BBC One announcer just now...[Fri 10:45pm]

I'm not sure whether the announcer's mind went blank, but when the "Next" screen for Jonathan Ross came up, he just said:

"Do you like Nicole Kidman?...[long pause]...Good..."

and then during the ident, mentioned tomorrow's Doctor Who with hesitation, as if it was ad-libbed.

Ironically, just before all this, I was trying to think of the last time an announcement went wrong on Network. Spooky...

It didn't go wrong.

I've said it before and I'll say it again.

You cannot do a live voiceover on TV or radio if someone is performing oral sex on you. It just doesn't work!

Which explains why one night I heard an announcement along the lines of "Now on BBC Whoaaaaaaaaaaa!"

Never mind that, Russell. When is your website going to launch? It's been on hiatus for at least 2 years to my certain knowledge!

And what was it I saw on there once "Someone, somewhere thinks about you before they go to sleep at night"?

Lol, you sure that was on my website! I only time I can think if I did put sommat like that when in the days of russnet : uk in which I pinched a few sayings from another website and put it on mine

As for the website, yeah I know but I have put a reason on a thread on TV Ark labelled CR:TV.

Ok, I admit... I'm just one long tease lol

Oi. That's my joke that I did weeks ago when the same comments about oral sex and BBC One announcers were made. How dare you.

It was me who made the same joke then, too!

Deja vu, or just a dirty mind?

Dirty mind, of course. This place is pure filfth.

Just to relive the magical moment:


That's the first time I've entered "oral sex" into TV Forum's search filter.

You can and it does - at least on radio

Were you receiving the same transmission?

Definitely a case of something going blank, I don't know what!

What you describe is what was on the script.
