I'm SO pleased BBC are repeating this wonderful half-hour comedy previously shown on BBC 75 or whatever.

Jo Brand, who co-writes is just superb in this hospital black comedy.

Last nights episode had Jan and me in stitches, and it's fantastic that Jo doesn't write the really funny lines for herself, though some are classic !

Is anyone else watching this brilliant show ?

(I've actually sat next too, and talked to Jo Brand in a dentists waiting-room - but that's another story) !

She used to be a psychiatric nurse. Are you SURE that's not when you met her JR?!!!! :wink:

We don't normally like Jo Brand, but enjoyed the series the first time round.

I can affirm that she dislikes dentists as much as most people.
