Complete with unedited email address and postal address though the announcer has been saying that it was first broadcast in 2005.

Also ITV have changed their schedules on Saturday night. They will now be showing 'An Audience with Joan Rivers' from 2006 at 10.35 after the late news.

Was it a series or just a pilot of The Joan Rivers Position. I noticed it was a So Television co-production and Graham Norton was on it if it was a series, wad he on it every time?

The Joan Rivers Position had three series with various guests. Katie Price & Peter Andre and Jerry Hall are some of who I remember.

I remember it for being quite naff. I think it could have worked as a general chatshow, but with the agony aunt theme it seemed relatively unfunny even for Joan. But this was back in the days that Channel 5... sorry.... five didn't have any big hitters like Big Brother and therefore probably had very low ratings hence its axing.

This is probably the highlight of The Joan Rivers Position:



A rare moment when late night Channel 5 had to use the bleeper (around 03:20), in brilliant circumstances.
