Does my self-destructive media consumption tendencies go as far as to see a movie starring Jack Whitehall in the cinema? Answer: I paid money to see Fant4stic. Plus I actually...kinda enjoyed Bad Education... Trip report coming soon.

Trickjaw posted:Right, who allowed Jack Whitehall to make a film? They fired the camera crew from that as scapegoats for everything taking too long. Following that the production hired extra security for Whitehall in case of vengeful camera bods. Lot of problems with BBC3 producers expecting their feature film to be exactly the same as their small-scale studio comedy.

I watched an episode of ITV's Travel Guide ("to Dubai"), a program where the producers scour the country to find the worst people possible (except one couple, who seemed cool) and send them to the Middle East, and now I think I understand why ISIS exist.

Did anyone see that Top Coppers on BBC3 Wednesday night? Mate of mine from Uni wrote it, but I didn't get a chance to see if it was any good yet. Seems like a British Danger 5 by the trailer. https://youtu.be/3_pVFgCjXiY

There's not nearly enough attempting to kill Hitler in that trailer to make it Danger 5.

I haven't finished watching, but I hope Dorret goes. Can't believe that she didn't practice her show stopper. IIRC she's a project manager? I won't say good, but that was pretty inevitable - she's been mediocre every episode. Angrymog fucked around with this message at 19:22 on Aug 21, 2015 |

The office tea club segment was accurate. I rebelled against my office tea-club and started bringing my own coffee in because I resented paying for their milk and sugar when all I had was black coffee. The breaking point though was the day no-one had a drink until 3 in the afternoon because no-one wanted to get up and make that round of tea.

I like Nadiya too, her wee face is so expressive, it's hilarious watching her squeak and grin and stare in saucer-eyed horror at her oven in the background of most of the shots. Think and hope Tamal the Anaesthesiologist will make the final three. He seems an all round decent sort.

Just going to say that British TV is amazing and the one thing I missed on holiday. Waking up to Bill/Louise/Charlie/Naga/Steph/Carol etc is infinitely better than CNN's 24hrs of Trump (punctuated by health insurance ads) or Canadian news networks showing local traffic all morning. There is way to much screen furniture on those channels too. PS, RIP quality, accurate (mostly) weather on the beeb. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-34031785

Nah, they'll get massively underbid by someone. The BBC will have to accept it, the quality of forecast will drop, complaints against the BBC will rise, the push for removal of the license fee will gain supporters, and we will step ever closer to the glorious free-market of television that we deserve.

Given that they have done thing zero to adapt I can't say I feel too sorry for the BBC (Nay, Liner TV in general, [Adult Swim] UK is Rick and Morty with half the episodes missing and Mr. Pickles, on a channel that only airs on Sky, at 1 am in the morning when only the most dedicated and out of that most out of their drat mind will see it) as it slowly sinks into the Tarpit like the growing dinosaur that it is.

What are you even talking about? The BBC has done a lot to "adapt" (in what timeframe?) where they haven't be deliberately hamstrung (like the iPlayer not being a giant archive of everything ever.) Don't believe the propaganda.

Because if you keep making the BBC worse and worse, eventually you can use "but it's poo poo!" as an argument to get rid of it entirely, which is exactly what the tories want.

I'm fully aware that the Tories are full of poo poo in their motives (nay, everything) but I can't even remember the last thing I gave a poo poo about in regards to the BBC that hasn't then gone to poo poo.

No idea what people expect from the BBC but there isn't any broadcaster anywhere in the world that matches it. Imagine a world without the natural history unit.

It's been a while, but Casualty have finally one-upped their ridiculous injury record. Last night's episode featured someone attempting DIY rhinoplasty. I poo poo you not.

Were they using a Dremel?

An xacto-blade. A dremel would probably work. Or at least make your nostrils significantly bigger.

Doing it themselves or trusting someone else to go at them with an arts-and-crafts tool? I'm not sure which is worse tbh

He was the ethical surgeon's dorky son, who was feeling unloved because of his foreskin, and since his dad didn't approve of such procedures (the ethics, you see) he did it himself and nearly bled out. This was like, in episode 2 season 1.

That actor, unkind as it may be to say, was a repellent monstrous loving freak. He looked like Captain Black transmuted into something approximating flesh. His acting was still wooden though.
