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'?

Yes I miss Sophie, did the actress want to leave ( loved her in my mad fat diary, )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.
They have just finished filming the new series I'm not sure when its going to be broadcast but it is complete.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 agoThey have just finished filming the new series I'm not sure when its going to be broadcast but it is complete.
Edited to add it says on the TDD fan page that the new series will air early next year but no date confirmed yet
Yes there is. Elaine C Smith has confirmed that .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
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 newsYes there is. Elaine C Smith has confirmed that .
Apparently Michelle and Allan aren't in it for some reason.
Some of the new series was filmed in Hamilton and West Calder. . Elaine posts videos on the TDD page fairly regular, that's where I get all my information . I tried to put a link from the page on here but it didn't workThat'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
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?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.
Agree. The episode where Christine's roof falls down is one of the funniest.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!"
"IT WAS LIKE bleeping POMPEII BETH"Agree. The episode where Christine's roof falls down is one of the funniest.
Christine is brilliant. So funny"IT WAS LIKE bleeping POMPEII BETH"
canβt waitIts been confirmed. Series 5 starts with the Christmas special and the new series starts in the new year.
