New Tricks

Post by Ace »

Last years pilot show was excellent, but after 4 episodes, I admit its shite. A waste of talent from Waterman, Bolan and Armstrong, TOTALLY let down by shite scripts.
.......................and Waterman certainly looks his age now. He was hard as nails as Terry in Minder, but now looks as though Arfur could give him a slap!!

I've met the man on the street............and he's a cunt

I agree... after the pilot I was licking my lips at the thought of those 4 excellent character actors, but the scripts have been dire! There were times I was sure the James Bolam character was going to call Amanda Redman "Thelma"

I still ended up watching all the episodes though!
