Fiiiinally watching this now. Only on episode one, but good stuff. And yes, Kate Ashfield is really rather pretty. :)

Some more details have been released about the forthcoming American version of the show (as previously reported). The lead role will be played by an African-American actor, Damon Wayans. It will be directed by Marc Buckland, who also directed "Scrubs" and "My Name is Earl".

The first few series of "My Wife & Kids" were funny, but that's all I really know about DW.

This show was a banal rip off of Curb. It got pretty small viewing figures and I'd be surprised if it got a second series. And it's portrait of addiction and alcoholism was clearly by somebody who has never had a problem with addiction or alcoholism.

And despite that, it was fantastic and I can't wait until it returns.

I reject the Curb ripoff theory, and also strongly welcome a return. :)

I must say it didn't remind me of Curb much at all.

Lead Balloon may have done, but I still don't think of even that as a 'rip off'.

They don't call me Mystic Chipolata for nothing. Look, I might be wrong, but the viewing figures started low and got lower. And as Beeb 2 already has Lead Balloon, which does the same sort of thing much better, I'd be very surprised if they recommissioned it.
