    I know what you mean.

    I watched SSN when they were showing clips of the Celtic Musical and I knew I wouldn't like it straight away:smiley-laughing002:

    Watched the trailer there and I think it looks too different. The sets look (and are) different and the lighting seems a bit dark. Plus the actors' ages do seem to show on screen, which does effect what Ford and Greg were going for to look as if they hadn't been away.

    Maybe I'm just being too pessimistic, but I just want this to be the success it was before.

    Managed to get tickets in section 011 for what is currently the final show (assuming they don't add more dates). Can't wait...hope they don't do the stupid "learn to speak Craiglang" again though, that was cringey.

    I was told that the wallpaper alone on these new sets cost over £2500. All the wallpaper on the original sets were bought from the Barras and cost £80 total.

    Got a bad feeling too, hope not though. The last live show i enjoyed at the time, then when i watched it back i didn't laugh once. Think their next live show they should keep it simple like the first one they did in 1999 (i think).

    We've being catching up with the old ones on Netflix over the last week or so......maybe it's because we've not seen them in years but they're still brilliant!!!! Left it last night with Winston and Tam up to their necks in a bunker!! Hope it's lasted the test of time.

    Don't think I updated this thread after I watched the new first episode last Tuesday.

    I thought it was amazing, and any doubts I had quickly vanished after the first laugh.

    If I was to put it against the old stuff, there is stuff that is like the paint scene from the Fresh Lick episode when Jack, Winston Victor are running about in a panic. It was really that type of hilarity.
