    CGI fake backgrounds were weird.

    Really? The only bits that made me audibly laugh where when the bunnet caught on fire and victor fell over the rocks on the way out his flat.

    It was pretty decent, definitely not as good as some of the old ones but enjoyable.

    10x better than a lot of the * that passes for sitcoms atm.

    Thought it was a mixed bag. Some good bits but some bad.

    Seemed a tad forced in the beginning and a fw other bits. It never felt 'natural' as such they way it did last time.

    People would say it was rubbish if it was the best episode of SG ever. Same with any other show that's been away for a while, the nostalgia etc makes you think it can't be as good. Thought it was good, some proper laugh out loud moments.

    It's never going to get the same reaction from people as the older episodes, simply because the old ones are the originals.

    Folk just need to enjoy it for what it is, rather than going all TV critic.

    I lowered my expectations for it as when a programme comes back after years off the telly its usually *, only fools and horses is a perfect example.

    But i thought it was really good alot better than i was expecting. 7/10

    Was good. Started off slow but had its moments.
    Think with any series that starts again after a long time the new way that it's filmed takes a bit if getting used to.
    I thought it would've been, like many awaited renewed series, a bit of a parody of itself.
    Room for improvement but was enjoyable

    I'm just glad it's back, even if it dosen't quite reach the heights of earlier episodes, as someone already mentioned, it's still far better than most of the drivel currently on TV masquerading as comedy.

    I'm sure Winston's brother was a "super fan", some douchebag lawyer I think. * knows why, might have done a competition or something but it was a * storyline.

    Thought there was a couple of decent laugh out loud moments, quite a lot of * as well. But not bad.
