Great comedy

In it's second season Still Game still produces many laughs per episode. At a time where the British sitcom world is at an all-time low, it's good to see at least one consistently funny show.

The comedy writing is spot-on, and the portrayal of OAP's Jack and Victor by Hemphill and Kiernan is quality. Chewin the Fat ran out of steam, but Still Game goes on producing the laughs...
