I bloody love it, so glad it's back for a 2nd series, which - though I was worried that the participants would become too self-conscious or showy (it's only the posh couple that seem to be doing so, hamming up their drinking) - is as good as the first.
The premise isn't great - we watch people watching telly - but I don't watch telly with friends/family much, so I'm enjoying seeing how these people react to what's on. And some of their reactions are very funny - last week, before the intro theme tune, it flashed up 'And now, a Party Political Broadcast by the Leader of the Lib Dems', and cut straight to some guy moaning 'OK, let's see what this dick's got to say' - and very moving.
(Though I saw one of the lads in it on Brighton Beach a few weeks back, and got into a whole 'I'm watching you who I watch on telly while you watch telly' thing, most disturbing...)
