CiTV & Ministry of Mayhem thread

April 2002 last I heard!!!

How much of CD:UK is actually filmed on a Saturday - I very much doubt it is all live!

The only bits of cd:uk that i think are live now a days are the performances from the guests on sm:tv live; and the links in between. Other performances that are live will be of the guests that do the hotshots discussion; though they are usually guests on sm:tv anyway!


BTW. Classic SM:tv; most prob the best clip ever is about to feature on the naughtiest bloopers on itv1 ant, dec, cat and pumping in the biscuit tin!

Oh yes I bet ant and dec still find that funny now, they should show it next time they are on This Morning!

The whole of last Saturdays cd:uk was recorded the previous Saturday and Friday.

CD:UK keeps getting caught out with the performances they choose to show. Cat claims that the group/artist is live in her studio but regularly they are in fact miles away and live on TOTP Saturday. Obviously somebody backstage is watching ITV1 as Fearne & Simon are usually onto what has been promised on the other side and quash that by saying the act is live there with them and if you see them anywhere else this morning its not live. Its funny to watch this happen and its becoming more frequent.

Cat Deeley is never going back to Sm:tv because even if the show does perform better when TSS is on hiatus it would be steping back instead of going foward in her career. Bigger and better things are ahead for her on BBCONE/ITV1 primetime.

How can Cat get away with saying that the acts are live in the studio if they aren't? Perhaps she only means "singing live" instead of "here live."

Neither of them have the acts live - it's all PR!

She obviously renrewed it - last I heard, ITV wanted nothing more to do with her, because she's doing Fame Academy. However, it does look like her contract expires in December 2003, which is when SMTV will be axed. CDUK will likely bite the dust too, rather than introducing a new presenter.

Did anyone see SMTV's Shevaugn in The People's magazine on Sunday? She was unrecognisable because she was so glammed up!

I wonder what Ant, Dec and Cat think of going head to head in the Saturday night schedules?

She seems to have disappeared, how many weeks has she been off now?

I thinbk it could be four. Because of the weeks that they have done ghost busted. They had two normal eps; last weeks included busted destroying ghost busted (so i presumed that this sketch wouldnt be on this week, perhaps they had no new ideas!) and todays.

Back in the first year of SM:tv Live; cat had four weeks off with ant & dec joined by female guest presenters; then the following week they went on holiday and cat was back with guest presenters for four weeks, meaning ant, dec & cat weren't together for eight weeks; and when they did return they had the new set that everyone knows and thinks of SM:tv live.

Did anyone read the people mag article; if so did it mention anything about her and SM:tv Live?

She surely wouldnt be doing magazines if she was on her hols! Unless they are holding her back until Tess leaves and stick her back in with Des & Stephen! Although the trailers on CiTV still say 'Watch Stephen Mulhern GUEST presenting with Tess & Des on SM:tv Live.' Unless its like Jonathan Wilkes did after H & Claire left and did a lot of guest presenting in a go.

i was watching TSS once and S Club where on it Live! and then at 11.30 on CD:UK they had them doing the show so that must not have been live right?
