Hi! Great site! I am a huge two pints fan and sometimes I think i'm the only one! This show shud be much more popular than it is! Although, hopefully, the way the third series is goin at the moment, it might be a bit more popular when its shown on BBC2! Coz ppl who don't like it, for some reason, they still seem to keep on watchin it! I'd say thats pretty sad! Anyway, I love the third series! Funniest moment so far wud be last weeks episode and Jonny in a wedding dress! lol! hilarious! I'm hoping there's gonna be a fourth series as well! I hope Janet & Jonny get married before the end of this series! It'll be great to have a two pints wedding! Although, i've noticed they've left a few storylines unfinished. For example, Gaz & Jonny never sorted out their argument about who was gonna be best man! And we never found out what happened between Flo and Janet's dad. Although I spose we might do before the series finishes. Anyway. as I said, great site! Keep up the good work! I have a two pints site of my own at: mywebpage.netscape.com/stebb2003uk/twopints.html It aint as good as this site but plz check it out anyway! thanks!

All I can say is, "this is the best programme the Beeb has done since Fawlty Towers, and I think it even beats that." So pleased I have Sky so I can watch it on BBC Three and don't have to wait for BBC Two to catch up. It just keeps getting better "Fan - Bloody - Tastic"

Hi ILoveTwoPints,
I know what you mean, its such a classic comedy yet most people either never heard of it or say they don't like it but seem to know a lot about it!!! I too love the scene with Jonny in the wedding dress - I tape the episodes and keep replaying that scene sad I know but its so damn funny and the song goes so well. Lets hope they do make more.

I have all episodes on tape as well! One thing I love about two pints is the actors will do anything, as long as they get a few laughs out of it! And apparently they're all good mates in real life as well! I dunno how Susan Nickson manages to write so many great episodes without any help, she's only in her early twenties as well and u wudnt believe she's never written a show before! My mate at skool is a Two Pints fan but he hasnt seen any of the new series yet coz he doesn't have BBC3, and its so tempting to tell him what happens and tell him about all the funniest bits, but I wudnt wanna spoil it for him! Also, what does everyone think of Munch? the new character? I think he's very funny and surprisingly more popular than Tad from Neighbours. He's a brilliant new comedy character and he really does suit his daft name!

I don't know how Susan does it either she's fantastic - it just gets funnier and funnier. I love Munch he's so funny especially that laugh of his, another great scene was his first when he just kinda said hi in that funny way. David's not as funny maybe cos I still see him as Tad in Neighbours and his character isn't as dopey as Munch. I hope we see more of Janet's dad cos he was funny carry on the story of him and Flo. You'll have to get your friend round and let him watch your video's. I'm glad they've done ten this time cos it would have finished now!!!

Thats a good point actually Sarah! We've had the first six episodes so it wud have finished by now! I've been thinkin of either gettin my mate to come round and watch the video, or either lending it to him! I can't wait til it comes on BBC2, coz then we'll find out properly what ppl think of it! Coz it doesnt get noticed as much when its shown on BBC3. Although it is one of the most popular shows on the channel! I can't wait for tonights episode. I wonder if Jonny will sleep with his supervisor, and cause a bit of a problem for the wedding at the last minute? It cud be like one of those Coronation Street style weddings, where Janet finds out at the last minute that Jonny has cheated on her! Although its not as if Janet hasnt cheated on Jonny before! lol! I think I get a bit too much into the show sometimes!

So what did you think - would've been funnier if he had of slept with her but guess Jonny's not like that yet would've thought he'd have hit a lass lol but I think I'd have hit her too how annoying (& weird) was she!! I think I probably get a bit to much into it as well but hey why not!! Did you notice at the beginning where it shows what happened last episode it showed what happened in episode one instead of the last episode. I think David should get introduced to the lads maybe he'd be a bit funnier around them.

