I thought it was terrible but then I have an issue with Adrian Chiles. It just seems like another one of those ITV programmes "trying" to be funny like the awful Trevor McDonald thing a few years back.

I have to agree, the format wasn't too dissimilar to things like Russell Howard's Good News, but it just lacked any charisma and humour from Chiles really.

Well to be fair if you don't like AC it's unlikely that you would have ever liked it. News Night with Sir Trevor, I will agree though was pretty rubbish - but to be honest that's only because Trevor isn't really suited to comedy.
Wheras AC has always had a good sense of humour, albeit a dry sense of humour.

Funilly enough Avalon ( who make this ) also make Russell Howard's Good News.

I only caught the end of it, what a waste of Michael Palin! He's great as a guest on such shows but to have him on for only a few minutes was a bit of a missed opportunity

I enjoyed the programme, I am a Chiles fan so naturally I enjoy his dry sense of humor! I am not a big fan of Al Murray but I coped with him and it looks good does this show in the coming weeks!
I think even non-Chiles fans would like the programme due ot the guests each week. hating a programme through Chiles bashing is a bit of a non-viewpoint IMO.

And Frank Skinner's Opinionated which is also similar (Avalon are also Adrian/Frank/Russell's agents of course*)
In fact, Opinionated is in the original slot that this programme was meant to be in. It was originally The Ten Show and was meant to be on Friday's at 10pm. His commitments to The Ten Show (as well as MOTD2) was what caused the BBC to get a new presenter for Fridays on The One Show.
Apparently That Sunday Night Show is recorded on Friday nights
*and Al Murray, Avalon tend to keep things in-house!
