Sorry I meant to say "the classical actor Timothy West"!
As for Lucy, as I mentioned, I hadn't seen the first series so I don't have the "baggage" of considering Lucy to be a disappointing substitute for the female lead - as some posters seem to think!

They're bitter. Very, very bitter, for a number of reasons!

During the recording of the Christmas episode, Lee came out and entertained the audience during a costume change. He was drinking a can of lager dressed as a policeman. Enough said! He invited questions and someone asked if there would be a third series. A worried look came over his face and my heart sank. Surely this can't be the end of the road for the best mainstream sitcom the BBC have commissioned for over a decade? Certainly the Montreux Rose and the recent comedy nominations should help influence the BBC positively despite the current vicious axe wielding.

Yes, was there myself. I've come to the conclusion now that Auntie would actually have to have flipped her lid to not commission more. Was an interesting response though!

'a can of lager dressed as a policeman' - ah, that sounds sweet
 

For all of those wondering when the team will find out if there is to be a third series, Lee Mack said tonight at his show in York that they should be hearing in the next week. Lets hope it's good news! He was also asked if he would be in the third series and he said it would be the same cast. Hope that helps a little!

Q
 

Quentin, thanx for the update! I can't wait to hear the good news
 

It would simply be madness not to recommission the show. A popular show that increasing in viewers that the cast and crew are willing to continue making. They've got to recommission it.

I noticed that Andrew's posting is later in the day than previously but then I realised he's on the 10pm shift at 6 Music.
 

And I thought they just went to the loo during songs.

I listen to the songs during songs! (And occasionally keep up with forums.)
 

You heard it here first folks, Andrew Collins has a strong bladder.

Or a bag and ingenious patent-pending series of pipes and funnels underneath the desk.

The BBC will be taking the piss if they don't commission a third series of NGO!
