Sick.. Totally, disgustingly sick.

best thing I've seen in months

Tubbs & Edward survive the shop blowing up only to be run over by a Virgin Express train, following the 'Blue Road' toward the big city lights..

Babs, the one with the pink cab who had a sex change is pregnant(!?) by David (Edward & Tubbs' son).

Some bloke who was given a year to live has taken to obsessively rehearsing his own memorial service..

Pauline (ex Job Centre lezzer) is got out of prison by Ross to work for him.. he assigns her to get evidence to prosecute Mickey for dole bludging. Some extremely unpleasant scenes with her.. not least Ross giving her one

And possibly the scariest GP of all time..

Absolute comedy classic.. I love it

I thought the "roughly from behind" scene was class ...
even better when se is struggling to get her tights back on ! - funy.

Swmbo does not get this program at all - I think i just like it because its so different from the 99% of shite on the idiot lantern.

Saw it. Laughed out loud and shouted out in shock and horror at some of the scenes.

My girlfriend who had never seen it before walked in on the scene where Pauline went down on monkey boy and she was suitably impressed (she had to cover her eyes several times).

Great stuff, pure genius.

Funniest thing on TV now Pheonix Nights has finished
But you either get it or you don't, GP was so familuar to a point, and the Micky/Dorren sex scene was brilliant

IMO it was a little too twisted(?), i enjoyed the pure comedy of characters such as Papa Lazarou but the Ross/Pauline thing was pure genius! the "private docitr" sketch was brilliant too, did anyone see the second episode on BBC choice?!

I wasnt too impressed meself, the 1st series was a bit mad till ya got into it but the 2nd seris was just flipping fantastic. Watched the 1st 2episodes last night and thought there was something missing, but maybe i just liked Herr lip, and the 'special stuff' butcher too much, and my fave the circus fella - can't remember his name the 'ello Dave, your my wife now' dude, that was a twisted character.

I'll watch em all but still think the 2nd seris has the uppet hand for now.

Quality, agree that the dark humour is now more biased to the dark than the humour, but brilliant nevertheless. Watched the 2nd part on BBC Choice, the wimpy fat debt collector boy was hilarious, with his rosy cheeks and huge buck teeth.

Pauline was as cutting as ever, the sex scene with Mickey was stomach churningly graphic but hilarious. Can't wait to see what happens with the other characters in the coming weeks.

You either love this or hate it, my girlfriend just doesn't "get it" which is how I like it!

PS. Hope Papa Lazarou features soon

Papa Lazarou, I think he'll be back in this series. It is tradition to go out in fancy dress on Boxing Day here in Wigan. It's amazing how many girls want to buy pegs and a kiss from PL

Ah good, there are others out there like me.........

Glad to see it back, will we see the return of Hilary Briss do you think ?

Will Pauline get to open her pen shop ?

Will we see Pop return with his selection of magazines "women with insects" & "dogs arses" ?

I thought the first episode was good but not great - but the second one on BBC choice was superb.

I can't wait for the next one cause it appears it will be based around "Legz Akimbo - Put yourself in a child", who were one of the best bits of the last series.

I also have to admit to having recorded Edward saying "Hello hello, what's all this then, we'll have no trouble here" as my ring tone on my phone.

More importantly are Hilary & Val Denton dead ? They were left in the secure toad chamber in the last series.

There may be no more nude days and an obsession with toilets and cleaning products as a result.......

Those who watched the second one on BBC Choice know the answer but does anyone dare say to ruin it for those who didn't and are waiting for next week on BBC2?
