i was very disappointed with Brian - that was not the reaction I expected.

Is that a teaser - hoping for a 2nd series

I do like the Penelope Wilton one liners.

They should have had the copper do the Male model bit - he had a better body but Russel was fun

I did enjoy tonight's episode, hope there will be another series. I have to say none of the parties I went to had a male model. :-D

Last one tonight - there is a possibility of series 2

Steph is planning her local Ann Summers night – a women-only fashion show, with rude games and the promise of a male model

Anyone want to guess who the male model may be - or who you would want it to be.

i certainly do - both the girl (from Bletchly circle) & Penelope Wilton.

Felt like banging a few head together too.

Loved the bit in the loo where the bride said to the thin girl if she wasn't married she would have gone for her - that was a very good one liner.

Be interesting to see what happens next week

I've enjoyed this series but was sad when wots' ername was so cruel to Jonny, the policeman.
Don't you just want to shake some people lol?

I actually enjoyed last night's episode.

Have stuck with this series but have not enjoyed it
like the first episode.
Predictable as you say, as is the soaps that are being
shown at the moment.
Will not be watching the next series.

Oh dear its all crumbling down

Some very good one liners - a lot of oh my goodness now what are they going to throw at them & i cant believe xx is that stupid.

Wonder if next week will clear it all up or just end up in confusion, pending a 2nd series.

I was very cross with Penelope Wilton on Monday - certainly not what i thought she would do

I do think some of the story lines are very predictable

i did like it when she kicked the lad out of bed

I didn't notice the theme tune but I enjoyed it this week. One day that poor little butchers lad will be smothered!!

Anyone have any thoughts on this weeks show.

i for one thought it had got better - but it was very predictable - my OH & I guested at least 3 things that were about to happen - but was caught out at the end

I am not saying any more in case you haven't seen it yet

Looking forward to next week

Is it me or did they change the theme tune on this weeks show ?

Used to love ever decreasin circles, Peter Egan was so funny.

I agree - its sort of moved on to a "Just for women show" my OH was very disappointed he thought it was going have more humor.

i did like her face when she did the party on her own - thought it was very realistic - shows what a good actress she is. Reminded me of her comedy days, shame she doesn't do more. It was the best bit of humor in the show so far.

Can believe she is the same one that was in Ever decreasing circles all those years ago - i loved it when they were both together in Downton again (her & Peter Egan)

It somehow seems to have joined soapland. There was a flash of humour like the first episode when she did the party, but otherwise nothing out of the ordinary.

I enjoyed the first episode but have not been keen
after that.
Will keep watching incase it picks up.

Any comments on this weeks episode

Have to admit I didn't enjoy this week - as much as I did the first one -

My OH recognised Jesse from Holby - didn't realise it was him - not seen him with hair before.

i did enjoy the rolling under the rug bit - very clever.

Think there is more to Dame Penelope's character, i think there is a very sad story there.

I think there is a shadow of "In the Club" hovering - with the robbers & people getting run over & people going off with best friends partners .

It was interesting this evening to see how many ways the families developed and intertwined.

Trumps was based in Rickmansworth, with agents all over the country. I enjoyed doing the parties and meeting new people, and of course, earning some extra money. I won a few awards and prize gifts too and when I was at home with a baby, it was a bit of a social life too. It was gold, silver and titanium.
