Re: TV Live Forum Watch News and Information Board

Oh good, it's like clockwork isn't it? Except now they've gone official with it, closing BBC Four and CBBC and guess who decides to show up to spout "OH, BUT CBBC WAS BETTER AS ONE SERVICE, WHY DO WE NEED TWO?!" The thread is a slog to read TBH. It's driven by rose tinted nostalgia. I thi...

Re: TV Live Forum Watch News and Information Board

I feel a bit mean complaining as it’s all just different forms of geekery but… isn’t the technical side of the BBC Three launch super dull. I don’t get those people finding ‘secret’ feeds ahead of the launch. It’s not even like it’s anything new, it’s just a return to five years ago. I keep going i...

Not to mention people complaining about live action idents being used for BBC1's new package like as if it's the end of the world.

Re: GB News - Does anyone take it seriously?

I have rarely tuned into GB News since it launched but every time I see it on air it is shoddily produced. Not to mention, the various scandals by which it has gotten itself into. Andrew Neil bolting from the channel and News UK observing GBN's failures (and announcing a talk based channel) really d...

Re: High Street chain collapse sweepstake

I had no knowledge of that but gawd it does give some insight to the sort of organisation that it was. The last couple of times I went in they had hardly any games but seemed to mostly sell old used phones at prices that would make Cex blush and those bloody awful "Pop" vinyl figurines. D...

Good lord. While I rarely contribute to the Newsroom - the constant negativity with regards to Sky News does come to something.

Re: Decision '17

Anyone else tried this 8values survey?

Thought this was relevant to post - but said news will have an effect on thousands of applications on the App Store, as well as Apple's approach towards 32-bit app support. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-04-11-older-iphone-ipad-games-are-warning-users-theyll-soon-become-obselete iOS 11's min...

I'm pretty sure it's that GMB format topic - where he's asking for the full format of the programme, whereby he could instead tune in at 6am. Besides - he's one to watch.

Re: TV Forum Watch News and Information Board

Oh most of the comments have been amazingly over the top, especially from certain members (including a certain member who seems to keep posting just to hammer the point that they think they're shit), but that is to be expected. I am surprised at the overall negative response from established member...
