Yeah mine did this!Just watched Episode 1 of Series 2, the one with the flamboyant new school mum. Every time she instructed her Alexa to do something, ours would also go offDid this happen with anyone else?!
So would I (then and now )just rewatching the bday episode from season 1, the "entertainer" with all of the cats"it's not even siamese" tbh I would have loved a "very cat heavy" entertainer as a child (or now tbh..)
The one and only time my dad helped out on a school trip was when we went to the Jorvik Viking Centre in York, he only came because he'd wanted to go for ages and it was freeI had a reminder today of the one and only time I helped out on a school trip. I got ropped into it when someone dropped out and my friend said 'it will be fun'
Anyway, my friend and I are sat at the back of the bus with the kids and we got them to all start singing away at the top of their voices at which point the teacher marches to the back of the bus and yells at all the kids and tells them to stop immediately ... obviously we let them take the blame
I saw him in that before I saw Motherland. i remember thinking 'it's Goodsir' . He's a great actor. I love Kevin.Any Kevin fans - he's in The Terror on BBC iplayer currently, we're on episode 3 and it's v good so far. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/p0954ks6/the-terror
I'd love to watch the Xmas special too,but if I remember, it was mentioned earlier in thread, it's not available anywhereI've just finished this and loved it. Amanda and Meg were my favorites, I actually found Julia really unlikeable lol was that just me? Also does anyone know where I can watch the Xmas special? Its not on iplayer
I think Julia is supposed to be unlikable isnt she? she is just really self absorbedI've just finished this and loved it. Amanda and Meg were my favorites, I actually found Julia really unlikeable lol was that just me? Also does anyone know where I can watch the Xmas special? Its not on iplayer

I think she’s supposed be relatable. All of the characters are over exaggerated caricatures of school-gate cliches, none are particularly loveable but they all have aspects, moments and behaviours we can see in ourselves (or people we know),That's what confused me. Was she meant to be likeable or not as she was the protagonist. I didn't know whether the writers intent was too make her self absorbed in an endearing and funny way but I found her to be neither.
I definitely don't think she was supposed to be likeable, I am just rewatching now and have just seen that episode where the irish mum gets the new car, and liz is having loads of problems with her ex and Julia is just totally wrapped up in herself, telling liz she is not really a friend etc...That's what confused me. Was she meant to be likeable or not as she was the protagonist. I didn't know whether the writers intent was too make her self absorbed in an endearing and funny way but I found her to be neither.
Yeah, I don't think she's supposed to be likeable but I think in a subtle way she's supposed to be relatable, like the parts of being a parent we probably all do but don't really like about ourselves. (Yeah I've stuck my fingers up at the phone when a grandparent has said they can't look after the kids when I need them to for work, despite how truly, truly grateful I am for all the help they do give me!)I think she’s supposed be relatable.

yeah, and her husband seems awful and so unsupportive!Yeah, I don't think she's supposed to be likeable but I think in a subtle way she's supposed to be relatable, like the parts of being a parent we probably all do but don't really like about ourselves.

He was fit! I loved that he was there at the end and showed that he loved her.Her husband is never there, always off with his mates, I feel for her in that respect - not sure I'd be that patient or nice! The last episode was interesting - when the husband actually turned up to something, I wonder if he'll be more of a character in the next series if there is one.
I think regarding her husband, the situations again highlight gender stereotypes. Of course there will be plenty of husbands out there that are awful and unsupportive, but even those who are not like that, the main share of childcare will still fall to the mother. My own husband is a great dad and partner but if there are kids needing an unscheduled collection from school/nursery, who gets the call first and expected to leave work? Me, not him. Who runs around ragged organising all the crap for birthday parties, getting the presents picked, wrapped, clothes sorted, dropped off, picked up... then all the organising of our own kids birthday parties... Me!yeah, and her husband seems awful and so unsupportive!
I am currently watching Superstore and in a way Julie reminds me of Amy, both main characters but both seem quite unlikeable for the most part imo
