Has anyone seen anything of FM, the local radio station sitcom that ITV2 are trailering?

I say trailering, theres a few tiny clips of it in that really annoying montage advertthat's on every adbreak.

Having endured years of working in a radio station I'm hoping for funny stuff. As for the DJ side of things I think the Big Train sketch where Simon Pegg's DJ has a room of young children writing gags for him sums it all up!

You can watch the first episode now via the ITV website...

I enjoyed it, but it's clearly not going to appeal to everyone as it is quite crude at times.

I finally got it working and really enjoyed it. All the characters are very likeable except for the guy who beatboxes, he's just annoying. I think it could be an enjoyable series.

I got quite pissed off with all the f**king adverts though!

P.S. Was "Aids" in Skins?

Love, love, LOVE Chris O'Dowd & Nina Sosanya so I'll definitely be checking it out. Looks alright. After No Heroics I'm feelling pretty positive about ITV2's output.

I'm waiting for this to come on TV before I watch it, but just from the trailer it looks like an improvement on the Channel 4 pilot, in particular the whole realism of it - there's not a single radio station I've worked at that looked as sleek and sophisticated as that one in the pilot did. Little details, but still...
