Giles and Sue Live The Good Life - episode 2 - Is It a Good Life?

Hello again, fans of Giles and Sue, and welcome back to my blog dedicated to them, and their work.

This time I'll be reviewing the second episode of their new show on BBC 2 called 'Giles and Sue Live The Good Life'. And if you didn't watch it yet, you may not want to read this, as I will be describing a few things that happened in the show. So, here goes...

First of all, I'd like to say that I think Giles and Sue make me laugh roughly at least every minute in this show, because just like in 'Supersizers' they come out with funny things, and they get on really well, infact, I'd go as far to say that they get on better now, in this series, than they did in 'Supersizers'. Although they still have the occational dig at each other - which helps add to the humour of the show.

Secondly, there are always bits that stand out to me, as My Funniest Moments of the show. And these are: when Giles and Sue take the two goats out for a walk, and they keep pooing in the road, and Sue has to get down to pick the little droplets up; also when Giles and Sue made a scarecrow in their allotment, and they dressed it up to look like Margo, from the original series of 'The Good Life', and Sue said to Giles that it's his ideal woman - before we knew it was supposed to be Margo; and also when Giles cut out fabric for a dress Sue would then wear to the 'Summer Party', and once it was on Sue she started to strut about in it, in their living room.

And I'd also like to say that Sue really does make a great Margo, and can really pull off the posh, North London accent. And in this episode, she again got dressed up as Margo, but we only saw her briefly, once in their living room, on the phone, and once with Giles - as Jerry, at a tennis court. And again, I'd like to add that the outfit she wore was very good, and really suited her.

Finally, I'd say that this series, so far, has been very informative, as well as fun. We also get to see Giles and Sue talk to people who lived in the seventies, to give us a better idea, of what it was like to live a self-sufficient lifestyle.

Thanks for reading, and it would be much apprieciated if you could leave a comment about what you thought of the show.

Bye for now, Ss1!