Well i'm not sure its a case of "Jonny's not like that" but i think its just a case of Jonny wouldn't sleep with someone as ugly as that! lol! To tell you the truth, i'd have been tempted to hit that woman as well, she was very irritating! I'm leavin skool in May so i'll have to think about gettin a job myself! I'll have to remember now, not to get a job in a DIY shop! It doesn't look like there's anythin happening in next weeks episode that stands out too much, but i'll still look forward 2 it anyway! I think the whole of the series so far has been buildin up to Jonny & Janet's wedding, so if there is a wedding, then David will probably meet the lads there. I wonder if Janet will beat him up again? ;D Anyway, one thing I always think about is why isn't Flo featured in the show more often, I'd say she's the funniest character and she only gets about two scenes per show if she's lucky. I spose its coz you can't have too much of a good thing! It obviously doesn't bother Beverly Callard as she wudnt keep comin back for another series if it did! Something else I always think about as well is, If Jonny is unemployed, and Janet only works in a bakery, how can they afford the house? And where does Jonny get the money from for his beer? I spose its just somethin the writer has just put in there to confuse us! I can't believe this series is nearly over already! Only three more episodes left!

I was wondering that myself - about Janet and Jonny been able to afford there house!!! All I can say is its one bloody good bakery job maybe you should get a job there lol!!! I really love Flo too she is always so funny wasn't it hilarious when she said she was thinking of the kids when she was flashing at the drivers so slow them down I think we should see more of Flo and Munch than Louise and David, hey maybe Flo could get with Munch lol now that would be scary. Are you Steve Barton from the BBC message boards? I'm Fluffy Muff on there. I wonder if they'll release the second series on video, it was this time last year when they released the first series - maybe there waiting for this series to end!! I email the BBC all the time but they never get back to me - everyone else seems to get replies lol

Yeah, I am Steve Barton on the BBC boards! How did you know that? I agree Flo and Munch together would be a bit scary! Flo and Louise together would be a bit odd as well(Well not actually together, but u know what i mean!lol!)! I agree it was very funny when Flo said she stood naked at her window to slow the cars down! Another one of my favourite moments was in the first episode of series 3 when Donna said "It must be really upsetting finding out you've got relatives you never even knew about!" The look on Flo's face then was just brilliant! To be honest, the very first time I saw the show, I thought Flo's house and Janet & Jonny's house was all one house! I thought it was actually Flo's house and Donna, Janet & Louise just hung out in the lounge while Flo sat in the kitchen watchin TV in the same house! But that was after seein only one episode! I think the reason I thought that was coz the first thing i thought about was how Janet & Jonny cud afford that house! Maybe I shud work in Janet's bakery, it obviously pays a lot! lol! I have emailed the BBC before as well about the second series comin out on video and they never replied either! Which is odd coz they've always replied when i've emailed them before! Maybe they're just unsure about this.

It was just a lucky guess!! I was reading your posts on the BBC board and some of the things where kinda similar to what you've posted here. You also emailed me to let me know series three was starting it said your name on there and your email address is the same as what you've registered on here. Flo's expressions are really funny. I never really liked Beverley Callard much in Corrie but she is ace in Two Pints. I met her once, one of the teachers at my junior school was her sister so she was a guest at the summer fair I wasn't really interested though cos back then I'd have prefered Kylie of Jason or some other sad pop bands that was around back then lol. I only really watched Two Pints at first cos I was a big Hollyoaks fan and I loved Will Mellor and Natalie Casey in it. I still think there ace too.

