Stupid, chaotic nonsense......


And utterly, utterly hilarious for all that!

There really is no point in trying to intellectualise some comedy - if it's funny, it's doing what it says on the tin. Good to see Vic and Bob have still got the knack of making comedy out of the daftest things.

The should have done this years ago instead of kicking the arse out of Shooting Stars.

It beats "Not Going Out", that's for sure.

Yeah, I mean, when they were checking out Beef's yellow belt I was in tears... german honeymoon horses... some galloping... try explaining that one...

Worth seeing, but not worth going to see.

That's just it - it would be very hard to explain why any of it is funny, I just can't help laughing like a loon at it all. Genius idea having Matt Berry in the cast too, he only has to speak and I crack up.

I agree with that. Shooting Stars was awesome when it began but lost something in its last few series, especially without George Dawes.

I thought it was much better when Angelos took over from george.

i'm really enjoying it too.
first episode I wasn't so sure - there was something about seeing vic and bob being so old and the amateur hour atmosphere of it all.
now I've come to realise that's deliberate and the fact is it makes me laugh - the retro 70s on the buses/love thy neighbour vibe last night was hilarious - including the un-pc references to the 'coloured neighbour who's really tall - and fat!'
