Individual character articles
The articles for the individual characters are all restricted to a single paragraph. It would not lengthen this article appreciably to simply copy all the character articles into their own sections in this article. In addition to making the character information easier to find (a reader would no longer have to click through to ten individual articles), at least some of the character articles show up as unwatched pages, meaning they are at increased vulnerability to vandalism.

I've gone ahead and merged them - hopefully this will work out until the character descriptions are expanded enough to need their own article.
LyrlTalkC02:14, 22 August 2007 (UTC)reply
The article needs some expanding... I think
I think the article lacks a section about the plot of the series, some kind of summary for each one of the 6 series, and maybe a separate article for the characters (both main and secondary ones, only in one article), with pictures on it. Also a section about the DVDs releases don't hurt I think. By the way, isn't the title of the show Two Pints of Lager (and a Packet of Crisps) instead of Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps (the brackets are missing).
In summary:
A synopses for each one of the 6 series;
A separate article for the characters;
An expanded DVDs releases section;
A change in the shows name to include the brackets.
Is that really right with the brackets? The main logo has no brackets and I cannot find any brackets on the BBC website. I guess if you want to be really pernickety, you could replace the "and" with "&", but even then I've seen it written both ways. CC 26 Aug2007 9:08amGMT
In the IMDb it takes the brackets
Two Pints of Lager (And a Packet of Crisps), but after all, I think you're right, and as you said the "and" instead of the "&" is used more often, so it maybe be better to leave it like it is at the moment. Oh... and I'm working on the article/articles at the moment, so maybe the changes I've suggested may be done by myself.

Series 7
Ok, Jonny has gone. That is no reason to move him out of the cast list, because as a fictional character, he still exists in series 1 to 6. It's just that they're not being broadcast at present. An encyclopedia article shouldn't be confused with a blog, or real life. Unless anyone can make a case, based on Wikipedia policy or precedent for doing this, he has to stay.

I'd like to resolve the problems categorising episodes in a formal way. Reverting edits repeatedly doesn't help matters and the hidden messages aren't a good way of gaining a concensus. If we gain a concensus here, referring to it in the hidden message should be sufficient.
This is my two penny worth, feel free to agree or disagree;
To begin with, the word 'episode' can be accurately used to describe every production made in the whole series. There is no ambiguity with this word and because a production is different in some way to the average one does not make it any less an episode. There are currently 63 episodes of Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps. A special is, amongst other things, an episode which either appears outside of a normal series run, is either shorter or longer than the average episode, or does something 'special' that makes it stand out from the rest such as lampooning horror movies. There are 3 episodes that fall into this category.
When Janet Met Jonny - A Christmas special which was broadcast seperately from the rest of the series which lampooned music videos.
When Janet Killed Jonny - Homage to horror movies and didn't advance the normal plotline.
When Jonny Met Sharky - Live episode (actually referenced by Susan Nickson in the Outtakes show as a special).
You could also throw the outtakes shows (which I believe there are more than one) into the category of specials, however this is a whole different discussion.
In my humble opinion, the field in the infobox should actually say:
No. of episodes 63 including 3 specials.
On the other hand however, most other articles about sitcoms do not make reference to specials in the infobox, simply giving an episode count which includes them. For uniformity should we not do the same here?
Since
Wikipedia:Television episodes doesn't actually define an episode (probably because it's felt unnecessary to do so), we have to look elsewhere. My Concise Oxford has it as
incidental narrative or series of events forming digresssion in poem etc; incident in narrative, part of serial story; incident, event viewed as part of sequence; (Mus)... (irrelevant)
The bolded words are problematical for our purpose and therefore make use of those sub-definitions unhelpful. So we are left with "incident in narrative; part of serial story". The former case, in our context, would apply, for example, to the scene of Jonny's shooting; the latter applies more generally and I submit it as the only plausible interpretation usable within the context of a television programme. The test, therefore is whether it forms part of the narrative.
"When Janet Met Jonny" is therefore excluded as an episode as it is an interpolated "prequel" and has never been listed by the BBC within the episode list of any series; if it had its proper place in the overall narrative structure, it would have been Episode 1 of Series 1. This extraneity is highlighted by its presentation as a sequence of, essentially, music videos.
"When Jonny Met Sharky" is therefore included as it is not only part of the narrative sequence, but a vital part without which most of the events in series 7 would be inexplicable, and the only thing that takes it out of the ordinary towards being "special" (but not "a special") is its recording live, which given the history of television is not that unusual.
"When Janet Killed Jonny" is slightly more problematical, because we come up against that old bane of writing about fiction, canonicity. On the purely functional side, we have it as episode 10 of series 6, according to the BBC; we also having its narrative (at least initially) following on from the closure of the Archer in "Closing Time". Against, we have its wildly unreal nature and its ambiguous ending. Dream or not? Well, we just don't know. Given the lack of a
reliable source for this, we must fall back on something, and my preference is to regard it as a bit like the "Last Night of the Proms"- part of the series, but different as it slightly blurs the usual format.
That's my take on it, anyway. Oh, and "something 'special' that makes it stand out from the rest such as lampooning horror movies" seems to be begging the question. --Rodhullandemu (

