CiTV & Ministry of Mayhem thread

Nothing to do with the thread,but just out of interest,how old are you fanoftv?

BTW,my WinTV has got the addition of the video player now,which is great!

Who was on the show this week? I was on holiday and need to know so I can update the TV Tome guide.

In relation to the Holiday, I was in Turkey, and we had BBC Prime in the hotel. One of the shows I saw there was the Weakest Link Stand Up special with Des Clarke as a contestant, only several months before he actually started on SM:TV. I still think it's sad that Des seems to have vanished off the face of the earth since SM:TV ended. And I still miss SM:TV as well!

It is a shame that Des has disapeared, though so has Michael, and virtually everyone else seems to be disapearing off kids TV. The only saving point is that CBBC are live all day, and have different live presenters on BBC One. Nick have gone to a morning pre recorded show, Studio seem to have misplaced all of there presenters, and non of the others have ever bothered. We've lost virtually all of the live presention in the past 12 months.

Anyway as for guests it was Anthony Costa formally of Blue, and former bad girl and now star of Corrie turned pop star Debra Stevenson.

Interesting observation in last weeks show: during jibber jabber after one of the male kid wins, it sounds like one of the hyenas said "Bars *pause* tard" while the kids were cheering!. Not sure if thats what he actually said though! but it sounded like it!.

Yes - The Hyenas were not at ther best, performance wise.

Don Austin whilst splashing milk it at a kids face actually got half of his bare arm in shot.

Also he fell whilst puppeteering you could see The Hyena fall infront of Holly.

Lots of mistakes & gaffs on last weeks show.

Was everybody hungover after a nights partying I wonder ???

Is anyone going to answer my question about who was on the show last week? As I said, I need to know.

It was Antony Costa (Blue) and Debra Stephenson (Frankie Baldwin,Coronation Street)

I did answer it on Wednesday, anyway, great show again today.

Notice that the hyena's had their own little bits on the show today, even if they weren't that long using the part of the set (by the studio doors) that wasn't used by anything previously, even though the set wasn't particularily dressed.

Notice the return of double trouble today, now that Drake & Josh is shorter than Captain Scarlet, and they only shownt one spongebob, plus they scheduled it so that Drake & Josh starts at 10:35, which makes for a fuller feeling show when features run up until the end, if only they didn't end with someone performing, and if they're going to, why can't they run any credits?

Indeed, when Drake and Josh started so early I was wondering what they were going to find to fill the last half hour of the show.

That off the cuff game about football was a farce. The prop designer obviously didn't think hard enough about it, there should have been stickers covering the answers that Stephen could have revealed. Plus you don't write 3 and a half million as £3.5,000,000

Bradley Walsh was a good guest, giving Stephen a hard time, they probably know each other in real life. Jibber Jabber worked the best it has ever done.

Noise Next Door were ok, shame on them in Name That Tone, they work in the industry and didn't know any of the songs!

At the end they said that Jennifer Ellison was standing in for Holly next week, and it's another boys v girls special.

I noticed they've even taken the words to the theme song down, which used to be located to the props area.

Well with no song at the start and someone performing at the end, they don't really need it. It's a shame though!

Moving back to CiTV,has anyone got anything from citv when they started to trip over a bit in September 2003?
