What have you watched on TV?

[MK Shrimper]

"Essex Rivera" my foot, she's a full blown Saffie according to Wikipedia.

And one of the finer looking ones at that - damn the BBC for wanting it rated 12.

Lara Pulver on Wiki :raspberry:

Strangely addicted to "The Bank Job" - George Lamb is ****, the questions are for dribbling idiots, it's full of errors, and much like the Million Pound Drop the contestants are all under 30 and easy on the eye, but it has something.

'30 Rock' and 'The US Office' are back on telly. All is good in the world.

The 1970's TOGWT was so much better.The best pop programme ever on TV (after the 60's RSG of course).

I meant Southender, but I can see your confusion.

Not for me - Turned to Mrs C and said only thing I must of bought in 77 was Exodus - the rest on this show was dire:omg:

Bugger, I meant to Sky+ this. I hope they'll repeat it during the week.

Not on Iplayer H?

 

[Berrichonne shrimper]

If you have wi-fi H then you can play i-player on the tv through the v-box or ps3 or wii like we do.

 

[Uncle Leo]

Not on Iplayer H?

Just checked, no.

Got five stars in The Times today.

Wasn't overly impressed by last night's Sherlock - the whole Baskerville thing was blatantly obvious from the start, or it could be the fact that I kept nodding off :dim:

Sherlock was fantastic. Loads of nods to the original book, great acting, great script.

I'm hoping the latest adaptation of Treasure Island will be as good as Great Expectations.

Saw the first installment at the weekend; really enjoyed it. Going to buy some rum before I watch the second one, get in to the mood for it.

Honourable mention too for 'Something Else' - only on for a short while in '78 but had Peter Cook as an irascible host taking the proverbial out of the teenage audience and featured some great bands, including The Clash doing 'Tommy Gun' and 'Clash City Rockers.' I can remember Joe being interviewed on it too. They never did TOTP, so this was a rare occasion to see them on the box.

 

[Rob Noxious]

Whoops - 'Revolver' was the show with Peter Cook in '78 but The Clash were on 'Something Else' which apparently was shown until '82.
