Re: TV Forum Watch News and Information Board

The Masked Singer is as close to a DS tv show thread we've had for a while. If there was actually some production based discussion I might read it more, but I'm not interested in it as a tv show where people guess which minor celeb is dressed up as a chicken or whatever. If it’s a choice between th...

Re: TV Forum Watch News and Information Board

Oh good. The Mastermind thread is another guessing game with people either simply nominating their favourite presenters , or people totally unsuited, to be the next presenter 🙄

Re: TV Forum Watch News and Information Board

The worst comment was AlexS saying his death was “self-inflicted” because of his holiday in Barbados. Unsurprisingly they’ve been banned. Yes that one stuck out. The overall analysis of his recent events minutes after his death was announced was in poor taste. While it was certainly too soon, and w...

Re: TV Forum Watch News and Information Board

The love for Loose Women never fails to amaze me. How is it appropriate for a serious news presenter like Charlene White to be the presenter of such a sexist load of rubbish? Imagine the talk there would be if Sophie Raworth or Fiona Bruce turned up presenting such a programme on the BBC?

Re: TV Forum Watch News and Information Board

Brekkie made a ludicrous claim that having entertainment shows like Dancing on Ice and sport on TV is causing people to break the lockdown rules! The argument from him and timbouk seems to be that if they can’t leave the house and go to work then no one else (who have a reasonable excuse) should do...

Re: NHS Clapping

10 months on the most offensive thing about all this remains that Ms Plas claimed to have had the "spontaneous" idea for the clapping, despite the fact it had been happening throughout Europe and New York City for weeks beforehand.

My fault, sorry. I didn't quite realise what I'd be unleashing.
Never mind, just an observation.

Re: Coronavirus - Strange times

I can't help but feel though that this whole saga is a repeat of the travel corridors chaos. People have made plans despite knowing that they could be changed at a moments notice. Common sense was not applied in the first place! just like everything this year just because the government say you can...

Re: Coronavirus - Strange times

Desperately sad times. You can’t help but feel sympathetic for those that this affects. My mum and dad (who are in their seventies) decided months ago that they would have lunch themselves and me and then my sister and her family would visit for very short periods of time to exchange gifts etc. it j...
