    Anyone else watching this?

    I caught part of the original series, but it always clashed with other things, now the BBC are reshowing it and I'm hooked. It is cringworthy at times, because the children's lines are completely ad libbed and often you can see the cogs spinning, but they do come out with little gems -

    "She called me a 'mother-fudger'. What's one of those, mum?"
    "Well, it's a mother....made out of fudge."



    Daughter holding a funeral for a mouse - the grave marker reads: Killed by mummy:
    "And here's some cheese and bread for Heaven. Or if you go down to Hell at least you'll have cheese on toast"

    It's had rave reviews this so I must tr to catch it. It's just the words sit-com and family put me off because of all those other ones preceding it over the years.

    How weird! A stranger in the Post Office queue was trying to persuade me to watch this programme, just a couple of hours ago. She talked to me about it for half an hour. (It was a long queue.) Apparently the youngest in it is just like my little girl. Now I have to check it out just in case - though I know my girl's unique.

    Oh hee hee, Luisa, my mum told me the same thing on the phone earlier, saying that the youngest girl reminded her of my 4 year old.

    I must try and watch it - I hadn't heard of it before.
