Vandalism
editAs adding a list of episodes, a full cast and helpful information to the article which seems to be mostly opinion has been judged by the idiotbot to be vandalism, I have placed some information here. Someone might like to incorporate it into the article sometime:

Youtube
editAll the many fans and even some of the actors have complained and complained about the show not being released on DVD, despite endless empty promises. The trouble I think is that they may not consider the show suitable for TV. Bob Slay swears but that is not such a big deal on TV nowadays. But he also steals Vaughan's credit card to pay for a date, takes drugs and later drugs a whole room full of students, he is a sex maniac with a bad attitude to women and everybody else, etc. The Marketing Director is a pervert and sexual deviant. Maggie, wanting revenge on Bob gets him drunk, takes his clothes off and then takes a polaroid of "Bob's knob" which she shows all around the office. She also takes off her knickers and puts them in Bob's pocket, while he has passed out from booze. This may be why only 13 episodes were made and no more. I have put both series on youtube in case they do not see the light of day again. (178.236.117.122 (talk) 12:50, 30 November 2013 (UTC))
