paul-r-cfc Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 The Lone Wolf goes to the school my sister teaches in. Needless to say, his accent is getting slaughtered on twitter 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s like they’ve gone full on Andy Millman in Extras and have accepted that playing to the catchphrase-loving morons will get better ratings and more cash than something that’s genuinely funny. Got to bear in mind that these guys made Chewin' The Fat - at least half of that show was just catchphrase after catchphrase, repeated and worn so thin it was painful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSU Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 The first episode had its moments, I suppose. I quite liked the opening few minutes but it went downhill pretty fast. The lone wolf episode was a new low. Dreadful stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lone wolf episode was a new low. Dreadful stuff. Most annoying thing about it was that a wee guy shoplifting, and Naveed trying to bust him, then eventually helping him, theres nothing wrong with that as a storyline. But to over egg it with the lone wolf shite.... What the f**k were they thinking? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 I can't bring myself to watch this anymore. I gave up last series halfway through the episode they were playing 5s and haven't cast an eye on it since. Dreadfully unfortunate as the first 5 series cements it as the finest sitcom ever to come out of this country. Series 6 had begun to decline a wee bit but it's completely dropped off a cliff since it's return. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to over egg it with the lone wolf shite.... What the f**k were they thinking? Absolutely. A decent enough premise totally fucked. If the Lone Wolf thing didn't scream shite from the page, surely it must have when they started filming it. I find it hard to believe that two guys who clearly know how to write can't recognize such glaring problems in the script. Or maybe they just don't care anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizarre and pointless storyline, wee laddie steals sweets from Navids shop, he goes to the wee shites house and discovers his mum is skint as dad has fucked off so Navid gives said wee shite a paper round, zero laughs and pointless inclusion, almost as if they had no idea how to write a decent plot to include Navid who has had little air time so far this series so came up with this bollocks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordonD Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 My favourite scene was when Isa got into the lift with Jack and Victor when they were on their way to a school reunion (I think it was). Neither of them said a single word but by the time the lift got to the bottom Isa had worked out where they were going. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
