Your comments on the Amazing Mrs Pritchard
Ally: I'm only 14 but I can see if nothing is done about
global warming, something drastic and something fast then my future and my
childrens future will be awful. It's called sustainable development, and so
far we're not very doing very well at it! I wouldn't mind missing neighbours
once a week and not going on my computer and not having a cup of tea once
a week, just having the very necessitys of electricity...even twice or more
a week, if I knew the world was doing it with me and that we were making a
better future for us all. I feel as I'm young my points would not be listenend
to...but SOMETHING must be done! I want a better world...I want to get people
to open there eyes and help save it! Would you prefer a destroyed world in
10 years, or missing a couple of episodes of neighbours a week and your usual
drive to work. I loved The Amazing Mrs Pritchard, best show on for ages, i
really hope it's opened peoples eyes...I really hope our government will do
something FAST about global warming, and my future.
Thank you! Please make more Amazing Mrs Pritchards, and please don't stop
opening peoples eyes.
Lisa Holdsworth: What a fabulous series. Entertaining and
thought-provoking with fabulous performances from all involved. More please!
Roger Pearcey: I think this drama shows just how unlikely
it is for the ideals featured to become a reality. The awful 'cop-out' at
the end of the final episode shows that in the world of politics there can
be no squeaky clean government. Otherwise we would have enjoyed a satisfactory
end to the series. Instead, we were left feeling cheated.
Laurie: What a thought-provoking, well-written and brilliantly
acted series. There was not a weakness in the cast, and the writing was insightful
and sensitive.
Special mention for the excellent music - not intrusive and always sympathetic
to the action.
Just one gripe - what a dreadful cliffhanger to leave us on!
Declan: While I disagree with Gareth Butler's comment on
the Scottish and Welsh Parliament and Assembly (Scottish Parliament, Welsh
assembly), I think (really) that a party like the one portrayed in Mrs Pritchard
would do the country a hell of a lot of good, and I agreed with (almost) everything
said/done in the programme (however frustrating the ending).
Gareth: What a cop-out!
Chantal: i can't believe the series is over! i hope they
do another one, it was left on a real cliff hanger! Ros' inner struggle was
really played out well, she didn't want to break up her family but neither
did she want to lie to the British nation which was the one thing she had
promised never to do.
neil mcpake: thought the program was excellent and what
really surprised me was Linda, my amasing Mrs was able to understand Pritchards
politics.
Debbie Lockyer: Well done BBC for recognising how the majority
of us feel in the UK. It goes without saying that we are all fully aware that
politics like any other walk of life is open to abuse,corruption compromise.
What a compromising situation perhaps you should take a poll on what Mrs Pritchard
should do next. Any way how long do we have to wait for the next series this
is the best thing on the tele at the moment and a really good way of getting
us all to think into politics a bit more.
Rick Gurr: I think politics should be this way good on the
writers and the cast to potray this message to the dusty old system!
C Allsopp: This show has been thoughtfully made and put
together creating an interesting and amusing peace of drama. I personally
cannot wait to discover what will happen in the final episode. It has a great
cast without a single weakness and has been thoughtfully written and well
directed and cut. If only more dramas could be as thought provoking and as
much fun to watch.
carolin: i think that this is a really amazing show.. the
bbc have done a good job for once!! at alst we have some programmes on tele
for both teenagers and adults. not only is it fun to watch but i think it
is also very educationa dn i think that jane horrock , Janet mcterr and the
gang have done a gr8 job!!! well done
H Robinson: Not sure that my hometown is the ideal place
for a new parliament...What a weird thought! I think the BBC have a winner
with this show though. Fantastic! It's really got me much more interested
in politics and how the government works, which frankly, before watching the
Amazing Mrs Pritchard I wasn't. Obviously I realise it's not quite like that
in real life, but I think it's a brilliant way to show the kinds of things
that go on behind the front door of Number 10. Love it!
Casper: when are we going to see a real life Mrs Pritchard
in this country? I think if someone like her was runnin the country then things
would be a lot better.
kirsty gardner: what a faboulous programme I am compleatly
hooked
CM Christou: I would like to see European laws being put
through parliament and the house of Lords before being make law in the UK
becoming a reality. This TV programme is an inspiration to us all.
jane summers: I agree with all her policies! We need a Ros
Pritchard, we need fair, accountable and open government. Now, more than ever.
Isobel: i think that although the program is mainly about
politics you should develope more of the stories that are not about politics.
for example the storyline where catherine is pregnent could have been an amazing
story but it will probably only last a couple of weeks which i think is a
real disappointment. if you had played it out longer would have been a very,
very good storyline.
