The People's Channel

I've only got round to watching last Sunday's tonight, after all, anything's better than bloomin' spelling!

There were definite signs of Melvyn having to say what he was told, rather than what he thought was correct.

A very sad state of affairs in my opinion.

Was nice to see a shot of the videowall at South Bank transmission, though. You know, the one of which I'm not allowed to speak!

I see there is another book about ITV out from early September....

ITV Cultures: Independent Television Over Fifity Years

The front cover looks interesting, a sort of mish mash of idents over the last 50 years.

Just trying to find details about the book from different websites but to no avail.

Well quite the saddest question I've found myself asking for a while -- but what is that meant to be over the HTV West area ?

And Tyne Tees doesn't exist according to that.

Looks like the start of the 1989 generic HTV Cymru Wales ident to me. It's the bit between the 'H' and the 'T' of the HTV aerial.



Nor does Channel!

Down a bit dear -- in the westcountry.

I'm sure it's perfectly obvious, but my eyes can't see it. It just looks like bubbles on a lollipop stick.

Oh, that .
Could be the form up of the old Harlech ident.

Good start to this weeks show. They admitted that they knew why Simply the Best was a flop.

It looks like the TV-AM egg cups to me?

And missing off Tyne Tees, that's surely a big cockup, or just to wind up Adam?

And they're talking in 'past' tense.

At least again like last week's they're being a bit more honest about the flops and why they were flops.

Though I have the feeling this is going to be all 'Sunday Night At The London Palladium' and Ant & Dec quite frankly.

Definately the egg cups.
