Discuss! Good thing or bad thing?

Personally I'm excited, but I don't want them to ruin the memory of this classic show. Easier said than done!

Its one of the best things Ive heard this year. Cant wait

Undecided really, I don't see a need to bring it back.

We need more Ted and Ralph, and of course Rowley Birkin QC.

Going by Paul Whitehouse's recent TV advert rubbish I think he's getting a bit desperate. The Fast Show was only good because we were 10 years-old

Similar feelings to red dwarf, it's great to see it back, but then when I do end up watching it I'll be dissapointed

Noooooooooo! Why touch a classic? It will be like making a remake of life of brian

I don't see why people are writing this off at first sight, didn't you guys see Bellamy's People? I thought that was pretty damn funny. I would hazard a guess that a new Fast Show will go along similar lines, i.e. more characters and situations rather than out and out catchphrases and one liners.

This week I will mostly be eating hamsters.

They can't bring back Rowley Birkin as he died in 2000

I loved this show as a teenager and always begged to watch it...Jazz Club is a favourite along with Chanel 9, Gideon Soames, Bob Fleming - the list goes on...I still like dropping lines at work.

I wonder if they will bring back the old characters or just do completely new ones? I bet it won't be the same...comedy has moved on (or down) due to BBC3.

No Mark Williams is a major loss. He was my personal favourite.
