Anyone watch Tales of Suburbia before Christmas?

Do you think The Good Life could be remade, with me or Dave playing Tom Good (maybe not!)? If you have seen something on TV or heard something on the radio recently that you want to talk about, tell us here.

I have a couple of DVDs doing the rounds for folks who want to see it; it's quite an eye opener, even if you didn't particularly want to see me on it :mrgreen: Let me know, and I'll lend it to you when it winds its way back to me.

I did watch this programme, but there was a lady who ate nothing but chocolate, one who talked to fairies and another who entered loads of competitions and kept winning holiday and cars. No-one who made soap!?! So I was very confused!

You might have blinked and missed the relevent bit - Mrs L stood out in her garden wearing a pair of goggles. Does that ring a bell?

No, it was about the three women I mentioned. Maybe there was more than one episode? Was it a series?
