One of the funniest things i've ever seen that had me laughing and crying was the women on last years christmas day show that had to keep being injected with a vaccination because the reporter doing the news report kept messing up the line. I think it was 11 times or something.

And as Paul said after, she is protected against every disease known by man. You could stick her out in the cold with only her nighty and slippers, and bring her in the next morning with nothing more than a sniffle.

I saw that as well. Must have hurt the woman badly - I certainly wouldn't want to have a needle stabbed in me 11 times, let alone once.

They should have kept it as Auntie's Bloomers. I don't like the name Out Take TV at all

Laughing Do they still offer money for clips?


Yes, it's about £170 I think and I've quite a few to send off, but never get round to it. Sad

They must have something recording BBC1 and 2 all the time, a reporter colleague of mine was involved in a great live 'outtake' earlier this year he phoned them up when he got back into the office and they already had it!

I'm just like you, don't like needles at all. I'm assured by a friend of mine at East Midlands Today that she wasn't really injected all those times, it just looked like it.

Thinking about it , doing that for real would probably be medically un-ethical

So why not get the CA to do them? Twisted Evil


Because that's not their job!

It would be better just to have half an hour of clips without any links at all

A bit like that Saturday night programme a few months back, was it called just for laughs? Where they just had animations between clips?

An example of how not to make a television show. The only amusing thing about it was just how supremely bad the whole thing was, thanks in no small part to the hysterical canned laughter track running through the whole thing. Add to that the fact that not one part of the entire show was at all funny, and it soon became clear that insufficient consideration had been given to the programme's name during its conception. Unfortunately, even the combined commentary of Graham Norton, Stephen Fry, Jasper Carrott and Ben Elton would still not make this trash even remotely amusing.

There is no real case for ditching the continuity within Outtake TV . Granted, Terry Wogan wasn't exactly laugh-out-loud funny, but the likes of Chris Tarrant on Tarrant On TV and Paul O'Grady on Outtake TV do occasionally provide some genuinely humorous narration. A show such as You've Been Framed! wouldn't suffer greatly from a lack of in-show continuity not only because the jokes are very visual and rarely need to be explained (whereas some of the stuff that comes up on Tarrant and Outtake TV occasionally needs to be put into context), but also because that fat bag of sh!te Lisa Riley is utterly dreadful and thoroughly unfunny.* And yes, I would dare say it to her face, but only if I can find it hidden amongst her many chins.


* Also applies, to a slightly lesser degree, to Kirsty's Home Videos on Sky One.
