"Controversially" claiming popular programmes are rubbish as a publicity stunt. How far Radio Times has fallen.

How could they miss Celebrity Love Island off that. It's the epitome of crap television, filled with wannabee zelebrities on.

And Quizmania, The Mint etc. Confused

Car Boot programmes are far worse!



Action "How much for this candle stick holder?" "£145" "Yeah sure heres the money" And cut "Thats brillant do you get much work as an actress then?"


In Reality:-
"How much for this candle stick holder?" "£145" "I'll give you a quid"

Heil Honey, I'm Home! ...okay it's not the most tasteful programme ever made, but please remember it was dropped after one episode, and it was only shown on the very short lived BSB, so who can say they've watched a full episode...?

It'll be an interesting read, but nothing probably too different from Channel 4's Top 100.... format.

Compaired to Pop Idol and X Factor, Pop Stars the Rivals was rubbish!

Crossroads Mark 3 but not mark 1 and 2 should be on there

What a disgraceful list.

50 worst programmes ?

Try looking in the weekly programme listings.

Going onto Crossroads, perhaps, Mrs Russel (was that her name?) gota part-time job in a super-market, and told Angel that she also owns a hotel. gel got jealous and dreamed about Crossroads Mk 3. one night. Then Mrs Russel could have gained the xtra cahs, gone back to the hotel full-time, and continue a mk 4, from where mk 2 left off.

Carlton said, it was just MK2/3 that were dreams, but they messed up the whole come back anyway. Had they got it right, they could have had the "Doctor Who" type hit on their hands.

But it is Carlton Television.. looks pretty, very little brain power behind it.

I saw that Breakfast were taking the opportunity to dig out Eldorado clips, did they mention the fact that its predecessor Breakfast Time was in the list?

This list says far more about the state of Radio Times than anything else. TVAM was awful at the start and yet Breakfast Time made the list, especially amazing when even before it became a news show dumped all over TVAM with their coverage of things like the bombings in Libya.

Dream Team? How can a show which has been running for 9 years (with a final, tenth season to come) be classed as one of TV's worst programmes? It also seems that the compiler thinks the show has ended given that he's put 2006 as it's end date.
