PlayDJ is attracting some disturbing messages...

"Your hair looks lovely today. Have you been to the hairdresser?"

"Your teeth look really white today. Keep smiling for your fans"


It'll be interesting if the texts are Quizmania related tomorrow night. The obvious ones may be stripped out, but the subtle ones using catchphrases, crew members names, in-jokes etc may get through


I tried to do a few the other night, firstly a bit blatantly, then more subtley but any reference to the old QM, whether by names, personal names, nicknames, in-jokes etc seemed to be judged at "unnaceptable for boradcast" - btw that is not a spelling mistake that is how they spelt it on the returning txt message!!!!!!!!

I notice last night on Make Your Play they were actually recommending viewers dial no more than five times, and similarly were telling us how many callers were coming through every minute - giving some indication of the chances of getting through.

At 3am (I couldn't sleep OK!) it was 300 callers a minute.

That's excellent... I don't like watching MYP, but it's good to see them making steps towards being "fair".

Pop the Q on TMF has been doing a similar thing for a few weeks, telling you how many people entered in the last 'round'.

This PlayDJ is so cheap they even occasionally use The Mint's backing music.

Does anyone still tune in for Greggles anymore or is it just me?

Has anyone been following Iain Lee's exploits where he rings these quiz tv shows as Tony giving the answer "Ghostbusters 2" in all cases ?

He seems to have targeted Big Game TV mostly.

I've seen that! Laughing I thought it was quite bad the way Leah treated his call.

Thats brilliant!

Was reading the paper yesterday and it revealed some horrifying traits about how these quiz channels operate...
