Bomber is the best character but they're all top lads.

Hmmm... could be due for a rewatch (I've been watching several episodes of Taskmaster a night for what seems like ever). Would have to deal with the Noel Clarke factor though, as I really like S3 and couldn't skip it

They're cut to shit on there. At least 5 minutes taken out of each episode

Yeah. There's lots of willies. You don't get them on UKTV 
Oh really? That's rubbish, I watched on Britbox a few months ago and its the full episodes - didn't know they'd been edited.

Yah. I just checked. Ep 1 on YouTube is 51 mins. On uktv its 44.
I watched it all on uktv last year before I realised, at which point I said "Ahh bollocks man".
If anyone is planning a watch of s1 see which eastenders characters you can spot; either in background or minor speaking parts

Dagmar was lovely, but Dennis really had to give his marriage another go, for the bairns like.

I was gonna say if Billy Joel was born and raised in the north east if England, but after googling I cannot confirm if Joe Fagin was in fact a geordie- although he certainly looks like one
Bomber likes that picture, bomber does

Bomber wants to get amongst the Spanish senoritas

Leave the gun. Take the cannoli.

Sort of like that's how they wrote it.

meh
The various character profiles were up and running from the first episode - by 3 in, it is like they were always there and you knew them & their actions . Pretty decent to get under your skin so quickly and take on lives off their own . Still stand by my earlier comments about the relaxed plotting giving the storylines and people time to develop. My kids couldn’t watch it I suspect, not enough happening.

Halfway through the first series. Loving it (again) as is my gf who it’s new to. She just can’t get over Jimmy Nail’s accent!
We’re both loving Barry and his very sensible approach to everything. Not so much his terrible jeans and blatant moose hoof.
Something I enjoy and shudder at equally is the fact that they are on a real site with very little, if any PPE, scaffolding with no handrails or toe boards and A REAL WORKING CRANE FFS!!! (With no hard hats
)
I was gob smacked to see Nev banking down a load. I can’t see how they could’ve faked it, or tbh why, as I reckon that would’ve cost more to do.
It’s ace!

Actually, having recently got to know some very nice people from Wolverhampton (which is where Barry is from), I know that the last thing he would want to be called is a Brummie!

socially inept is not a brummy stereotype.
also, as said, he wasnt from brum. dont know what the stereotype is meant to be for wolvo. dont think there is one.
edited to add: i did work in brierley hill once and the foundry manager told me if it was up to him he wouldnt have employed me because bilston was near wolverhampton, which was full of thieves, murderers and blacks.

Yeah, I remember thinking that.
I discovered Aufy at 15 when the third series was aired in the summer of 2002, and I assumed it was new. I laughed till my sides ached at Moxey discussing his nephew Gooey (spelt G-U-Y), then my mum told me there'd been a first and second series in the 80s. The family clubbed together to buy me a first and second series boxset for my 17th birthday, which I've still got today and am currently rewatching for the however-manyeth time, an episode a night.
