The Thick Of It series 2

Did you see the ep tonight.:eek:
I know there one more ep to air so it will be interesting to see how he will come back.
 
I never got round to seeing the first season or In the Loop. Incidentally, there have been so many plaudits for TTOI that it's hard to believe that the current one is only the second proper series of it.

I'm loving this series and intend to buy the previous installments on DVD (or get the wife to do so for Xmas). Tucker is absolutely brilliant - Capaldi deserves every award he's got and more. The rest of the cast are also superb and the script is amazing. Never know there were so many inventive ways to insult people.

Be interesting to see how they bring Malcolm back next week - then again, Alastair Campbell is currently advising the government, so resignations are never the end for these guys. I wonder also if they'll be able to keep it going if there's a change of government next year - Malcolm in oppositon could be fun too.
 
Just watching this week's episode. Glad to see the BBC haven't chickened out and had it toned down, considering the recent comedy standards shite.

I suppose if it has another series they could shift focus to the opposition who we see occasionally see, and have the current characters show up a bit more often than the existing opposition characters.
 
This series has been superb week-in, week-out. How will Malcolm get back in? Bloody vengeance? Join the opposition? I'd love that - Peter Mannion is one of my favourite characters in the whole show. Having him and Malcolm on the same side... yes.

The best one this series, well before this week's, was the episode with Richard Bacon and the radio show.
