Today's show opened with Paul saying he hoped everyone had a safe bonfire night Rolling Eyes


Well what do you expect? These shows are REPEATS so they are bound to say things that dont fit in with current events.


Well duh. Do you think I don't know that? :


Well why complain then if you know the reason why this is happening. Rolling Eyes

I think that he was merely commenting on how stupid the situation was on ITV's part, regardless of whether he knew that they were repeat showings or not.

Yes they appear in that ITV1 ident! Smile

Seriously, it was the Nodding Busters which were ITV's property, not Buster himself!.

Paul now O.F.F.I.C.I.A.L.L.Y. starts at 5 o clock on monday March the 27th and in other news green wing is on friday the 31st of march at 9pm, coach trip and come dine with me are coming back into the scheduals.[/QUOTE]With our other vibrant returners in the mix - A Place in the Sun, Come Dine With Me and Coach Trip – it is an incredibly strong and packed schedule. All these shows share a sense of playfulness, togetherness and adventure. [QUOTE]

and in other other news channel4 is lining up quiz call in the morning on c4

What's the next new direction for Channel 4 at breakfast? Can we re-invent ourselves again? We're not just looking for two hour proposals (though if you've got a good one, please send it in!) We are just as keen to explore other patterns and propositions - perhaps a 30 minute show, or even a couple of them from different providers, one after the other. If your idea simply has to be 40 minutes long, then we can cope with that as well. It doesn't have to be live and topical - it could be a quiz show, or even a leisure show. It needs to appeal to the younger audience (ideally 16-34) and it needs to make them laugh... Critically it can't require its audience to sit down and watch the show from start to finish - even a half hour show needs to allow for its viewers to dip in and out.

Yes, because they are constantly trying to make a mint rather than take a hint.

(that sounded good didn't it? Wink )

The impression you get from the ad is that it's going to be exactly the same type of show only on C4. The ad shows the set being built with Paul & his dog in the middle trying to make an ad. The famous organ falls in and he says it's coming too. Basically it's just moving channel lol.
