I saw the programme and the material in episode 1 was sometimes cringeworthy and going down the road of, for example the old programme The Brittas empire, which seems to deteriorate and run out of steam rather quickly.J_on_tourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05469200077815953611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244476622175417322.post-85563801152436235272010-08-03T12:05:32.520+01:002010-08-03T12:05:32.520+01:00Apart from what I said before (naffness, flatness,...Apart from what I said before (naffness, flatness, etc) it also upset me as it reinforced the stereo-typical 'ramblers' as being inadequate human beings in various different ways. <br />I'm not sure calling it 'The Great Outdoors' was a welcome move either.....Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16317036646487413481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244476622175417322.post-34038129900008084342010-08-02T16:05:59.500+01:002010-08-02T16:05:59.500+01:00Tell us more ...

Both seem to be written by people who have a superficial knowldege of these 'activities' but not sufficient insight to poke some real fun at them. Maybe the characters will develop some more in the remaining two episodes. Or perhaps they should try turning it off and back on again.Tony Bennetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11587011681927202159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244476622175417322.post-11512500895305789622010-07-29T18:30:01.381+01:002010-07-29T18:30:01.381+01:00Let's not beat about the bush - it was dreadfu...Let's not beat about the bush - it was dreadful! <br />Script and main characters lacked any 'ooomph' - and the story line was weak and flat.<br />When I said 'teensy weensy' I was trying to be kind!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16317036646487413481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244476622175417322.post-16100595073269367752010-07-29T11:10:31.592+01:002010-07-29T11:10:31.592+01:00I am sorry to say i watched it too.