Brendan: Fab series, great to watch, Jane Horrocks and the
cast are brilliant. Thank you
Christopher Lindsay: Your programme went all the ways and
reached high places, well done!!!
Malcolm Johnston: Although the politics of the programme
is a little 'OTT' by any standard, the acting, casting, pace and delivery
is outstanding and makes for a really enjoyable evenings entertainment. The
only thing missing within the family scenario is the element of love - something
which may be conspicuous by its absence. I hope not, we'll have to wait and
see the last episode for that one. As for Jane Horrocks, not only a brilliant
comedienne, but also a consumate actress. Well done BBC.
C Wilshaw: I look forward all through the week towards this
programme! Me and my classmates watch every week - if only there could be
more episodes! It's great! If only she really was the prime minister! I really
got to the heart of the programme and I think Catherine's great !
helen frances: Astounded that the BBC could put on such
a terrible tv programme, I came across this by accident, watched 5 minutes
and switched over to something less ludicrous!
Tess: It’s a pity that with an important debate like
the EU you deliberately played to the sceptics’ gallery churning out
popular yet false information. The Commission doesn’t make the law,
it proposes it: law is made by the Council of Ministers (i.e. the national
governments, including the UK Government) and the European Parliament –
who are directly elected by you. A law on safety standards would never bring
them down to the lowest common denominator – it would impose a legal
minimum and leave stricter national tests alone. A Directive doesn’t
automatically impose law – the end has to be achieved but it is up to
the Member States to get there however they like, usually by amending their
national laws or implementing new ones. Either of these are the responsibility
of Parliament – so the usual scrutiny would apply. Even the number you
used for the Directive was wrong; they always include the year…It’s
been a great show until that – it really is a shame that you perpetuated
the fears and falsehoods rather than explaining the truth.
Tom Trust: Amazing that the pro-EU BBC should have sanctioned
the broadcasting of this drama. The very relevant criticisms of the EU and
the way it governs us, highlighted in the "aircrash" episode, ought
to make a few viewers sit up and take notice of the way that the three main
parties have consistently blindfolded the electorate to the aims of the EU.
Odd that Mrs Pritchard's party should have adopted one of the United Kingdom
Independence Party's colours for its campaign. I can only assume that the
drama will end in utter failure by the Purple Alliance in an attempt to show
the viewer that a properly democratic government, such as UKIP demands, isn't
actually such a good idea, in an attempt to head off UKIP's aim to get the
UK out of the EU.
J. Kirchner: What a wonderfully fresh idea! A Drama series
that not only makes one laugh but also think! I enjoy every bit of this series
and can only wish politics could take this fresh new twist so voting could
finally make some sense! Not just in Britain, but also in my home country
Holland!
Austin Lane: I do wish you had bothered to actually look
at the work of the European Scrutiny Committee before trying to lampoon it
this week - perhaps even reading a Committee report rather than Open Europe's
take on the system.
The idea that the present ESC would have let an air security measure through
without demanding answers from Ministers and a debate is ever so slightly
incredible.
Still, everyone realises the whole thing's fictional and ironic and a bit
of fun - don't they?
Lee: This programme has clearly shown that party politics
does not represent the majority view of voters! All major parties hope the
apathy of the majority will continue as it allows core voters the discretion
to form government. Can we really say 30-40% turnouts represent truelly elected
reps....I don,t beleive so. Let this programme be a catalyst for hope that
more independant peoples, people will stand and make decisions, not based
on party grounds but, what is best for the communities they serve. Would the
BBC allow the independants use of the name purple alliance? Keep up the good
work BBC, the issues bought to light in this programme are real and effect
us all........
hilary Ralston: I'm really enjoying the great piece of drama
from the BBC - of course it is - who else could do it better!
Elliot Cukier: this hould be really happening. But without
all the deaths, trciks and lies.
anthnoy: this is what we need to do l hop that all of the
uk are whach this and what to chage the we are living in the age .l have to
say thack you to the person how com up with this progame.it is show that we
can chage and move on to a age of god life in the uk
Gus: Just a shining example of how good TV can be. Such
a shame the BBC seems stuck on this whole "6 episode" thing, its
not like you are not getting enough money from what we are charged to make
more. Wake up BBC.
poppy morris: Absolutely fab! Please more drama like this
from the BBc! great script and cast... thought he series could be longer.
June Warnock: Fantastic series, great writing. If only the
idea of this party would work, they'd get my vote. Jane Horrocks is fantastic,
versatile, attractive and very talented.
