Or cars?

Or antiques.

Mind you, there seems to be quite a lot of competitive antiques-shows nowadays, so what about a competitive videogame show? Perhaps we could get some loveable curmudgeon to be the ajudicator, a "Games Master", if you will.:v:

His persona is clearly exaggerated for comic effect. Da big daaaaaawg.

Nothing about his time presenting Pimp My Ride UK was comic, however, except in the tragic sense.

I don't like music but I find Radio 4 too stuffy and I'm not that into sport. What radio stations are there for me??

Buy an mp3 player, buy a shedload of audiobooks/subscribe to podcasts, roll your own radio. It's just the shame the Bugle has finished, really.

Another 4oD recommendation: Garth Marenghi's Darkplace.

Nonononono. Get this one on DVD. Watch it once straight, once with commentaries.

Just got round to watching Question Time, and Christ is Ann Leslie difficult to listen to.

On a related note, I caught the end of Any Questions getting into my car, just in time to hear Ann Widdicombe vomit up an amazing little dollop of internalised mysogyny. You'd think after her finally airing her mental dirty laundry on the I2 debate, she'd not be invited back to anything at the beeb, but...
Kind of sad to see that level of cognitive dissonance so obviously on display, but given who she spends her time associating with, I suppose it's to be expected.

You seem to be confusing what you like with what the BBC are supposed to do.

The BBC do have some sort of duty or other to put out programming that wouldn't be viable on advertising-driven stations.

For as long as I can remember ITV has always been mediocre.

Behold, the shameful, craven words of someone who never watched Knightmare!

Why can't we have a great Mechanic-off? 20 contestants battle eachother to see who can build/repair various vehicles and vehicle parts the best.

Each week the vehicles get more varied and interesting until a champion is crowned.

I'd rather watch and learn about building/repairing cars than some shite cake-off.

This is from a week ago, but Jesus Christ, someone needs to give Tim Hunkin a shedload of cash to update the Secret Life of Machines.

Has anyone else been having problems with iPlayer desktop? So often recently all the programs in my library disappear. I read elsewhere that this is caused by dodgy downloads, and removing some files from my repository brings the others back, but I haven't been able to actually view anything in a while.

An update to Air buggered it. help and stuff here

As a wrestling fanboy, I enjoyed the gently caress out of the BBC4 documentary on British wrestling.

Plus Christopher Eccleston has one of those voices that I could listen to for days.

I like me a good freakshow.
