Friday Night Dinner - Season 5

image

From Wednesday 16 September at 8:30pm

Once again, brothers Adam and Jonny return to Mum and Dad’s house for a Friday night dinner of soup, chicken and crimble-crumble - plus massive side-orders of wind ups and bickering.

Shocked to find ABC Comedy re airing Frontline. The humour still holds up even if the broadcast quality doesn’t hold up to 2020 standards.

Ross Noble is back on our screens for this hilarious two part special, El Hablador, which roughly translates to the storyteller (appropriately enough).

His new show El Hablador, which roughly translates to the storyteller (appropriately enough), will take you on a wild ride through his imagination. A guaranteed night of nonsense from one of the world’s best comedians.Production credits: Written and Produced by Ross Noble, directed by Peter Callow, produced by Ross Noble and Peter Callow for Stunt Baby Productions.

All 6 episodes available on iview following the broadcast of episode 1

David Tennant and Michael Sheen star as two actors whose West End play has been put on hold due
to Covid-19, but whose director has persuaded them to carry on rehearsing online.

Peppa Pig…in pepper sauce. :yum: :laughing:

Yes I think Friday Night Dinner is pretty good as well. Not a bad watch. The mother is hilarious.

Finally some new episodes of Friday Night Dinner. ABC2 played the first season or two about 2012 then abandoned the show until this year. I ended up stumbling upon subsequent seasons on Stan last year, but they don’t have season 6 yet.
