835.2 | Thislowdownlife | VYGER::TENNANTM | | Tue Apr 15 1997 00:58 | 14 |
| It's about a group of trainee solicitors who share a flat. It tells of
their lives, loves and drinking habits. Two actually live together-
Millie and Egg, Egg has already had enough of being a solicitor,
preferring to be a layabout. Warren is gay and has a whole load of
baggage to deal with surrounding this ie his family's disapproval and a
series of doomed relationships. The other two, Miles and Anna, are in
love with one another but won't admit it, so they play constant cat and
mouse games- Iguess they'll get it together eventually. Anyhow. give it
a try, you'll not regret it.

I agree with .1 you'll probably love it or hate it. I love it. When
recommending it to others I describe it as what 'Friends' should have
been.
I watched series one and enjoyed that. I think this series is better.
21:45 BBC on Mondays. Watch it.

835.4 | Warren:what next? | VYGER::TENNANTM | | Fri Apr 25 1997 19:53 | 7 |
| I don't know about you but I'm enjoying the current development and
problems of Warren. I'm keen to find out where he goes next? I think he
may end up back at university or something far out like that, I do
think he's finished as a solicitor though.

835.5 | Now on Thursdays | MILE::JENKINS | | Thu May 08 1997 15:07 | 13 |

"Freshly perfumed poofta" Warren is now en route to Australia.
With Warren gone, there is a spare room in the flat and the competition is
hotting up to see who will get it. Warren looks to have promised it to
his one night stand Ferdy. Good time girl Kiera, post girl at the office
where Milli works is also in the running. And the blonde air head trainee
solicitor, Rachel, who works with Milli is also trying to ingratiate
herself with those sharing the flat. She will have at least one keen
supporter, Miles who wants to get into her knickers.
Follow the fun tonight, Thursday @21:30 on BBC 2

835.6 | It must be Kiera | VYGER::TENNANTM | | Thu May 08 1997 23:32 | 8 |
| Give the room to Kiera I say. What a lovely Kiera she is to! Ferdy is
boring and Rachel is to conniving, so Kiera really is the only choice
IMHO. Let's hope Anna gets to Miles before he gets to Rachel or all
hell will break loose. Great stuff at the moment, can't wait to see my
videotape of tonights.

835.7 | "What?" | CHEFS::CROSSA | Punks jump up to get beat down | Fri May 09 1997 09:29 | 8 |
| So, Ferdy gets the room, I thought Joe might have gone for it.
The scene with Kiera after she had eaten the bicuits had me rolling
about though.

835.8 | Stoned Immaculate! | VYGER::TENNANTM | | Sun May 25 1997 23:32 | 9 |
| What kind of a caniving, bum-licking plonker is Rachel. I hope she gets
what she deserves, a slap on the kisser.
Loved the comic capers trying to hide the grass when the police arrived
looking for Ferdy, Egg was brilliant trying to look sober when he was
stoned out of his face. More please!

| Millie's got ideas above her station and I think Rachel's a little
dodgy, although I can't quit put my finger on it. I'm sure she's got
some skeletons somewhere.

835.10 | Help! | MILE::JENKINS | | Tue May 27 1997 15:38 | 6 |

I missed what Milli said to O'Donnell right at the end. Can someone
enlighten me?
Ta.
Richard.
|
835.11 | What is Millis problem? | CHEFS::CROSSA | Punks jump up to get beat down | Tue May 27 1997 16:03 | 8 |
| She turned the Paris trip down, found out Rachel was going instead, and
then went back to O'donnell saying she wanted to go. He blew her out
after a few, potentially meaningful, glances were exchanged.
HTH
Stretch.
|
835.12 | Has Milli got Egg on her face? | MILE::JENKINS | | Tue May 27 1997 16:16 | 8 |
|
Ooh err. Does the two faced ingratiating Rachel get to bed O'Donnell or
will Miles win the race?
Ta.
Richard.

835.13 | The rampant homophobe comes out! | CHEFS::CROSSA | Punks jump up to get beat down | Tue May 27 1997 16:52 | 5 |
| What, Miles and O'Donnell get it together?!?!?!?
Stretch.
|
835.14 | Anna......ooh la la.... | VYGER::TENNANTM | | Tue May 27 1997 23:17 | 8 |
| Looks like we're back to Miles and Anna this week, have just seen the
trailer and it looks interesting. The trailer followed Anna backed with
"She's A Star" by James, fairly apt I thought. Waiting patiently for
Thursday night.....not!

| Don't think Miles was too happy about it.
Chriso
|
835.17 | Miles drops one! | VYGER::TENNANTM | | Mon Jun 02 1997 21:13 | 7 |
| Yep, and I think he's dropped himself right in the s#@t by lying that
he voted for her. I bet we hear more about that!

835.18 | Will Mili finish up with Egg on her face? | MILE::JENKINS | | Tue Jun 03 1997 14:37 | 10 |
|
re .last
Reckon so.... could be the end of a stormy friendship between Miles
and Anna? Nice one Kira!
I thought last weeks episode was great and a happy ending too. That is
*so* unusual on tv at the moment.
Richard.

835.19 | | COMICS::SUMNERC | OpenVMS Counter Intelligence | Tue Jun 03 1997 14:45 | 5 |
| Think that Egg would be better with Nicky personally. Mili is a little
bit tetchy these days.
Chris
|
835.20 | Or should that be WAS | TERRI::SIMON | Semper in Excernere | Tue Jun 03 1997 15:10 | 4 |
| I haven't seen any, is this series fictional or
a fly-on-the-wall documentary?

835.21 | Egg on her face? Julian Clary couldn't do better Richard | CHEFS::CROSSA | Punks jump up to get beat down | Tue Jun 03 1997 15:12 | 8 |
| I only got round to watching last weeks episode last night, highly
enjoyable as usual with the funniest line probably going to
Kira...."My parents are in Tenerife!" closely followed by the "I'm
going to change my name to Benedict".
Stretch.
|
835.22 | Flies, certainly not! | VYGER::TENNANTM | | Tue Jun 03 1997 21:25 | 13 |
| Re.20
This series is totally fictitious. No flies on the wall here
thankfully! Do give it a watch though Simon its ab-fab.
Just this weeks trailer, Ferdy falls for the plumber when he calls to
do some repairs, sounds like fun!

835.23 | How much will the landlord pay for Ferdy's servicing? | CHEFS::CROSSA | Punks jump up to get beat down | Fri Jun 06 1997 15:45 | 5 |
| Well that must redefine the word/role of handyman!
