No. It says "the content you are trying to access is not currently available for viewing as it has expired, been removed or is restricted to another territory". No problem watching anything else though.

Just saw this show for the first time (been living abroad) .. and absolutely love it!! Best comedy I've seen on RTE for a long time!

omahaid

Ah christ I enjoyed that in tears now

WolfForager

Hmm dunno, thought it was pretty weak in comparison to last weeks show..

Spunog UIE

I have never liked this guy, thought he was a bit of a git. But this new show is fantastic, some of the sketches are hilarious.

DLB

Way worse than last week - IMO

Big Game

Not as good as last weeks. Still had it's moments though, having worked in London 20 years back I could relate to that part of the taxi drivers head!

Still decent tonight, last weeks was best of the series so far though.

Boxfresh

Just seen the end of it tonight. Good show!

Odd, I thought last weeks was the poorest of the series so far and this one right up there with the best.

Maybe a bit too close to the bone for you racist homophobic taxi drivers :-)

I love this show..dead funny, really clever and original imo:).

homerun_homer

Not the best episode but very true points made but just not too funny.

Who was that sketch about - Blaithnid or Miriam? I used to think it was supposed to be Miriam cause of the kids but the red wig messes that up. Maybe she's a blend of both.

I'm still laughing

First bad ep of series 2 tonight,not too many laughs at all.

Mike Wilmot on Stand and Deliver is pretty awesome though.

ThisRegard

I'm not getting people not finding this weeks episode too funny, how could people not laugh at the nervous father thinking aloud being able to do chin-ups on his daughters boyfriends lad, or the Chinese guy at the end.

youngblood

I thought I was gonna actually wet myself tonight,

Excellent Episode

Vincent Vega

There were a fair few funny moments, but for me it was the first mediocre ep this series.
By far the weakest.
Wasn't as consistent as the previous 3 episodes or any ep in series 1 for that matter.
Though saying that, still can't wait for next weeks.:)

Mr.Nice Guy

I likewise didn't find this as funny as previous episodes.

Anyone know who your one was supposed to be, doing the interview with the ethiopian famine activist?

And who was the famine activist btw? It wasn't BOD's wife was it?

(I don't watch TV really except for the savage eye)

zuroph

Blaithhhhhhnaid.

Exclamation Marc

I find some of this weeks material the best of the series, yet some of the other material the worst of the series so it was a really topsy-turvy week.

The Catholic/Protestant sitcom sketch dragged on waaaaaaaay too long, as did the black v Irish getting a job in England.

Whereas the father meeting the daughters black boyfriend was hysterical.

Amongst others

zuroph

spot on summary I think.

guitarzero

I think its hilarious at times. His cut on the Irish is often done with precision and he does extremity with a bit of tact, I think its gas so....pfff, simple people indeed.

Now there is one hell of a mental image!

ricero

its getting better every week and to think i use to hate this show

Voodoomelon

Agreed, the weakest episode so far, the taxi was the best bit with savage in the back!

The copy on RTE Player is appalling quality for some reason...

The interviewer was Blaithnaid. I don't think the activist was supposed to be anyone in particular.

It seemed very low quality when I watched it too.

Are the Pat Kenny sketches actually word for word true???? I know this weeks definitely was and i wasn't sure what the dervla o rourke one was about, but now i'm guessing it really happened too??

jayteecork

Looks fine on rte player via ps3.

For some reason there's no sound on full screen mode when I play it on pc.
