From what I saw, it was OK. A little reminiscent of
Whose Line
, but very distinctive.

Didn't she used to be an actor back in the day? I think if the programme featured just comedians, it would be too much like Mock the Week
I suppose it's because she does live telly where she has an idea what's going on; so they probably thought it amusing to stick her in a "live" situation, where she has no idea what's going to happen.
And I think she is a funny lady lady, she certainly makes a good double-act with PIp Schofield

And someone whose claim to fame is working on "This Morning" is what, exactly?

It's a good show, but I wouldn't have thought it's target audience would be in on a Saturday night.
It seems more suited for Sunday, probably at 10pm.

Yes but they put Hardware in that slot back around 2003 and it flopped hugely. Mind you, it was pretty dire...perhaps that played a large part.

Personally, I didn't find last nights show as good as the first one. Be interesting to see if the audience kept with it in the ratings this week.
I wonder if ITV would drop it leaving it open for the BBC to revive it in a year or so presented by Brucie or Graham Norton and re-title it to "What Kept You?" or "Ah! There You Are. Where Have You Been?"

Same here.
And they lost me at the second commercial break and I won't be coming back next week.
While I'm here, I also tried Duel, but won't be back for the next edition of that, either.

Surely if Brucie was hosting it would be called "Nice to see you"...
(Oh don't give them ideas..!)

I have to agree, it wasn't as good, which is a pity as I hoped it might improve! I recorded it last night so was able to skip Paul's rather embarrasing intros and links, the montage sections (that all the contestants do earlier) and also Clive Anderson's input (beacuse I can not stand the man).
A major problem is the poor supporting actors who don't seem to have the ability to go off their script.
I don't think I'll be back either.

I'm starting to think this programme may benefit with regular comedians. I mean, fair play to ITV for having a different selection each week but it just seems there's something missing.
Never-the-less its a great show!
