Anyone else seen this programme?

A very interesting idea - a programme about other programmes that are on at the same time..... genius, and it's quite entertaining

Had some good moments the last couple of evenings - Konnie Huq extracting a foreign body from Richard Bacon with tweezers and tonight Richard walking out the studio and appearing on Avago, which is in the studio next door.

I tuned it to watch it as billed yesturday. But all i got was a rubbish show with a guy in glasses that reminded me of Mr Fearnly Wittingstall, try to fill badly. Whether it was a technical problem or not, i don't know. But everytime i go to tune in, its never on!

Just occured to me that if the above was the other way round it would sound very odd indeed

Just switched on, good job it's after 9pm! Shocked

I thought there were rules about re-broadcasting other channels? Hence QVC UK always tuning into QVC Germany when they're showing off a new TV.

PMSL at what the caller had to say about Amanda Holden on the NMAs "I don't like the f*ucking ugly bitch presenting it!" Laughing

I've seen one of the shopping channels showing off TVs tuned into BBC News 24 quite a few times. The camera had the TV screen full-screen too!

Strange. They have just screened a promo for a programme on Channel 4 on Sunday. It must have been recorded from Sky as it had the 'New Grid' interactive dog in the top right corner.

It seems as long as they've got the channel name and number on the screen - by someome frantically pressing the Select button on the Sky remote - or the channel name in the yellow box, they can get away with showing any channel.

Much like the 'Courtesy of...' things on news.

Mary-Ann Hobnob seems obsessed with Challenge TV.
