The Larkins. New TV Remake

Watched this the other evening, it’s rubbish. Why oh why do they feel the need to make remakes of perfickly good originals. I agree with the reviewer. I’ll not bother with the other episodes, thanks.

Why try and improve perfick perfection.

Recorded but not watched it yet.

I’m glad now that I didn’t bother watching it after seeing the trailers, which were enough to put me off.

If the BBC & ITV really want to compete with streaming services rather than decline even further and become a minority “niche” option for peoples’ TV viewing they are going to have to try much harder than they are now.

We watched it last night. Over acting? yes. Strange casting? yes. Lightweight early Sunday evening drama that contained a few laughs but required no thinking about? Definitely. Will I watch the est of the series? Probably.

Did you see the original series?

Yes, like many millions of others at the time.
