Anyone know if these are brand new episodes or repeats of a former series? I can't find the info on that anywhere

Either way, they're likely to induce suicide upon realising that they mark the end of comedic television.

It is a new series. Shame its being moved from BBC One Scotland to BBC Two. I presume its because network are taking it as well?

Classic programme. A lot of the English and Welsh "don't get it" though.

If I remember right, it was shown in Scotland first (on BBC One Scotland - Friday nights).

Ok I'll believe you there new. BTW its not 'that' good but I consider it the most recent half decent comedy gem tucked away that no-one know's about (south of Hadrian's Wall) far superior than un-funny tripe like 'Home Again' and 'According To Bex' Rolling Eyes

Buts its no 'Only Fools & Horses' or 'Open All Hours' Wink

The last series was shown on BBC Two too. I'm glad it has made a return - probably by far one of the most successful scottish comedies as a whole in a good while.

I tried watching Still Game, not my thing, though I'll let others to enjoy it, without going OT here, why is it that the BBC (or any UKTV channel) never repeat Rab C.Nesbitt, easily the best sitcom to come out of BBC Scotland. Confused:

Rab C lot better than Feel The Force IMO

Never seen Still Game though.

Is it one like Rab C, where us Sassanachs have to put 888 on, to understand what they're on about?
