I can't believe there's not a thread for the new series.
I seriously am obsessed with this programme. Sir Digby Chicken-Ceaser is an immense character.
Anyone else excited... I believe it's Thursdays on BBC Two, from 11th June!

I hope the third series is more consistent than the patchy second.

It's quality. I was wondering how good it actually was as a sketch show the other week, then caught the repeats on Dave and realised it is actually *very* good and awfully clever. Which floats my boat
I don't really like the Sir Digby Chicken-Caesar sketches though. The 'Fish and Chip' sketch of last series is one of the best sketches ever, ever, ever! Awesomeness of the highest order!

I preferred the second series myself, looking forward to this new run.

Saw all the recordings for Series Three (yes, I am sad  ) and can tell you that, in my opinion at least, it's gonna knock spots off Series Two. C'mon the 11th...

It's definitely the best sketch show I've seen in many years.
Although Armstrong & Miller has its moments.
Looking forward to the new series.
Agree with most about the second series not quite scaling the heights of the first, but that Fish & Chip sketch was inspired.
That sounds interesting. Please, do tell me less,

I was very disappointed by the second series, but I'll probably take a peek at this.
One of my favourite sketches was this one from series 1:

From the preview reviews I've seen, this promises to be a much stronger series than 2.

I only watched Series 2 last week. I enjoyed it. But I already have no idea what sketch you're talking about.

I think he might be referring to the Chip and Pin sketch from series 1.