I've noticed the BBC aren't particularly good at documenting episodes on their various websites, I think their exclusion of 'When Janet Met Jonny' is simply because it doesn't belong to a series, so doesn't fit within the series lists they've set up. Actually the episode does in fact follow on from the end of Schluballybub After walking out the door, Janet stops for a cigarette and then pulls out a photograph of herself and Jonny. That's where the flashback begins. The flashback ends at the point the same photograph was taken by Louise. Still staring at the photograph, Janet reflects on what she's remembered and (in voice over) sings the question "should I stay or should I go". So this episode cannot be a prequal as it's topped and tailed with the storyline as it was at the end of series 3. ~~

It's just that there is an implicit assumption in the proposition that "lampooning horror movies" makes it "a special". Not that important, but I feel we need diverse input from other editors here. I suggest leaving it for a day or so, then perhaps seeking a
third opinion, possibly from a TV project member. --Rodhullandemu (

I apologise for the misunderstanding but I wasn't trying to imply that it was a special just because it lampooned horror movies. More the fact that it became a horror story (as a nod/send up of the genre) rather than following the usual narrative or format of the show. I agree it wasn't made that clear above. I agree a third opinion would be helpful. ~~

It's worth noting that When Janet Met Jonny was transmitted outside of the runs of the series either side of it, so coupled with its contents is indisputably a "special". The other two putative specials were shown within their series runs, but while one is clearly a separate and fantastical branching off from the whole series' narrative, the other is an integral part of that narrative. To be honest, despite the direct references by Nickson et al to it as a "special," it's hard to justify categorising as such in the same way as the other two episodes. We should also note that ER treats that series' live episode as notable, but it is not singled out as a "special".

I think really we should just list "X episodes" in the infobox and not refer to "specials" there. For comparison consider A Very Peculiar Practice; two series of 7 episodes each, plus a later one-off "special" - the infobox lists just "15 episodes". I know some other pages for comedies (e.g. The New Statesman, Blackadder, etc.) do list "specials", but in those instances the demarcation is far more clear.

I see this issue has come up again. The first observation I would make is that it is most certainly relevent to note in the infobox that Ralf Little was in Series 1-6, i.e. not in Series 7. Secondly, Gell received fifth place billing - i.e. immediately after Casey, Drysdale, Mellor, and Smith - in episodes 1-4 of that Season, and sixth place billing in episodes 5-8. Oakes received sixth place billing in episodes 3 & 4, and fifth place billing in episodes 5-8. Furthermore, Oakes features in the title sequence of episodes 5-8, replacing part of the previous longer shot of Drysdale. It seems that circumstantially Oakes at leascontrast was regarded as being on a part with the previous leads.
Nick Cooper (

