I always feared TVForum had a horrible undercurrent of xenophobia and bigotry. Not only have you criticised Nadia's accent, which to be honest is more understandable than most Geordies, Scots or Cornishmen, but you've also been so childish as to call her gender into question. She is a woman, and has been since her gender was corrected. Grow up the lot of you and stop making stupid, BNP-inspired remarks


Don't worry, you're just one of the masses who has been brainwashed into this far-beyond-common-sense-and-basic-morality Political Correctness.

Nadia skipped over half-words and even whole words rendering almost every sentence unintelligible.

Haven't the producers ever heard of re-takes? Or was the voice-over recorded at a studio in a spare hour that they managed to wangle from a 'friend'?

Actually, I just invoked the tolerance I was taught by my family and have had my entire life.

I don't believe in political correctness - vertically challenged my arse.

Facinating but that detracts from the fact it was a very poorly read script

On The Wright Stuff this morning they advertised it as if it was the highlight of the night.


Didn't that get axed years ago?

It's a Yes and No, it was originally made by Anglia Television, but when Granada took over Anglia they got rid of it, but Five wanted more and Princess Productions took over the programme, it's been in their hands since 2001 or so now, it actually comes from the old RI:SE studio.

Though for me TWS is the only programme I watch on Five, just a shame it's on at 9.00am, 10.00am was far better. Now people say Five is a good channel and it is at times, it shows documentaries at 7.30pm, something you wouldn't get on ITV.

I couldn't bear Monday night's Top 50 Reality TV Moments, just not my thing, as I usually like these sort of programmes, also not keen on Reality TV really.

The problem with TWS though is Matthew Wright who is such an opinionated prat and cuts off anyone who doesn't agree with him.

I thought News 24 were planning some sort of phone in a while back? It never seemed to materialise did it.
