I'm enjoying it, wish they wouldn't keep cutting away from it though. Fair enough for the Comic Relief clips, but the couple reading tweets are awful.


Radio 1's Greg James was doing it earlier and wasn't that bad to say that I don't think he's done much telly


To be fair he was the better of the two, and he was much better than who we have now.

Have to say Mock The Week's recording is very very smooth compared to the others so far, although David Walliams is lacking much input really. Will be interesting to see what happens as the night goes on.

This whole thing is going to run ridiculously over by the end.

I think it could be studio 3 because Tom Deacon tweeted this picture in the last hour and he is there.


TC4 according to a reliable source. Although I don't know where the "pod" that is doing the continuity is. Can't imagine it would be a big studio like TC3.


The pod looks like it's in an office somewhere - they referred to "upstairs" earlier. The wide shots of the studio don't seem to show much audience seating so may not be a 'traditional' setup like Jonathan Ross had

Also didn't realise this was today but nice to see the behind the scenes getting ready, currently for Celebrity Juice.

The links between are bloody awful - but I have to say this edition of Celebrity Juice is brilliant! Who would have thought that Germaine Greer and Jedward would work? I like the fact it's a bit haphazard.

Humble apologies for missing the thread - I did look through, honest! Clearly couldn't see for looking. Anyway I've been enjoying this enormously. Yes I agree the links are appalling but the budget must be virtually nothing (at least I hope they haven't spent much on it)

Anyway - edited highlights of what I posted Wink The pickups after the recording of Mock The Week were particularly good. It showed if nothing else what a pro Dara O'Brien is...!

Blankety Blank was excellent fun too - Paul O'Grady hosting, with Babara Windsor, Keith Harris and Orville, David Walliams, Stacey Solomon, David Tennant and George Lamb on the panel and two members of Blue as the contestants. At one point before the recording started, the floor manager asked Paul if he could remember the rules and he said "I had no idea when I did the show - I did 72 of them - 60 p*ssed and 12 on drugs !"

Looking forward to QI - I see from twitter Sue Perkins and Bill Bailey are on the teams, so it should be good. I have to say, David Walliams doesn't seem to quite be throwing himself into it ...

Oo - slight controversy regarding QI? Alan Davies has just posted this on twitter:
I'm not doing this QI thing tonight. I was told Stephen couldn't do it. They asked me to host in his place. I declined. Heard nothing since.

David is just being David, plus he can't be "full on" for all the shows, as he has 24 hours worth to do.....

According to the schedule page, QI will star Stephen Fry, Russell Tovey, Jo Brand, Sue Perkins and David Walliams. No Alan Davies or indeed Bill Bailey.

Selective tweets:

stephenfry: #24pp is being streamed live on http://t.co/HoMDOzB and - I daresay - elsewhere too. Oh. And it's @Jo__Brand not @BIllBailey

BillBailey :am I supposed to be somewhere? nobody tells me nothin'...

As is probably obvious but just seen there's a 10 minute delay (according to the clock that flashed up on the Argumental prep just now anyway).

Yes - and earlier (pre watershed) they were dubbing on Big Brother style birdsong during the more fruity bits!! (Of which there were quite a few during Blankety Blank!!!)
