Bump - absolutely brilliant sitcom. I think it will go down as the way we see 80s ones now.
It did have some really good episodes and some cracking lines, but it went massively downhill when a) Tim Vine left and b) they made Lee and Lucy a couple.

Found the character of Daisy the stupid one a bit boring. Like a female trigger tribute act. Everything she said was a joke, the genius of trigger was you expected him to say the opposite of his punchline.

Absolutely this. It's been going steadily downhill & I thought the last series was dreadful
I think Lee Mack is excellent and very quick witted as I have witnessed watching him on Would I lie to you live three times. I just think the married with kids character doesn't work so well for the premise of the comedy. The earlier seasons were fantastic.
The first episode of the current series with the penis enlarger was one of the funniest things I've seen in years, was in tears of laughter watching that!

I loved it, for the missus was just too cringing ( too close to home??? ). That'll be the last time we watch it then...

For the record - my wife didn't see me posting this.

I stopped watching soon after Tim Vine left, he was such an important character as the link between Lee and Lucy. It seemed that they made Daisy extra stupid to compensate
Think it lost its magic after they got together; far better when he was doing the chasing and Tim Vine was in it. Think Semi Detached is better, but in the light of the comments above will give it a go again.
Big fan of Lee Mack, and use to love this show but it derailed when Tim Vine left and then the introduction of kids imo. I watched the penis enlarger episode and it was so cringe worthy i ended up stop watching. I think the old episodes are on youtube, they’re great.

I’m with you here. I stopped watching after a while.
I didn’t know it was still going to be honest, so the number of positive comments makes me want to give it another go.
I don’t actually know how far I got, but I guess I’ve got quite a bit to catch up!

All the old episodes are on iplayer, which I discovered after the very first episode got autoplayed at me after I'd been watching something else. I ended up watching a few random ones to see how we got from the first series with the American woman to where they are now, and I particularly enjoyed the Drunk one:

Agree the kids coming into it was damaging and I think that’s why they’re barely in it now. That said , the episode were they were all driving to the ferry port and having telephone conversations with the operator played by Rob Brydon was superb

"...when it comes to tele..." Who am I kidding.
i personally think the one on the airplane (even with Daisy) is the best episode.
