Is it Andy playing Uncle Fester?

Great show, its times like now you realise Christmas is only round the corner.

If you averaged out the timing at the end of last night's show with tonight's, you'd end up with perfect timing!

Tonight they finished way short, last night Paul was still talking after Olga had barked!

Why is Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday episodes pre-recorded. I thought Mondays to Wednesdays are live and Thursdays/Fridays are recorded?

Is it due to availability of guest hosts?


It's odd that on the Tuesday there is a recording at 12.30pm but no live show being done, and on Monday they are recording at 9pm

Paul O'Grady is always going on about how he started out on Channel 4 with Lily Savage on The Big Breakfast. But which era of The BB did Lily do?

It was after Paula quit (or was axed after she split with Mr Geldof) - around 1995/1996 first with Mark Little and Gaby Roslin, and then during Zoe Ball's stint on the show.


P.S. Barbara Windsor is said to be on the show AGAIN next week being interviewed by Ross Kemp.

So the bit where it started to go downhill. I thought I didn't have many memories of Lily on The BB, I must have already switched off at that point

I always thought that Paul O'Grady was live Mon to Wed as well and recorded on Thurs and Fri. How do you know it's changed?

I have found out that there is to be a change to the recording schedules anit when the guest hosts takes over.

Monday's show will be live with Melanie Sykes hosting.
Then at 8:30pm on Monday night Chris Moyles will record his show to be broadcast on Tuesday.

On Tuesday at 2:15pm Michael Buble records his show to be shown on Thursday.

Wednesday show with Lorraine Kelly will be live at 5pm.

Wednesday at 12:30pm Ross Kemp records his show.

These are the changes. I think the normal schedule will be back when Paul returns on the 12th November.

I'm surprised they still opt for replacement hosts for Paul's week off (at least it's down to one per series now) - you'd have thought reruns of selected episodes would probably give a better return without the cost.


Or even getting Paul to record a handful of extra shows in advance.
