ITV Play

Yes it is.

ITV Play simulcasts The Daily Quiz with M&M and The Mint overnights on ITV1.

Presenter/Caller exchange on the Mint just now:

Presenter: What do you do for a living?

Caller: I'm off on the sick at the moment.

Presenter: Oh really? What's wrong with you?

Caller: I've got M.E.

Presenter: Yeah? I've got something the doctors call skivitus. When I can't be bothered i just stay at home and call in sick... etc etc (Tries to be funny and obviously has no idea what M.E. is)

Worst hosts on The Mint tonight. Craig and Bev (panda eyes) make my blood boil. Craig is showing no interest in his guest whatsoever, just inane laughter and stupidity "Crosswits might be in the list we can't talk about it yet"! I sometimes feel awkward watching legends such as Tom O'Connor, Jim Bowen end up on shows like this.

Eek. Crashed into QM tonight with some random nonsense about us having the chance to choose which shirt we wanted the presenter to wear.

And The Mint's thick contestant #482: Retro game/quiz show? Contestent: "Deal or No Deal"

The Mint's 'blatently taking the mick" contestant #40: Retro game/quiz show? Contestant: "Brainteaser"

Cue long rambling about how Craig used to present it, to a bewildered Tom O'Connor.

"Think Noel Edmonds..." Contestant: Swap Shop. Honestly, people don't think do they.

Craig is like a cross between Johnny Vaughan and a chewed-up cassette tape! Rubbish, get some proper talent!

Urrrghh! I live near Maidstone....maybe I should apply for a job there.

JV is nowhere near as bad as Craig - he was even quite bearable when he did Space Cadets.

Craig is repetitive, obnoxious, big-headed, wooden and lacking in the eyebrow department.

On another note, Producer Stu (I think!) is presenting the "early" Quizmania tonight. Makes a nice change, he's quite good in front of the camera.

So no change there from when he used to present BrainTeaser then.

Stu looks like Sue Perkins after a sex change.

Quiz Call, FTN ... perfect I always wanted another

Unusual seeing producer Stu hosting Quizmania tonight. Staff shortage? I'm sure its him as we saw Greggles go backstage one night and having a go at him over an annoying sound effect!

They showed him resetting the keys on the jackpot once, too. I just get the two producers mixed up - the other one's Simon, isn't he? And Sky produces too!
