This Guest Presenter thing is quite old now, maybe they should seriously look for a proper one?

Absolutely, seems it just seems to be spreading given that Buzzcocks does the same thing (and it's equally irritating). You need someone who can provide a constant tone and flow to a show or it just seems too disjointed week to week. Armstrong seems fine to me too.

I'm fine with Armstrong, he has done well in the past.

I think the producers know they should have Armstrong presenting full time. It feels like he's on it all the time. I don't agree that guest presenters keeps these shows fresh. A well-chosen guest can do exactly the same.

I wish Armstrong would change his repertoire on Pointless. Everyone is a great contestant who he's so sad to see go because they gave fantastic answers. I really like the show's format but fast forward through his patter because it gets so repetitive. They could easily make the show half an hour if they didn't spend so much time recapping or patronising the contestants.

They should just get Angus Deayton back. Never should've sacked him anyway.

Does anyone know what the gently caress the C4 continuity announcers are playing at with this "Today I am dressed as a..." business? They did this before and I'm buggered if I can work it out. Is it a haloween costume thing?

They did something similar at Christmas last year; kept announcing "The Simpsons" as "The Thompsons" or "The Pembertons". And then stopped all of a sudden. Very peculiar.

They could easily make the show half an hour if they didn't spend so much time recapping or patronising the contestants. The blame there really lies with the BBC stretching out the show so much. It takes so long to get through the questions and the answers, and then repeating them it takes what could be an interesting quiz show and makes it boring. Personally I prefer The Chase, if only because its a much snappier format.

Anyone watching the Bake Off final? Brendan's presentation is awesome, but I can't help but think James is gonna to take it. I don't like John at all.

Brendans' gonna win, even if he is a bit smug. I feel it in my bones (should point out I have a horrible track record at these things, was convinced Mary Anne would stomp all the competition last year) Also, the dread Soggy Bottom has just struck James' pie. Would still have stuck it in my gob though.

Oh no! James! His delicious raw cake goo all over the floor (I think it was the English-themed one. Alex Salmond probably pushed it over) I'd probably just sit down and cry on Mary Berrys' shoulder at that point, because i am a wuss, and you apparently need nerves of steel and balls to match to be a winner on this programme.

John! The man put salt in his rum babas by accident in week 1. Salt! I really feel Brendan was robbed. There may have been something a wee bit sinister about him, but the man knew his baking. But overall, what a lovely programme And nice to see all the competitors back for the finale. I loved Cathryn especially, being all chipper at the camera again.
