Whereas Dermot Bannon is, eh......

Dermot Bannon wrecks my head. I'm sure he's a nice person but he annoys the hell out of me, for some reason.

Dermot Bannon should have been brought in to sort out the lighting problems in Quirke...

Yep, think so. I vaguely remember the lady now that I see it

Beautiful house.

Loved the episode. For once there was some follow up shown. Sorry to hear the lady was ill. Wishing them both all the best. The house is lovely.

Delighted to see At Your Service back again tonight.

But was it a repeat, or is it a new series? I hadn't seen this one before so no idea. Hopefully a new series!

Pretty sure it was a repeat as the opening took place in 2012. I wasn't sure if I'd seen it before but thought it seemed vaguely familiar! Great publicity for them at this time of year.

Ah - have recorded it and am only watching it back now, didn't know about the opening in 2012!

Looks like a really lovely spot.

I can see it now

Bank Manager: "And this Boarding House you want to set up, with the Internet People, your projections for the first two years show you losing an alarming amount of money ..."

BabysCoffee: "Oh Yes, that's the point. We don't want the business to be making any money, we want to be just hanging on. If we become profitable Francis and John won't be interested in coming down.

Bank Manager: :eek::eek::eek:

This is a great show for Sunday Night.

Francis is a caricature of himself, and really makes the show.

Are these guys really brothers?

But tonight is a feckin repeat! I know, watched them all.

I reserve a special hate in my heart for hydrangeas - no idea why, as they featured large in various places in my childhood, but I've always hated them.

Yer wan's wedding dress is a bit low cut for my liking!

Thought the counting was funny he counted the front row and 3different drink types .

I think with something like that you have to choose what "most people would like"... Something that doesnt completely polarize the audience, like those black tablecloths which some will love but a substantial amount will absolutely hate...

here's the update..
