    Default '2012' 17.07.2012

    Sublime! Snappy dialogue, Sally's (as yet?) unrequited feelings for Ian beautifully conveyed by Olivia Colman, and a lovely cameo from Nicholas Jones.

    It is nestling on the hard drive, waiting for a less busy evening when it can be enjoyed to the full

    The other way round, surely? I'm assuming the '2012' scripts were written, and the programmes made, well before the current G4S shambles and associated cock-ups - or should that be cocks-up? - came along to provide further entertainment.

    It's quite uncanny - the lost coach due to SatNav was broadcast April 2011 but it actually happened this week, last night's episode re the rebranding of womens football coincided with the announcement yesterday about football ..... next week's episode (I won't give the plot away) god forbid that really is a possibility. I do wish they'd repeated the first series before these last 3 programmes for those who missed it first time around. A brilliantly funny programme.

    Anna - what we're now seeing are apparently episodes 5 to 7 of Series 2. However, I agree that a repeat of episodes 1 to 4, or indeed of all the previous episodes, would demonstrate the BBC's continuing commitment to the principle of public-service broadcasting.

    One hopes that after The Lord Coe's five-ring circus has moved out of town, Ian Fletcher's 'Deliverance Commission' in tandem with 'Perfect Curve' can be redeployed to put some other aspect of public life out of its misery. There are many candidates. Maybe it could be renamed the 'Banking Probity Deliverance Commission'. Like. Yeah. Totally. Shuddup.
