Have to ask - anyone know anything about this:

"Everything that could go wrong has gone wrong," she says. "Guests have failed to turn up, guests have dried up, or been terrible on air." "No one has died," chips in Richard, cheerfully. "Though that happened to a colleague on regional telly. Bloke pegged out. And he carried on!"

Richard has just mentioned Harry Hill coming on the show saying he "made You've Been Framed good again... was it ever good before him?"
He can bloody talk, he presented the pilot!

This showed at the start
"We will be with you right through to the Spring"
You mean about 3 weeks then?
Paul needs to take longer than 9 weeks off as he needs to come back with new ideas. All the guests are on rotation now, so if there isn't any new ideas, they might as well stick on a repeat

Richard and Judy aren't exactly getting a fair deal out of all of this are they? He got 16 weeks and they get 9?!

I would be more worried about his heart! I think Paul need the 12 weeks off!

The original YBF was good, but that was when it was fresh and (fairly) original

The first series was great but then Beadle went all silly with a "look I'm acting in a studio built house" era.

That was the point that Lisa Riiiiiiiiley took over wasn't it? Can't make my mind up whether she was refreshingly bubbly or irritating

I don't think Lisa was ever in the revolving house. That was strictly the latter Beadle era IIRC.
For Beadle's final season, the computer-cartoon title sequence featuring the gaudy colourful rooms of the crooked house was replaced by a much less colourful GCI title sequence featuring a camcorder (so, mostly black/greys/silvers etc, then), and a shiny silver logo. Yet the crooked-house set remained! It was so mismatched
Although, I think the crooked-house was re-painted (multiple shades of mid-dark blues, or something), to not be so gaudy and multi-coloured.
At least two or three totally different sets & title sequences (etc) came and went during Lisa Riley's tenure. The blink-and-you'd-miss-it tenure of Jonathan Wilkes had yet another new set & titles. The Jonathan Wilkes era titles were the "orange VHS cassettes" titles, which - of course - have continued into the Harry Hill era.
I applaud the decision to go for narration presenting, rather than in-vision. But that does beg questions re: whether the laughter/applause in "canned"? (After all, there's obviously no studio/set, as Harry doesn't appear on screen. I can't imagine that they'd prepare the whole show - including Harry's voiceover - then put a studio audience in front of literally just a big screen - no live performers physically present - to laugh at just the clips and/ot Harry's comments? Would they?)
I remember that around the time of Lisa taking over, TV Times columnist Tina Baker thanked Lisa for "delivering us from Beadle"!

I prefer the narrator lead YBF but without the laughter. Like TV's Naughtiest Blunders which has Neil Morrisey narrating. It's so much better without the laughter which can drown what is being said on the clip, very annoying if the clip has a verbal fluff in it.
back to R&J, Their show is certainly different to Paul's show as it's topical as well as celebrity based. I can't see Paul interviewing Primordial Dwarfs for example.
