The Paul O'Grady Show

What happened to the flppin Organ Game? A few weeks ago it said it would be returning but i still havent seen it :S

And as someone said in this thread before ( i think) there are too many "behind the camera" staff taking part in the show. They are in it too much. And Berts voice goes through me! It reminds me of the person next door

It's about time C4 lifted the ridiculous blanket ban on viewer competitions - nobody is forced to enter them, and IMO as long as they cover themselves with the addition of free web entry and a charitable donation as part of the phone cost I don't think they'd be an issue at all.

That said though, The Organ Game should have been binned when Paul left ITV, but a new game in it's place would help the show.

The whole show has become so staged, it's a wonder Bert doesn't open the show with a clapperboard in shot everyday.

As if Fiona Phillips AND Jonathan Wilkes aren't bad enough we're then supposed to congratulate some random guy's first appearance on TV....

Oh the randomness. Maybe I'm just being picky now I don't know.

No I don't think you are.... Fiona Phillips alone justifies what you've just said

Fair enough picking on the choice of guests for the show, but I personally believe everyone deserves support when doing something the first time... I'd imagine 99% of the people on this forum could never do what he just did infront of a live audience.

Yeah thats as maybe but it was just the randomness of it all that got me - Paul was in the middle of an interview with Wilkes.

And he came on to sing after the part of the interview where Jonathan Wilkes was talking about him. Jonathan was part of the 'STOKE'S GOT TALENT' search through the city, and that was the winner. Not really random, just the right place to put him.
If he'd have just walked out (like they set up with the kids or crew) half way through Fiona's interview, then I could understand.

I guess that's the main issue with programmes that've been on for as long as Paul without much change... he tends to get critisized more than a 10 part annual series, cause he's on more for things to be noticed.

Personally, I find the programme just as entertaining as always, and would rather watch to be entertained, then spend an hour each night finding issues with my viewing but perhaps that's just me.

Not being bitchy when I say that, I just sometimes find these forums a little over-critical.

I had no idea there were venomous snakes in the UK. Trust Paul to stumble across one in his garden. If he had been wearing the Lily get-up, the snake would have come off worse in the encounter.

Not trying to be funny but I live quite near Paul and I'm lucky to even see a grass snake in my garden let alone an Adder!

Ah well, fair enough, TV was on in't background so I wasn't really paying attention fully.

Plus the fact I find Jonathan Wilkes and Fiona Phillips irritating.
