Craig 6321 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Didn't really enjoy it tbh - wished they'd left it as it was... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meenzer 14136 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Wasn't bad, just a bit pointless. Came across like something more suited to a stage play or fan fiction than a full-blown TV special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetleftpeg 0 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Aye, pretty flat. Maybe should have done it over 2 or 3 episodes, seemed like they were rushing to get it all in to an hour and 20 minutes or whatever it was. Lass I work with is a massive fan and said she was 'disgusted' at how poor it was. Oh dear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alex Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 It was shite tbh. I thought the same but I was being polite. Wor lass made the point that if we'd been a bit older when it was on first time, we'd (i.e. me and her) probably have hated the characters (or at least liked them a lot less). And @ SLP's colleague.

Papa Lazaru 0 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 I thought the original series was nothing special at all (despite all the hype) so i didn't bother with this and it sounds like i didn't miss anything! It rarely works well if you leave something for ages and then go back to it. The recent Royal Family special wasn't a patch on the original series either.

Guest alex Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 I think it was very much of its time too. Thought it seemed dated whenever I saw reruns. And all lawyers are the scum of the earth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well i was a head of you then, as i didn't think much of it when it was its time! I didn't think it was bad at all, it was watchable but compared to the hype/hyperbole being bandied about it was nothing to write home about.

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 I enjoyed it at the time. Plus, from what I remember, it didn't become hyped up as such till it had finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly, but i heard a fair few people (in the media and just people you know/work with) banging on about it as if it was the greatest drama ever. Often happens in this country though, when something half decent appears it gets overhyped comp[ared to some of the other crap thats about!

Mowen 0 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Too young to have seen it at the time, but I thought this was crap. Didn't really believe any of the characters, and the storyline just seemed stupid. Sort of a catch-22 situation though I would imagine: Everyone who loved it at the time would want another episode, but programs like that are often going to date very quickly.
