No, not in the slightest. Saying that, I only ever watched about 30 seconds of an episode plus the 'highlights' when it's advertised.

The office caught me off guard! I first watched it accidentally by flicking through the channels and it must have been 10 minutes through the program which I thought was a genuine documentary. I was thinking "WTF?".

It wasn't until the next day listening to Radio 5, that I learned what it was about.

I think the way it's filmed is genius and original.

The same with the Royle Family. To have a show focussed in one room with a family watching TV is the same.

I also love how peep show is filmed in first person. Very clever!

Now I like Miranda. Largely because I have an over-bearing mother who comes entirely without social filters and I'm a single lady of a certain age and I like to laugh at myself. I respond well to Bridget Jones for similar reasons.

When I was at school my best friends mum was housekeeper for the local Father and believe me mrs Brown has nothing on her, typical Irish mother, always cooking something you weren't allowed to eat because it was for "himself" but she made the best soda bread in the world and I loved her to bits as she treated me like another one of the brood, so yes I have always enjoyed watching mrs Browns boys
