The Great Big British Quiz

I was watching this channel the other day and noticed this very easy puzzle, spot the difference. I came back to it about half an hour later and they were still on it, apparantly nobody was ringing in, finally someone rung and got it right.

I found it hard that nobody was ringing in, but then looking in their rules http://www.thegreatbigbritishquiz.co.uk/ the selection process is very dubious. How do they get away with this? Surely telling viewers that nobody is ringing in when in actual fact they are but are being told they have been unsuccessful against some sort of rule, if not it should be!


Is she on the picture a well known lassie
I think it's just a regular person just being used for the puzzle.

Having recently had cable installed (instead of my limited DTT offerings) I can honestly say I love all these +1 channels.

Long may they continue.


They can be useful on some channels, such as the popular ones as UKTV Gold, E4 or Discovery, but it can get pointless on channels that either show total rubbish or stuff thats going to be repeated anyway, say if a Shopping channel had a +1, that would be a new low.

Granted UKTV Gold is pure repeats, but that is it's selling point, and the repeats are usually of a high standard, unlike the drivel on UKTV Style etc.


Sorry to be pedantic but

1) A +1 shopping channel already exists - Screenshop 2*

2) A +1 on a live shopping channel wouldn't work because its more than likely that all the stock on a particular item will be sold by then and the onscreen information would be wrong - leading to accusations of misleading consumers etc.


* I'm not 100% sure on this - I think I read it somewhere that Screenshop2 is a timeshifted / reorganised version of Screenshop 1
Screenshop 2 was actually +30mins. And when price-drop launched it replaced Screenshop 2 anyway!

Kath & Kim Ending

I'm guessing you're talking about last night's episode were Kath said: "now I've got one word to say to you" and it went straight to the ABC graphic. That was ment to happen!

It'd be interesting to see how much ABC1 has evolved!

Yet another rant at Morrisons

He's already explained. Rolling Eyes

I remember an ad for that Scan and Go thing years ago and another one about the blokes that worked at their deli.

How exactly did the Scan and Go work? Did you scan your stuff and then give the cash to a real person? If so, wasn't it incredibly pointless?

Oh and my local Safeway's just changed into a Morrisons.

Original Desperate Housewives Trailer

Does anyone have this? I'd like to see how well it linked into the series. Yes sounds sad, but still, I'd love to see it again.

Im not surprised it got low ratings since they didn't bother to advertise it or show an omnibus, please please please bring it back five or at least show the remaining eps you have in a late night slot!!