Oh yeah, I have emailed u before about the new series, I remember now! I'm not sure i've ever mentioned this on the BBC boards or anythin, but Will Mellor used to go to my skool! He lived just round the corner from us and worked in our local pub! My brother knows him apparently! Altho, despite that, i've never actually met him! He's gettin a bit more popular now after Fame Academy and everythin so hopefully that will make ppl notice two pints a bit more when it comes on BBC2! To tell you the truth, I never watched two pints when it originally aired, I only noticed it about this time last year, when BBC Choice(BBC3 as its called now) were repeatin the whole of Series 1 an a saturday night(I'm very boring, so I spend most of my saturday nights in, I don't spend them watch Last Of The Summer Wine videos tho! and I was just flicking through the channels and there was nothing else on so i thought i'd watch it as one of my mates at skool told me it was pretty good, so I did, and ever since then, i've loved it! I seem to know everythin about it now! Speaking of Beverly Callard, I think i was probably the only person who actually really liked Liz McDonald in Corrie! I heard quite a while ago that Bev was plannin to return to Corrie as Liz McDonald, and apparently Liz will have a bit of a fallout with Karen! But i've not heard anything since then, and considerin Steve & Karen had a big fallout in last night's episode, They probably won't get back together now! Sorry for talking about corrie! I think Bev is a lot better in Two Pints tho, I loved the "Valve-itis" thing the other week! lol!

I think I remember hearing that too about Bev going back to Corrie as Liz. Thats cool maybe Will come back to your school and sing you know like some of these popstars do I guess he'd better be quick though if your leaving in May lol. If you live anywhere near Glouchshire (bad spellin) then Will is singing at the Jumpin Jacks club there sometime at the end of April I think its 27th I think. I live no where near there so I go no chance of getting to see him. Ralf Little was in the pantomine at the theatre just down the road to me and this lad I know worked there and went out drinking with Ralf but that was like ages ago when he was doing Royle Family so I wasn't that bothered back then now I'd be like trying to get his autograph or stalk him or summet lol just kiddin. Maybe if more people get into Two Pints cos of Will and the Fame Academy thing they might release them on DVD. You know you mentioned on you site about a book I had a look on Amazon and they are releasing an audiobook cd thingy in July couldn't find nothing on a script book though. They've done all them for The Royle Family and that only had three series and as much as I like it its not as good as Two Pints.

Well, I only really guessed it may be a script book. I havent found out from anywhere that it actually is. It would be good if it was a script book, altho there's now been so many episodes that it would be hard to fit all scripts into one book! I spose we'll have to wait til July! I noticed on your site somewhere you said there should be a Two Pints CD released and all the songs that shud be on it, that's actually a good idea! Although books, cds, etc for comedy shows don't regurlarly get released and Two Pints, for some strange reason, isn't the most popular show on tele! And, I agree, The Royle Family isnt as good as Two Pints! I only watched it coz Ralf was in it! And you're right as well, it wud be great if Will came back to our skool to sing or something, maybe for the prom or the leavers assembly! It's actually quite strange being taught by the same teachers that Will Mellor was taught by! And the 27th is a day before my birthday so it wud be nice to see Will singing but i don't really live too near Gloucestershire(I think thats what you meant wasn't it?) I'd love to go to the filming of Two Pints so I cud actually meet Will and the rest of the guys but it's filmed in London! Which couldn't be more inconvenient when you live in Manchester! I'm also desperate to find out if Louise(Kathryn Drysdale) actually talks like that in real life as well! lol!

Yeah thats what I meant lol mind went completely blank couldn't think out to spell it duh Anyway got a reply back from BBC about Two Pints series two video release this is what they said: To ascertain the possibility of a video release of the second series of this programme in the future, please contact BBC Worldwide, the commercial arm of the BBC at bbcproducts@galleon.co.uk. So I think that means they don't have any plans to release it but if they get enough people asking maybe they will. I have contacted BBC Worldwide asking so hopefully I'll find out soon. I'd love to go watch it been filmed too, I tried to get tickets to see series three being filmed but I was too late they'd all gone. I bet you get certain people who'll go watch anything even if they don't like it they just do it cos its free. Which is a bummer for all those real fans who wanna go lol!!! Its far from where I live too in Halifax but I'd make sure I'd get there even if it means staying over in a hotel for the night it would make a nice little mini break too.
