Birds Of A Feather 2014

[pearly queen]

Blimey - Birds of A Feather is practically the same as before, as if it had never been away! You'd hardly guess at a 15 year break.
Tracy, Sharon and Dorien look much the same - the humour is the same. Not the funniest thing ever written but quite amusing, with likeable enough characters. Will definitely watch again next week.

We liked it too - a much better comeback than 'Open All Hours'.

Actually thought some of the humour was even sharper than the original stuff, or maybe it's just that the actresses have that much more experience now and can deliver their lines better?

Anyway, pretty good start - definitely worth another look-see next week.

Piece of trivia - 'Garffy' now played by Matt Willis (ex Busted!).

It's like they'd never been away ;D
I was always a big fan of 'Birds', and I loved this.

Another piece of trivia: Travis Stubbs is played by Pauline Quirke's son

Yes, it has got potential

I gave up with the original series after a while as I think they flogged it to death after a few series..but this could inject new life in to it

Second episode just as daft.

[Nick]

Mmm thought the second episode was a bit drawn out and dull

Really? We thought it had some funny scenes.......especially at the car boot sale.

[Nick]

Mind you..my mind did wander off a bit lol

I'm not sure how I feel about Garfy and family. Not sure if they work or not.
I expect there will be some funny shop scenes though.

I could have slapped Linda Robson tonight..her voice could strip pine at full blast

I quite enjoyed the 'Birds' going full rant tonight. Got a shock at how old Lesley looked without her wig.
