No all us do is like to have debates. Mass debates at that.

What did you learn about the presentation side of things at CDUK?


Nothing much.

Most of it was researching and with Cat on the Saturday and some of Friday-I was'tn in the Gallery.

Saying this,I did watch them putting the pre-recorded voiceovers with Cat on the Friday,and also a sugababes performance being edited.

Quite often - sometimes they're even about TV presentation. Wink

I was given a few choices about what to do on Saturday's

-Video work for CD:UK News,backstage inserts,e.t.c

-up in the Gallery doing what I don't quite know!

-looking after celebs Shocked

-look after Miss Deeley

So that was it!!

I thought it would be,but Cat actually did'nt ask me!

All that kind of stuff was down to the Riverside Studios Runner.

My Job that day to make sure everything was arranged for Cat-what time she had to be in make-up,Tea as you said(lol)-basically make sure Cat was happy with everything.

She's one of the nicest people you could ever meet.

Well, this really IS a pile of **** isn't it. Let's all talk sh!t for Britian.

Getting back to the point, I don't actually think CDUK is very good at all, and I am not even confident it still "Number One" on a Saturday morning.

Problems I have with the programme include:

* Cat Deeley, so bloody annoying and squeaky.
* The screaming during the songs, CDUk should be about music.
* Teenage girls CONSTANTLY clapping in the background while Cat talks - is there really any need?
* The constant wonder that I have in my mind as to whether the acts are really there. When the camera pans round from Cat its pretty clear that they are, other times a camera cuts to a stage which looks to be filmed elsewhere - so they are not "live and in the studio" all the time Cat.
* That big gold CDUK Chart Saturday number one item. It looks cheap and tacky.
* The sponsors of the programme - why does it always have to be fast food and drink related - I thought the government were trying to prevent the promotion of products where teenagers get fatter and have their teeth rotten by some sugar-laden purple drink?
* Viewers having their intelligence insulted - why do bands need their name shown at the start AND the end of the song. I remember when it was just the start. It's not only CDUK that do it mind.
* Chart chat with people that talk crap - the good singer from Busted and people like Kelly Osbourne - put music on instead.

I don't think he presents music shows - although if a certain other comment about *him* was true then he might pop along if Blue were on...
