Birds of a Feather

Since this is in recent memory, Linda Robson is a guest on Richmond Osmond's House Of Games all this week. I don't wish to be cruel, but based on the first day, I don't think I've seen a contestant less suited to a TV quiz show ever before.

What does the title of this abortion even mean?  "Birds of a Feather"... like "peas in a pod"?  How does that work?

Awful awful awful.  I am starting to get furious.

Birds of a feather flock together, the two leads and their vile neighbour are sort of a type in a way, a flock if you will. And their husbands - not Dorians, don't remember her deal - are jail "birds" so it's got that extra meaning. Some birds (penguins) waddle, hence the title song. Very simple.

And they also waddle due to the fact they have about eight feet of floor space to constantly roam around in.

If I had a time machine I would prioritise destroying Birds of a Feather before it was ever fucking made.  Never mind would you eject Yeltsin from his mum's womb.  Would you boil the writers of this shite alive, yes.

Long time criminal Cockneys Ian Bird and Ian Feather are offered a strange sentence, go to jail or go free but spend the rest of their sentence with their cockney wives. They chose jail.

Birds of a feather like a bird's feather on a wing like the long arm of the (c)law, like a bird's claw.

Why does Sharon, the largest Bird of a Feather, not simply eat the other two?

There were originally four, chilling.

This, and then TOWIE. It's like they want us to hate them.

Ian Eyedo is a polygamist cyclops, Iain Waddle is the fattest man in the south of England. As cellmates in HM Far Away they can no longer indulge their favourite activities of getting married and walking short very distances. As a result, they form a suicide pact and asphyxiate each other with hilarious results.

Fixed it because the lyrics were slightly wrong.

Thank you, it's important that we have 100% accuracy when discussing these Birds of a Feather.

Was The Liver Birds basically the same show?  I never gave it a shot because it gave off such BOAF vibes.

Typically turgid stuff from Carla "Trunk" Lane, but automatically better than Waddle Eye Doo by dint of having Nerys Hughes in it.

[Replies From View]

Why do they all have such stupid names.


Carla:  stupid name
"Trunk":  Nelys the elephant more like
Nerys:  !!!
Lane:  there is a Carla in Pigeon Street which isn't a lane mate, it's a fuckin street.  nice try though
Hughes is a man's surname like John Hughes

Last of the Summer Wine had First of the Summer Wine; Only Fools and Horses had Rock and Chips; why was there never a Dads of a Feather?

[McDead]

By that paradigm, wouldn't it be Dinosaurs of a Feather?

Eggs of a Feather

impossible to discern whether it's a prequel or sequel
