First two series were excellent, third was okay and I thought it had dropped a lot in quality in series four. Lots of the best original characters have left now and it doesn't feel the same.

Ditto, I think I only watched up to series 3.

I can understand the off putting style of the show, but really, if you must, laugh at them, not with.

In my face! I mean your Face!
 

I personlly enjoy the new characters and am really looking forward to all 16 episodes!
I'll miss shelia , but im sure there will be enough new and development of old to carry it off.
 

I wish they hadn’t stretched it out to 16 episodes give me quality over quantity any day, it’s why I tend not to enjoy US TV.

Yup, as MikeW says - the new series is scheduled to start on the 1st January (but it'll be on MySpace before then if you're really keen).

DITTO! on this one.

Two of my favourite English progs in 2006/7 have to be Saxondale & Shameless.

I agree that too many of the original cast have gone. Series 1 and 2 were amazing, though.
 

I quite like the Maguires, i think they add a lot to the show. However, i don't like Monica and Norma, i think they take away a lot of the show. And i miss Sheila. Regardless of this, i am looking forward to series five tomorrow.
 

I bloody hate this show.

It's not remotely realistic and certainly isn't funny. It's just caricatures fighting and swearing. I've never managed to sit through more than about 5 minutes.

Badly written and dull and in no way the brilliant TV it's billed as.

A bit too good.
 

I've never watched more than 5 minutes either.

Which means my opinion doesn't count at all!

Still hate it though.

Out of all the BSG members who need to realise that, I wouldn't have said that you were one.

This is my favourite series of all time. I can't get enough of Paul Abbott's stuff.
I was a little disappointed with last weeks ep though, but the clips shown of tonights ep look funny/good

I love the way they just disposed of Lip by making it normal for him to chose uni over his wife and child. Especially as they spent a lot of last series showing how he'd do anything to be with her.

I didn't really like the 'fat wife' episode, but maybe they've set their standards too high as its one of my favourite shows.

Also it seems like the camper van lesbo and Debbie don't really have a lot to do. I think there are too many 'main' characters now.
