Wormophile posted:Oh dear. I don't even like it when they start talking to somebody in the audience, never mind having one of them on the panel. Think I'll give this week's one a miss. No, whenever this gets asked people always say they have trouble with the concept of points/winning meaning nothing and just playing to make the audience laugh seems weird to them.

Sion posted:What, where did you find that out. In his next article, on 26 July 2008, Coren said his Jewish ancestors had been persecuted by Poles. He stated that Poles used to burn Jews in synagogues for entertainment at Easter; and that Poland is in denial about its role in the Holocaust. He used the racial slur "Polack" to describe immigrant Poles, arguing that "if England is not the land of milk and honey it appeared to them three or four years ago, then, frankly, they can clear off out of it".

Veotax posted:Quick question: do channels like Sky Living get to ignore the watershed or something? I was watching a pre-watershed episode of CSI earlier this week and it was pretty gory for lunch-time TV (it's the episode Quentin Tarantino directed, rated 15 on DVD). Were they allowed to show it unedited, or did somebody screw up? I think they do, Sci Fi or Syfy as it's called now show some pretty hosed episodes of X Files, Angel and Buffy. They edit language or sexual references sometimes but then you'll see someone with a shard of glass shoved in their eye walking around or whatever at lunchtime.

sex pervert posted:My gran thought Gary Glitter had really been executed. Granted, she was a lady who thanked BT's 1471 lady every time she used it but I still wonder how many gullible people are taken in by poo poo like that because it's on telly. I was going to say not many but then I remembered all the actors who play wife beaters on soaps get attacked in the street for things their characters have done so more people than you would think I guess.

jyrka posted:Big Fat Quiz of the Year keeps going worse year by year. The ones 3-4 years ago were really good. 09 was good, that was Brooker and Mitchell, Ross and Brand and the last team was 50% good with Winkleman and Mcintyre (Claudia Winkleman is seriously funny as hell when she gets to cut loose on these programs, maybe that's just me). However I think if I'd been in charge of last nights one I would have just binned it and started over, jesus. 50% of one team being bad is manageable but not 50% of the entire show.

So now they're advertising new Being Human, feels like that happened very quickly but then I suppose it was January last year Series 3 started. New vampire obviously and looks like it's going to be about George, Nina and the baby. So that vampire lord who swore to murder them all right there if they didn't do what he said in fact didn't do that. I think I'm going to find it hard to take him seriously as a threat in this series if he's the antagonist.

HoldYourFire posted:Wait until you see the episode where you see the same events from three perspectives (the one with Linguo). It's cut down to two perspectives, so nothing makes any sense. Wait what? How do they do that? The channel 4 ones can't be that cut down surely? Regular episodes are 22 minutes and cutting out an entire 3rd act would make it about 16 tops, I'm going to have to see this sometime. That episode wasn't great but that would make it complete garbage.

Not really UK TV specific but is anybody else on Lovefilm? I just got a subscription and the first 2 discs they sent me are barely functioning, multiple scenes where they freeze and I have to skip through them. Is that pretty common or was I just unlucky? At least the BBC instant watch section is pretty substantial.

Yeah he said more wipes were being made but it's not screen, news or games. It's something new thats got a bit of each of those as well.

Fatty posted:The thing is the QI episode kind of invalidated her other tribute to Ken Campbell in which she retired the puppet to ventriloquists dummy heaven. Then of course a couple of years later it appears on QI. I thought it was the other way round? That QI episode was 2 or 3 years ago and the documentary where she goes to the puppet graveyard was only on a few months ago. When she was on the Richard Herring Fringe podcast she was talking about it as if it was recent anyway, suppose she could have filmed it years ago though. She was quite good on that podcast.

toanoradian posted:Can someone recommend me a good panel/quiz show? I have exhausted my supply of QI, WILTY, HIGNFY, MtW, NMtB and 8/10Cats. I tried Only Connect, but the lack of audience is rather unsettling. Have you watched You Have Been Watching or The Bubble? The former is Charlie Brooker quizzing 3 panel show regulars about telly and the other is 3 celebrities get put in a house for a week with no phones or anything then David Mitchell asks them to try and answer questions about what happened while they were inside. That one isn't amazing but You Have Been Watching is pretty awesome.

When I said this to my friends most of them said they had proms in the 6th form, I was apparently the only one who didn't have the option at all (some did but didn't go) so maybe that's a thing that happens in the UK now?

Hey with Lovefilm do they start getting shirty if you report a lot of discs aren't working? Just asking because about half the discs I've gotten in the past month have been scratched up and stopped working at some point (usually just when the film/episode is reaching it's dramatic high point) and while they've been good about sending another plus something else from my list I'm worried they'll cut me off at some point even though they're all genuinely not working.

Does anyone remember an insect based computer animated cartoon? Would have been when I was 7 or 8 I think so 1995ish maybe? Everyone in the cast spoke with a British accent and it had a very British sense of humour, it was called something like Insectosaurs or Insectoids and I think the theme tune was them repeating whatever the name of it was over and over again. Anyone know what the gently caress I'm thinking of? It's been driving me nuts the past few days trying to remember it.

It's probably just a fun little christmas thing they've decided to make to make a big deal of the fact that taskmaster is now on C4 this year so they picked some more unusual guests than they would for a full series. I feel like if they put comedians who hadn't already been on Taskmaster before in a one off special thing people would be moaning that they'd wasted them on a one off thing so this is probably a better way to go.
