I know some people on here are fans so in case you'd forgotten:

I couldn't access it either.

I think they're introducing Jamie later on.

It would've been a bit much for Rebecca Front's character having both him and Tucker swearing in unison at her!

I could! :p

It was only about 5 or 10 minutes of unused snippets...

what did you make of the new minister? is it too early to say? nice to have a woman in the role, but i wasn't bowled over. chris langham and tom hollander are hard acts to follow...

She held her own I think. I didn't think much of Tom Hollander's minister in the film (can't even remember the character's name) as I thought he'd been painted a bit too deliberately dim and bar the odd snippet of wit he was mostly just a mouse to be torn apart by Malcolm and the Yanks. Abbot was much better.

Front did a good job :nod: looking very promising.

They were always going to be able to get away with more on television than in a film... the film while very good is totally trounced by the Xmas specials from a few years ago in my opinion.
