    I've taped it and I will definitely give it one or two more tries but I didn't enjoy it whole lot at all.

    There was some genuine laughs that give hope to future episodes but there was a lot of bad in there too.

    What actually was the point of Winston's Brother? The way the show ended leads me to believe we wont see him again, unless he brings the money back...

    Man I hope he doesn't bring the money back.

    My mate said he read it in an article.

    Just watched it. Some right funny bits, but some * too. Mixed bag for me.

    Surprised at the reaction in here. Thought it was good. Winston's brother was pish but other than that there was nothing "bad".

    Considering it's been away for so long, I expected worse.

    I think peoples expectations have been dumbed down with * like Gary Tank Commander.

    I expect better from Effingee.

    First episode though, plenty of time for it to pick up.

    It was meh, some funny bits but just seemed a bit medicore. The whole carry on with the bath and the tap coming off just reminded me of when they tried to do up isa's flat and wrecked the place, the bit with Stevie dancing was cringe worthy aswell.

    Gary Tank Commander was utter gash, aye. Could never get into that.

    As far as Still Game goes, tonights episode was certainly weak...but it could have been a total disaster, given it's been gone for years.

    The odd fairly funny bit but, on the whole, pretty *. What the * was causing Jack to be stuck in the bath? Poor stuff.

    Exactly. It was like they tried to cram as many old jokes into the half hour as possible. Not even just the old recurring jokes but actual storylines from old episodes.

    I hate * on it but I love it so much that I'm probably it's biggest critic.

    There was enough laughs to think it could pick up though. Here's hoping.

    The only bit that even raised a smile in Gary Tank Commander was the 'Cheese Sauce'

    Thought it was ok but i didnt have really high expectations since it has been away for so long. Defo think the series will pick up though. Next weeks with the dodgy booze looks a good laugh

    I've taped it and will watch it later.

    Gary Tank Commander is absolutely awful.

    It wasn't a classic episode, but still enjoyed it.

    Just watched it again with my bhoy. He just came in from work and hadn't seen it yet.

    I was being far too critical, it wasn't that bad at all.

    Thought it was hilarious, could have been an episode from any previous series.

    Said to the missus it would be slated regardless tonight and that's came to fruition :56:

    The entire country is talking about it, was only ever going to be an anti climax for some.
