For the hard of thinking, Part 2 of the NEW episodes is at 9pm tomorrow (Saturday), Mainly cos the Dave channel can't afford to commision a full series, and are spinning it out for all its worth in the hope no-one will notice!.

 

...So we get 1 new episode (of the three new 'uns) followed by several re-runs of old ones (and a couple of "The Making of" shows for the to pad the whole shebang out and make an event of it. Oh... and each new episode is a mere 30 mins (less ad breaks). Not much plot time then!

 

Tonight's show was definitely not the worst I've ever seen. As I said earlier; the last of the original series was tripe. This is a distinct improvement over that (though that's not much of a yardstick to beat!). It was missing the dynamism of a studio audience for the static scenes though . It made some dialogue gags feel forced and empty (as if the old Shooting Stars "tumbleweed and bell" cliché was about to roll).

 

I'll be watching tomorrow... if only for old-times' sake!
