The Daytime Television Thread

I really enjoyed Richard Hammond's 5O'Clock Show. The reason because on PO'G he always starts off with, and I Quote

"Do you know i woke up this morning with a right backache, I took a painkiller and went back to sleep before feeding my cow Daisy"

I find this annoying and "a waste of time before the next VT" Hammond wasn't like this though. He was Amusing yet kept to the schedulenot wasting time with "This Morning" story's

I take it the Richard Hammond's 5O'Clock Show got Axed?

No, He said in the last series that he'll be back in late 2006, Early 07. But he had that accident and then he signed a deal with the BBC for a few million ££

The sum of both your names is 653351.

I;m still the original Number guys here!

LOL I noticed that, was about to say If you two know each other?

Looking at the TV Guide I notice theirs more from Jeremy Kyle. 'Half ton Hospital with.. ' starts Monday 3pm and theirs still his chat show at 9:25, glad I'll miss them both.

I don't mind This Morning too much, Phil and Fern rescue it from being completely crud. I think those two are very watchable.

Loose Women is great I think They do manage intelligent debate at times, and on occasion of interesting guests. The nice thing about LW is they rotate the panelists, but the good ones appear the most often (Coleen, Carol McG, Denise and Jayne).

LW has approved considerably since the insufferably right-on Kaye Adams went off on maternity leave

I don't generally watch Daytime TV, because of work. But I used to love coming home & watching Richard Hammound's 5 O'Clock Show, it was great and funny. Now, in that slot their is The Royal, I would prefer to have The Bradley Walsh Show, they may as well give it a go.

I normally watch Sky News between 11:00 and 3:30. I dont normally watch the 'top 5' channels in the daytime as all they show is house and auction programs!

The best daytime TV is Countdown and Ready Steady Cook . Everything else is quite rubbish. But we can be thankful that ITV Play doesn't make an appearance throughout the day...

"Hello, I'm Brian Dowling, we're looking for answers to 'Things You'd Find in a Pasty'... hold on... here's the answer... 'sheep's testicles'."

We don't want students waking up at 2pm to be drawn in to Fake Your Play or S**tterball .

Well RH5OS wasn't that good either...

Mothers of Invention - Mother inventors compete to win help from a Business guru who will help them to make their invention a success. (Some people who make some tat and call it an invention)

Journey to the Centre of Britain - Richard attempts to find the exact location of the centre of Britain. (WOW, breathtaking stuff)

You're Having a Laugh - Stand up comedy from everyday people who think they are funny. Each person has 1 minute on stage to try out their comedy. (To fill some time)

Gone to a Good Home - To solve the problem of unwanted Christmas gifts the idea of this slot is to leave an unwanted gift on your doorstep so that someone else may take it away. (You could do that yourself anyway!)

Martin's Money Tips - Martin Lewis gives tips to the public on how to save money. (The only good part)

Expert complainer Jasper Griegson gives tips to the audience on how to complain to get what they want from companies. (Martin Lewis is better)

The show also regularly interviewed the contestants and judges of Dancing on Ice.

Particular highlights included the flatpack challenge with Darius, ferret racing with Sara Cox, operatic football chants with Russell Watson and a performance by the "Billy Elliot" of cheerleading. (The rest of the rubbish)

Another quality commission from ITV.
