It does have to be said that BBC Three is a bit like whats the point these days. It really doesnt show anything interesting anymore.


For a channel billed as exciting and different, bordering on random it really is one of the most conservative and shobby one's on tv at the mo.

Stuart should be out the door and really have a radical re-think.

Note to self: If I see another episode of 2 Pints not to allow the Complaint's desk to fob me off with "we'll look into it". Urghhh!

I think Stuart Murphy left as controller a few months back didn't he? I saw him at one of the Little Britain recordings back in 2004. I should have said something but BBC3 was going through its 'changing' period at the time.

I sent an email to BBC3 and they fobbed me off with a pathetic excuse about 2Pints being like Friends and The Simpsons. It should be shown all the time because the public like it. Bit pathetic and lazy if you ask me!

I notice the continuity announcer is different from when 'Three' first started. I'm sure I just heard Dean Lydiate introducing in his formal tone.

BBC Three's continuity is almost entirely prerecorded; if there's a late change or if a programme is delivered late and requires a warning, then the duty BBC One or Two announcer may have to step in.
