I have been watching the 'Celebrity' golf programme on SKY One and Mix over the Bank Holiday weekend and have been pleasantly surprised at how entering the programme is/was.

Jamie Theakston presented in a similar style to Channel 4's 'The Games' where Kirsty Gallagher filled in other bits and on the red carpet.

Sub-reporters were Bradley Walsh, Anna Walker and Jonathon Wilkes.

Overall it has been very entertaining and I'm sure ITV are kicking themselves that they 'gave' it away to SKY. Ant and Dec don't seemed to have played a visible part in the proceedings - has anyone spotted them yet?
This programme has generated many pages in most newspapers over the weekend and has been a sure-fire hit for SKY. I wonder what the ratings will be? (Considering that no other channel is putting on anything remotely interesting over this Bank Holiday Weekend!!!)

I was wondering if anyone would mention this programme. It is quite entertaining to watch, especially if you like the 'Eurovision style' comments from Mr Terry Wogan.

The actual golf match is presumably being covered by Sky Sports, as it's using their match graphics and is of a high standard.

I've also found it much more entertaining then i thought it would've been. It's made being stuck inside on a sunny bank-holiday that little bit easier Laughing

Plus it's also refreshing to see a celebrity show with actual celebrities! Lets just hope ratings aren't too low...I don't want the like of Jackie Stallone making an appearance in a desperate attempt to get people watching.

I saw them on the hotel balcony during the nearest the pin competiton.

Good banter from the commentators and on course reporters.

Ewen Murray to Bradley Walsh. "I've been in the US for the last couple of weeks. The last time I saw you, you were having trouble with that Leanne bird"

I must admit Terry Wogan makes me chuckle. He just can't take anything seriously.

Exciting climax to the competition still on Sky One now.

I think it would have been a welcome change if ITV had stayed with it, plus Ant and Dec would have been presenting. You can have too much Corrie.
