The royal bodyguard

[cmonbarrybringonwoody!]

Anyone watching this shit? Truely awful, how can they get rid of shooting stars and comission this dogshit? Baffled.com

 

[Bozza]

Why did David Jason take this role? Did he see it as a reprise of Delboy, as that's how he seems to be playing it.

Will we get a "cushty" soon?

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Thanks for confirming my instinctive feeling that NSC was going to be more entertaining. I might give Mrs Brown a chance in 10 minutes, though.

 

[public school boy]

Just switched off, awful

I might give Mrs Brown a chance in 10 minutes, though.

Is that some sort of euphemism? Brace yourself, Roz.

 

[Bozza]

Was it an attempt at a British Frank Drebin?

 

[Ringmer Seagull]

Had been looking forward to this. Very disappointed. Stopped watching after 10 mins. Truly dire.

 

[Lady Gull]

That Bodyguard thing was truly awful - I'm surprised he agreed to be in that tripe!!!

Mrs Brown was funny in parts

 

[Fef]

I was looking forward to this, but found it to be so disappointing; a mish mash of many previous programmes - mostly involving Rowan Atkinson.

Mrs Brown was feckin' brilliant, and more than made up for it. One of the best bits of Christmas TV.

 

[Landgull]

I agree with previous posters very poor indeed. I also kept the TV on whilst waiting for MOTD and watched Mrs Brown, again very poor. Should have saved my energy bill and switched the TV off as that would have been far more enjoyable.

 

[wunt be druv]

Watched the first 10mins or so and it was utter bollocks,got so bored I nearly answered the Wife when she spoke to me.

 

[Giraffe]

Reminded me oh Johnny English but just not very funny sadly as I like David Jason.

 

[Doc Lynam]

This is how slapstick is done. (click youtube in centre if you want to watch)

The Royal Bodyguard was truly awful.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Saw a bit of that last night. Was amazed David Jason agreed to be in it. He must have read the scripts first? It was truly terrible.

I have much better hopes for Great Expectations on BBC1 tonight though. Ray Winstone & Gillian Anderson. Should be good.

 

[Publius Ovidius]

Was it an attempt at a British Frank Drebin?

It appeared to me as a cross between frank dreben and inspector clousseaux.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Amazing news, everyone, this turd of a show turns out not to be a one off, but a SERIES

Part two is on tonight for those who want to marvel at just how bad it is. I'm stunned the BBC haven't just canned it, to be honest.

 

[ArcticBlue]

I didn't watch it and still say it's shit. That's just how bad it is.