21:56, 22 September 2008 (UTC)reply
Indeed. "Come up", much like a wart or verucca that you'd think would have been long gone. Our starting point here is
WP:MOS#FICT - writing about fiction. Paradoxically, when writing about characters in fiction (in the real world), they don't die, because they didn't exist to begin with. You try telling that to some of the unwitting editors of
Torchwood. We have the same issue here. Points one by one:
Infobox: {{Infobox Television}} is silent on the "starring" field; nevertheless,
Ralf Little starred in Series 1 - 6, and the infobox for any article is intended to set forth broad information rather than detail; if an enquiring reader really wants to know when Little was starring, er, that's why we have the article. Having it in the infobox is contrary to
WP:MOS#FICTION
"Starring": This would require a
reliable source such as the
BBC; relative billing constitutes
original research. You have to realise that billing in programme credits is not only predicated by the importance of the role portrayed, but is also influenced by the agents of the actors involved (or, at least used to be), so to reading anything much into that is an act of purist optimism.
Characters generally: Almost any mainstream analysis of this series would concede that it revolves around five main characters, who all appear in every episode. It follows that the actors portraying the principal characters are "stars" (whatever that means). There are less substantial supporting characters (Flo Henshaw, Munch Wilkinson) whose dramatic purpose is to provide reaction, support, and foil, to the five main characters, but that does not make their actors into stars with respect to this programme.
Seems to me that your observations constuitute "original research" far than a commonsense observation about Oakes's placing in the credits and title sequence of Series 7. Not to mention a commonsense observation that programmes can evolve and are not stuck in the static mold of how they began. We'll see if/when we get a Series 7....
Nick Cooper (

07:15, 23 September 2008 (UTC)reply
Sadly, "commonsense" is also
original research, whereas I'm going by the BBC "Two Pints" homepage which some might think is a
reliable source. As for appearing in the title credits, a tortoise appears in the title credits for "
One Foot in the Grave", but I don't see a credit for it, least of all as a star of the show. If you're going to argue that
Lee Oakes is "starring", it make no sense not to argue that
Hayley Bishop is also "starring", because she appeared in two more episodes than Oakes. However, the BBC have never given either as much prominence as the five main characters, and I've never seen them listed as "starring". Therefore, they ain't. --
Rodhullandemu11:16, 24 September 2008 (UTC)reply
No, commonsense is not original research, if it is making an observation about something that is self-evident. Your comparison between Oakes and Bishop is flawed, as we're not talking about appearances, but rather the role Oakes and - to a lesser extent - Gells played in Series 7. One would note, for example, that on the same BBC website there is a picture of both of them plus the four original leads tagged as "Two Pints cast". This same picture appears on the cover of the Series 7 DVD. Furthermore, the back cover of the Series 7 DVD include Gells and Oakes under the "starring" billing. This is in contrast to all previous single series and box-set releases, which only featured the main five on the front cover.
Nick Cooper (

13:31, 24 September 2008 (UTC)reply
What is claimed to pass for "commonsense" varies so much between individuals that I don't think it's of much value to rely on it as a source. Some might say it's commonsense that Margaret Thatcher was a great Prime Minister; others would beg to differ. I disagree that it's self-evident, because even by your account the BBC is inconsistent and for us to resolve that ourselves constitutes
original research, pure and simple. But this is a problem with long-running series anyway; "starring" changes over time. In "
Coronation Street", for example, forty years ago you could have put
Violet Carson in the "starring" section, but not now. This is highlighting a weakness of the infobox anyway, in that it's geared towards the programme (which never listed Oakes or Gell as starring), as against a commercial packaging of it (which I accept does, within limits). I suggest that it's against the spirit of the infobox to list such as "Series 7, DVD only", that's just clutter, and I remain unconvinced that Oakes and Gell should be listed as "starring", because the infobox should refers to the programme as a whole and not just one series of it. --
Rodhullandemu13:50, 24 September 2008 (UTC)reply
No, it would be an opinion to say that to say that Thatcher was a "great Prime Minister"; it would be commonsense to observe that she has a tendency to wear blue. As for your latest comments, I would observe that of course the programme "never listed Oakes or Gell as starring" but then the same applies to the main five/four leads, as well, since there is no "starring" billing or separation in the title sequence, or in the credits, only that they appear in the former and are listed first in the latter.
Nick Cooper (

