Great comedy was gutted when they stopped it after only 3 series. The films were brilliant too. It was a very clever and well observed comedy. I think most people in our generation could identify in some way with the characters and storylines.

Nailed it there. It was so typical of lads that age. I was gutted too when they stopped after 3 seasons.
I reckon they could've at least got another 2 seasons as young adults. Plenty of funny stories to explore.

It was the last of the comedies that did not bow to the PC crowed. The amount of satire in there is brilliant and always well done. I was of the 15-18 age range in 02-05 so only a couple of years before the series started

You two have some ridiculous notions about 'PC', absolute bollocks. It's still aired constantly with no changes.
Yes, It may well still air, but I doubt they would create stuff like this now. Especially considering the misogynistic and homophobic slurs featured throughout. Maybe I should've worded it correctly.
