Mrs Brown's boys is for thickies

[errant]

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Mrs Browns Boys. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer’s head.

i underestimated my dead nana's IQ then...

It still amazed me that people voted leave without all the possible facts presented to them.
I suspect there were too many people who either swallowed lies, or were genuinely bigoted

I know the British Empire wasn't the kindest to us Irish. But to inflict Mrs. Browns Boys on you is just going too far!

Do they all not get done by other companies ?

I didn’t and think it’s garbage , the jokes !! and one liners were going around 20 + years ago !

I think Fleabag is purely BBC.
Since BBC3 went online they seem to have done quite a bit, but I can't say I've ever watched any of it

Blame Dodgy Dave and his colleagues, uncertainty is not a reason to leave.

Well that's 100% their fault, they blame that bus, absolute bollocks.

I think I know one person who voted leave because he genuinely thought it would be the best thing for him and his family.
He's a self employed graphic designer.

We haven't even left yet though.

Indeed. And at this rate - as there's no date to leave by now (correct me if I'm wrong there) - I can see there being a potential of it not even happening at the rate things are going.

This thread could do with being moved to The Politics Forum!

Mrs Browns Boys is shite. Each episode is literally a dozen old jokes made into sketches.

I watched one episode a few years back and recognised 4 old jokes within the first 10 minutes. The writers should be shot imo. It's not original at all. I'm surprised they haven't been sued for ripping off stand-up comedians' material tbh.
