Two Doors Down, comedy

Very cringeworthy!

I love it

I find it very easy to watch.

Love it. Well written and well acted. The writer of this series died recently so not sure if there will be any more series.

I used to enjoy it but recently it’s got a bit too far fetched.

Makes me ashamed to be Scottish .

I love it

Loved it.

It’s very tongue in cheek easy to watch I am Scottish and love it

Easy to watch better than most of the stuff on especially soaps.

I don’t think it’s meant to suggest that Scottish people are like the characters - it’s set in Scotland, rather than being about the Scots. It’s about people in general rather than Scottish people in particular, and it’s very funny, although I agree that the earlier series are better.

I agree Doodledog it just happens to be Scottish but equally could be set in Wales, NI or England.
It’s not meant to be taken seriously it’s a comedy.Having said that I’ve now and then come across people who say exactly what they think with no filters.😆

The characters are stereotypes..The language is modern urban west Scottish and is skillfully used to illustrate the stereotypes.
Situation comedies are funny because they are stereotypes of ourselves.

I had never heard of it but someone on GN recommended watching several old episodes before making a judgment which I did. I absolutely loved it and so did DH. We took to watching one episode wrapped in our throws before our evening meal in the depths of last winter. I see myself in Beth and one of my sisters in law in Christine. I am so sorry there will be no more episodes.

I love Two Doors Down. Christine is wonderful. I didn’t enjoy the final series where Cathy returned. The previous series where Colin and Anne Marie came together as a couple was brilliant.

For those who enjoyed Two Doors Down, do try Scots Squad on BBC Scotland, available on iplayer. I think you will find yourself laughing out loud at the humour.

Thanks for the recommendation. I will try that.

My favourite 2DD episode is the one where Christine goes to hospital. She is so awful it's hilarious.

Doodle dog, one of my favourite episodes too! Everyone in Scotland knows a Christine!
Do stay with Scots Squad, give it a few episodes. 👍

Not only in Scotland!

😆😆😆

I was catching up with some episodes that I had missed recently. Episode 4 of series 7, the one about Father's Day, is brilliant. I love the comedy, as do our Scottish friends. I remember Elaine C Smith as Rab Nesbit's wife and she was great in that too.

Im Scottish and love this. Normally I dont like comedies. I agree I found the early ones better than the layer ones. I also love/loved Still Game which iss another Scottish series.

I like it too/ I know it is based on stereotypes but that's partly why it's funny. I'm not Scottish but we all know people like this in our families, mine happens to be English. 'This Country' is based on stereotypes too but is bloody funny

This Country is hilarious! So subtle.
Who could forget Still Game? The last episode was very emotional.
