There's scripting at the "we're going to talk about this, dig out your best related anecdotes/old material" level, and then there's scripting as in "here are your scripts, first rehearsal is at noon".

Right, but there's a growing narrative that panel shows have grown closer to the latter, which is a large part of why they're struggling as a genre. I don't know why QI giving people the questions/answers would be particularly controversial, where shows like buzzcocks would give the answers and even have them rehearse the songs, etc.

As I may have said pages and pages back, Buzzcocks at least was scripted completely as my girlfriend was paid minimum wage and not credited for writing for it. A few of the guests were allowed to ad-lib, but not many

Is anyone else using iPlayer via a VPN? Have they 'fixed' something? Because mine doesn't work any more.

BSam posted:Have you seen the film Lockout? It's a lot of fun for a rubbish sci fi film. I concur with this, it's super fun once you get past the dopey b-movie premise. Gilgun is hilariously creepy (At the time I remember thinking "that weird skinny guy is the best thing in is.") I love how a space prison full of murderous psychos has a big red button that opens all the cells at once. Of course it does! Oh wow, I had no idea John Carpenter successfully sued the makers of the film for ripping off Escape From New York/LA. No wonder there was never a sequel despite the obvious set-up for one.

Good news everybody - yet another Sherlock Holmes adaptation is on the way! Cast: Will Ferrell as Sherlock Holmes John C. Reilly as John Watson Lauren Lapkus as Millie Rob Brydon as Inspector Lestrade Kelly Macdonald as Mrs. Hudson Rebecca Hall as Dr. Grace Hart Ralph Fiennes as Professor Moriarty Hugh Laurie as Mycroft It sounds stupid as hell but I bet it's still better than the last episode of Sherlock

If they have Ferrell and Brydon play it utterly straight while everyone else chews the scenery around them as insane events occur, it could be amusing.

BBC just adds "breaking" to every article it pumps out, even when it's just lovely celeb drama. If you get notifications from them for that kinda poo poo, disable them, it's a scam and they're going to keep doing that bullshit.

Any time something connected with one of their shows happens which could vaguely be construed as "news" they chuck alerts all over it. Happens all the time with Strictly and used to happen with Bake Off too.

I listened to a radio review and was bugged that someone who was paid to consume media for a living ran out of taboo ideas after "incest and cannibalism". What about crossing the race barrier, the poster is a guy in a top hat w/ a painted face. Anyway, why did none of the UKTV thread posters inform me that they've been superimposing ghosts into scenes. I had to find that out from the Taboo thread.
