See the actor that plays Ian. Was he the wee boy that was in the S1 jobs ad years ago? The one where they were at the ice cream van and asked how much things were then settled for 'a penny chew then mister'? πŸ˜…

Michelle and Alan are alright but I must admit I do prefer the earlier episodes with Jaz and Sophie. I love the one where the car alarm is going off in the middle of the night and the one where Christine's ceiling collapses.
Yes I miss Sophie, did the actress want to leave ( loved her in my mad fat diary, )
Do like the dynamics between Michelle and Kathy, that slap in the face from Michelle's friend was a long time coming!!!
Does anyone know if there will be a new series?

Any news if there is a Christmas special this year? I hadn't realised they had done one last year and only found it a few months ago

Yes there is. Elaine C Smith has confirmed that πŸ˜ƒ.
Apparently Michelle and Allan aren't in it for some reason.

That's good to hear about the Christmas special, not a huge fan of Michelle and Allan so not too bothered by that bit of news πŸ˜„

Some of the new series was filmed in Hamilton and West Calder. πŸ™‚. Elaine posts videos on the TDD page fairly regular, that's where I get all my information πŸ˜…. I tried to put a link from the page on here but it didn't work πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

In the pilot Ian was played by Kevin Guthrie who is now in jail. He was in Sunshine on Leith as well.

They also mentioned another son that was in the army. He wasn't mentioned again after the pilot episode.
Oh gosh I didnt know this. I was rewatching on bbc iplayer the weekend and noticed the pilot episode had disappeared, guessing this is why?

Yeah I wonder why they didnt keep a second son in the series. Beth's sister was hilarious in that episode!

I can't wait for the new series! I was late to watching this as I watched the pilot episode and I wasn't impressed - I worked with Elaine C Smith a few times even after she was playing Christine and I'm ashmed to say I hadn't watched any of it until I caught the end of an episode from Series 3 one night and I was hooked. I'm watching the one at the moment when Chrstine's roof collapses.

"It isn't potpourri we need on the half landing, it's a bowl of pepermints and a selection of johnny bags! And yes I would like a fresh orange juice!"

"What insurance company are you with, Chrstine?"
"The one with the wee dog.... aye it better start nodding when it sees my claim!"

"So, here we are. Grotbag's layer!"

Agree. The episode where Christine's roof falls down is one of the funniest. 🀣🀣

A little bit of trivia i heard recently. Beth wore the same pair of black trousers in every episode. She didn't mind though as she liked them because they were comfortable πŸ˜ƒ

He has also appeared in Coronation Street and Our Girl.

It seems that Elaine C. Smith confirmed a Christmas special, so we can hope! I will certainly be watching.

I saw Harki Bhambra when he was on Coronation Street and my wife and I both said at the same time "Oh it's my wee pal Jaz" I'm glad he is making his name in other programmes though, despite his absence on Two Doors Down!
