Young man: I watch 大象传媒3 for "Three pints of lager"
Young woman: I've got Sky so I only watch normal TV to watch Eastenders
Young clubber type: The interactive's quite cool... on Sky Digital
(Sound of traditional 大象传媒 types leaping from balconies into Wood Lane)

I hope this isn't taken as evidence to commission another six series of Two Pints of Lager...

According to the ratings in the Sunday Times TV bit, "Two Pints..." is one of the top ten rated non-terrestrial shows. Until I saw that, I didn't realise anybody actually /watched/ it and assumed it was the result of some kind of "who can commission and get to air the most rubbish programme..." competition among the channels. After all, how else can we explain "Davina"?

I once emailed the schedulers at 大象传媒 Three to ask why Two Pints is in purpetual repeat - apparently no matter how many times they show the audience figures hold up.

Having said that it is rather funny.

that's funny! two pints will go down in history as cultural genius of shakespearian proportions - not dissimilar in fact, the use of language, slapstick, improvisation, costume, social parody, situation, generation-, gender- and class- awareness, and of course raw sex, are all there and brilliantly crafted into a surreal super-reality of life just above the poverty line, the aspiring working classes as opposed to shameless in which aspiration is usurped by determination to survive. it may just be the difference between the cultures that evolve in areas of old terraced red brick housing compared with estate living.
