The Venn diagram between those who like MMB and voted Brexit is just a shaded circle, once you ignore those who did it for their own malicious financial benefit

Mrs Brown’s Britain | YouGov

Mrs Brown’s Boys is one of Britain’s most popular TV shows, but also one of its most divisive. Now data from YouGov Profiles provides a look at the difference between the sitcom’s admirers and detractors

Pure coincidence, I'd forgotten all about him, untill a question about him came up on the Chase tonight and Ray Reardon was the answer. Rest in peace.

Living in Ireland, the Irish think it's great, because it's Irish. A bit like they think U2 are great and Sinéad O'Connor was great and The Late, Late Show has interesting interviews.
Overrated shite.

MBB is only rated at all, let alone overrated by those with a vacuum in their brain pan. The worst show ever committed to film. The Daily Star in TV format.

 

[SSB]

I CAN NOT fathom what it is about MBB that people find funny/entertaining.

I take it no one on this forum has been up the Civic the past two nights then

Another one you’d forgotten about, or thought had died years ago Roger Whittaker aged 89, he of the whistling and leaving Durham town

 

[leedswolf]

Ah, yes he sang about Durham and the Tyne!!

 

[Paul]

Born and raised in Nairobi and still wanted to leave Durham ! His parents were from Staffordshire apparently

In shows pretty much my whole life. Loved The Man from U.N.C.L.E. when I was a kid, then Colditz, followed by Sapphire and Steel. Of course NCIS in recent years.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

A night to remember as well

Michael Gambon, 82.

Loads of great roles but I especially liked him in Layer Cake.

Michael Gambon, 82.

Loads of great roles but I especially liked him in Layer Cake.

Layer Cake is absolute quality. I might watch it this evening.

RIP, Sir Michael.

 

[Tony Towner]

Only watched Layer Cake last week, it's currently on Sky. He is indeed great in it, shame he only appears two thirds of the way through

 

[Templeton Peck]

One of the all time greats.
