Mick I really enjoyed the American version of the office. Probably the only show they have copied and made enjoyable

But...the pom one is still better in my eyes . Hope you enjoy it....might be hard to judge watching them so close together though ?

I watched 'two hands ' last night. Forgot how good it was

I liked the English office better, watched it first though. Both good shows though.

Been watching Superstore on Netflix lately. Not bad light comedy entertainment when there is nothing else on and you just want to watch TV and not think.

Good mate watched the UK one first but prefers the US one...I've been mixing it up a bit, not the 2 versions but watching some other stuff like "tim winton's "breath" which I agreed with the bloke who recommended it, its only worth watching the first 1/2 unless your into drama. And Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel which was interesting, different, far from great but worth a watch. Was just good for me to watch something in contrast to what I'd been watching since the start of the year (the office). I'm up to season 5, probably will take a break before watching the UK version. But it only has 2 seasons, so won't take as long to get through.

C'mon he doesn't choke **** his mates missus to after half way .. It got very weird in the second half.
But agree first half was good. Overall It was pretty slow as a story.

Was going to start watching the Cecil hotel thing last week but can't remebr what I watched instead. Will have a look this week.

Lupin looks like it could be ok as well. Only one episode so far.

I found the Cecil hotel drawn out many parts were repeated. It took a longtime to get to the point at times.

Loved the first series of this, pretty sure the second will be smashing. And it's on I-View, free and easy.

I read an interview once asking some actor what is the difference between pommie and American actors. His reply was that the English hire the perfect person to play the part,while the Americans hire someone who looks perfect for the part...and I have to agree with that

I am an English humour fan from when I was kid watching shows with my mum ...guilty secret,I would never miss an episode of the bill on a Saturday night. The ridicule from friends could not sway me lol

I have been watching the wave warrior movies ...I have loved these as much as I did back in the day

Awesome watch if you can get your hands on a copy.