16:10, 24 September 2008 (UTC)reply
outdent. So as I see it, the situation is that we have no reliable source for anyone starring, because the BBC itself is inconsistent when it's not silent, and to argue from a DVD billing for one series only would be
WP:OR and
WP:UNDUE. Accordingly, I propose that we leave the "starring" in the infobox blank because we can't reliably source it, and leave the five main characters listed as such in the body of the article, because we can source that either from
IMDb (or) by reference to the relative number of episodes they appear in. And everybody's happy. --

I've moved it here while it's being worked on, but I think it unlikely we'll get rankings:
Taking
WP:MOSFICT as our starting point, all Two Pints-related articles should be written from an "out of universe" perspective; this means (1) we write an overview of the whole programme and (2) do not just rewrite the articles to reflect the current position. In particular (1) Jonny is a major character throughout six of the eight series (2) Timothy Claypole, overall, has so far had fewer appearances than Floella Henshaw, Munch or Kelly the Barmaid, so writing "out of universe" means that he is NOT a main character. Neither is Wesley. That's the way it is. Arguments based on what "other articles do" just shows how poorly they are written. --
Rodhullandemu22:18, 6 April 2009 (UTC)reply

I've removed this because it breached out
neutrality policy. It started by saying "Two Pints has polarized opinion"- which is itself unsourced, but would imply critics have been either highly enthusiastic or highly opposed. The section then cited only two sources, one of them not very reliable, in support of the latter camp, and the proposition that Two Pints is "generally panned by critics". Sorry, but two sources only can not support such a broad statement, I suggest that if this section is to be replaced, it becomes more balanced and better-sourced, unless there are really no commentators who have praised Two Pints.

Nick Cooper (

13:58, 3 February 2011 (UTC)reply
I believe so yes. The first run was the original one, the second one is minus Johnny and returns after a years break and the third run sees the show "refreshed" with major cast changes and the exit of creator Susan Nickson. Also, its a common reference between fans that the "original" series with Johnny was the best - hence a verbal reference to the spilt in the shows run.

Sorry, but there are plenty of series where you could make that sort of arbitrary distinction, based on major cast changes, an apparent longer break in production, etc., but commonly no such separation is claimed. Just about the only exception is Skins, but there the changes are obviously far more radical that merely Ralph Little leaving, and more importantly are clearly defined by the producers in the way that they are (i.e. First generation, Second Generation, etc.). What some Two Pints fans may think is neither here nor there. Unless someone can come up with clear evidence that the BBC itself divides the series in the same manner, we shouldn't be doing so.

The first episode of season seven was broadcast live with many little nods to the fact that they were on live such as Janet saying she had just been 'watching BBC 3 and you would not believe what i saw' or mentioning the exact time until the show after them.
I didn't get the info I came here for. The 'Plot' section is in fact a (too long, IMHO) description of the development of the series. I think a short summary is needed, covering the following:
who are the 'five twentysomethings' mentioned in the lead? Name, relationships with one another, character traits, roles in the stories?
where does the action take place (I'm guessing it's a pub - called what? where, what kind? If not a pub, then where?)
what style of comedy is it? character-driven, trad-sitcom, puns & one-liners, comedy-drama?
I feel the pages needs some updating i have taken note of the plot which i can make more clear for readers to get a sense of what the show is a about, also minor updates need to be changed to the characters episode count. I have all reliable sources for the information i will be adding and all sources will be added if i get a chance to update the page.

After February 2018, "External links modified" talk page sections are no longer generated or monitored by InternetArchiveBot. No special action is required regarding these talk page notices, other than
regular verification using the archive tool instructions below. Editors
have permission to delete these "External links modified" talk page sections if they want to de-clutter talk pages, but see the
