Well, I think it's me, but I just looked in the mirror, and I'm sure that Christopher Biggins was looking back at me.



Unanimous - The Fallout. E4. 10pm. Tonight.

OK OK - either you really are Greg or you are under a serious delusion.

PS. I'm more Christopher Hitchens than Christopher Biggins.

Saw you. On E4+1 admittedly, but it still counts. Therefore you can now claim to have been on two channels at the same time in the same building.

And on two consecutive channels on Freeview... 30 and 31! Laughing

I flicked over to E4+1 for a couple of mins to spot Greg, then flicked back to ITV Play for another few mins, then went to sleep.

(Mollie was in for Les on WM breakfast on Saturday, so had to listen!)

That Debbie bird looks pretty fit IMO!

I was also watching the fallout show also on E4 +1.

I was just waiting to see if Greggles would be asked to air his opinions on the show - just to see if he'd slip in any of his catchphrases (and thereby completely confuse the audience!)

If QM had never been invented then Debbie would just be another faceless local TV blonde weathergirl - which is frankly where she belongs. Flash would be a wierdo - oh wait he is already -, Greggles would be back at Butlins, locked up like a circus animal and little children would feed him scraps of paper from his 1980s joke books. Finally, as QM started the whole ITV play **** in the first place, there would be NO Mint, no Play-****in-Date, no Izit or Bonus Ball, or no other Play-related crap. AND MEN AND MOTORS WOULD STILL BE ON FREEVIEW!!!!


Don't forget that Quizmania was going months before ITV contracted it exclusively for its own networks ( includingITV Play). Even when QM started it shared/split airtime between ITV1 and a couple of other minor "Entertainment" channels.

Even if it is the end of QM on ITV I'm sure it would go back to splitting airtime to a few "Entertainment" channels or even be picked up by five to replace the very inferior quiz-call and clones! - and then hopefully get back to the decent prize amounts which it had when it was on ITV1.

I see QM is still having two hosts despite it being on half the length - though I expect they'll drop this next time they do the rotas!


And putting Playdate on at 8pm shows how crap it really is!


I wonder how much the ITV Play channel makes in comparison to the overnight slots on ITV1 (and ITV2). Just judging by the prizes, I'm doubting the channel itself is actually the cash cow ITV were expecting!
