People's Court UK

This was particularly awful. Music awful. Set awful. Woman "Judge" awful. Everyone talking over everyone else. No idea what's going on.

On the contrary I thought it was well presented, a great set, and easy to follow - however you're right, they shouldn't talk over each other - it's a court.

I see this having a limited shelf life.

Looks like the Scotland Today studio.

I thought it WAS the Scotland Today studio. Or maybe they just bought lots of that paint.

What a tongue that female judge has, she likes hearing her own voice. I thought Sarah O on Scotsport was bad. The male judge was much better.
After the summing up, you only have about 2 minutes to decide your verdict, it should be longer. It is unfair to cast your vote while the evidence is being heard.
I liked the set, but not the ticker messages at the bottom of the screen.They had comments about the cases on air very quickly. It made me wonder if they were legitimate.

Damning verdict on Judge.

Was it live?

The result of the viewers vote obviously was, and the remainder was recorded about 10 days ago .

I also thought it was an extension to the Scotland Today studio.

I didn't really enjoy the programme but will give it a few more airings before I make my mind up!

I dont get why they don't buy some newer episodes of Judge Judy and put it on then. JJ is so much better that this crap!

LoveTV

I have an even better suggestion why dont they do this :

9.25 - Quiz Show ( Win, Lose Or Draw, SuperMarket Sweep etc etc etc )
10.00 - The Time The Place With John Stapleton

That line - up would be class !!

Well seeing SMG don't own the Evening Times any more...

This programme really was shockingly awful.

I really can't believe the most exciting case they could get for the first programme was some bloke trying to get his estranged wife's Madza back. FFS! Are we really supposed to be interested in this?

People who are used to Trisha's all-shouting 'My transexual sister ran off with my toy boy' chav-fest aren't going to be hooked by such tedious dirge.

Interesting as well to see that Trisha has abandoned the less confrontational more cosy style she launched with on Five for the exact same pikey freakshow format she used to have on ITV. [Edit - just seen this is being discussed in another thread].
