Season one of Trollied was excellent. Season two wasn't bad, but there were signs the show was starting to struggle. By the third season, all was lost. Andy and Kieran left early on. Rats deserting a sinking ship for sure. Season 3 also heralded a new trend for the show. Unwelcome new characters that debuted in the first episode and stayed all the way through to the end of the series. So you get Richard France, painfully unfunny after 2 minutes, but he was featured heavily throughout the series. Also, Gavin's girlfriend Anna. A dreadful character who never raised as much as a titter in every episode she was in. Also the fishmongers who were hopeless from the first scene they were in.
Sadly this continued to happen for the rest of Trollieds' run on Sky. Who can forget Granny Rose? Dreadful from the second she first appeared. As more regular characters left, new ones who couldn't fill their shoes were introduced. Amazingly Trollied lasted for 7 seasons. Each one worse than the last. Obviously Sky liked the show even if no one else did!
