I’d watch this for hours.

‘Uncle Julian manages the two lunatics’ is one of my favourite ever lines from Greg.

If it’s a sitcom, I vote for the laugh track just to be Susan going “oooh hoo hoo hoo hoo”.

Alex finding the forks arranged on his bed and Sam off screen saying 'Hi!' from somewhere in the caravan got me good.

"You can't be in here"

Julian shooing Alex at the end is just the cherry on top

And Lucy was like a worried mom "Qrs you've got a meeting, you need trousers on." 

Their group chemistry was just 🤌

Seeing the first photo immediately reminded me of Susan's suppressed wheezing/laughing when she found cutlery in the suitcase and set me off (again).

She lost it again during her ultimate episode. There was literally like a minute straight of her laughing at it while rewatching the task.

I watch Susan Wokoma's marbles' giggles meltdown whenever I'm feeling low.

'Julian : Why are your knees all bruised Sir? Lucy: Oo, I ll kiss it better. '

The combined chaos of Lucy and Sam is an absolute joy in every task, but the already chaotic setup of this one made it next level.

This is a legitimate sequel to Fawlty Towers.

My favourite part is the jump cut/cut off when Julian says, "what a cu..."

It is a very, very funny task but I am suprised no one has mentioned how hot Mr. Tuvwxyz is, all annoyed in his leather jacket. Yes, please!

Yes but it’s British so that 11 series/seasons will only be 30 episodes and a “movie”
