It was really good, yeah. It felt like a last episode though?

Was anyone else expecting the rug to be pulled from under their feet? "I'm pregnant, it's not yours" ? "I'm not really pregnant, I just wanted to change the subject" ?

Think it's probably for the best it ends. The joke's are wearing thin, they killed horrible grandma, the other grandma's actress passed away and it was a pretty nice little wrap up to single them moving into a new phase of their life. So a natural end I thought.

Maybe just a special in the future when we see them trying to wrangle their own kids at Friday night dinner. But apart from that there's not much life left in it.

I didn’t realise that they paid tribute to Frances (nice grandma) at the end

This was an improvement over the last series, without a doubt. I kind of agree with Marsh though - there’s only so much they can do with the same jokes and they’ve now lost most of the good secondary characters (what with both grandmas now gone, Mr Morris too). It did kind of feel like it was the end (especially with them all momentarily dancing to the track from
the title/credits). Idk, I love the show but quite a lot of the latter episodes (especially from
the series before this one) had been 6/10 when the show at its peak was a solid 9.

It seems to be that the cast feel like this is the natural end whereas the writers want to see more

I rewatched the first couple of series on Netflix a couple of weeks ago. Still funny. Mr Morris, the burglar in the wardrobe, Buggy, the Mercedes woman. The later series never quite lived up to it.

The episode where they first meet Mr Morris is the best episode for me, period. I’ve rewatched it so many times but it never gets old. Genius.

The first episode I ever saw was the one when Jim came to dinner, and I had no idea what to expect.

I was just out of hospital at the time, and laughing or coughing hurt... I nearly considered switching it off and watching it when I was better
