I'm sure Miranda Hart (her that does that execrable Miranda sitcom) is a jolly nice person in real life, but her voice does my head in.

She's hosting HIGNFY tonight. 3 minutes in and I want to throw something through the screen to stop her saying anything else in that wobbly, posh girly-girl voice of hers.

Hi, I've come to apply for the doctor's job. I can assure you my credentials are top-notch, I've just graduated from Harvard College Yale. I aced every semester, and I got an 'A'.
Corrie tonight, I thought I saw the factory wheelchair girl stand up? Either she's very lazy or it's just my tiny telly.

She loving did! I thought it was something I had missed, but she raised herself up at the bar. And that flabby titted ginger monster screaming as she was giving birth haunts me.

It rather let me down. I was hoping for full on Acorn Antiques, with people having a crafty fag trying to edge out of shot and running into the camera, but they must have rehearsed the poo poo out of it. In the old days, they would have rolled up 10 minutes before, had a fortifying bevvy and muddled through.

I think the wheelchair girl is actually disabled, so whatever she can do her character can do.

Do any of you think the Partridge movie would work? I mean Ianucci pulled it off with 'In The Loop' as a 'The Thick of It' spinoff but jeez, he must be pulling out all stops with this one.

So Frankie Boyles new show has got the reaction Channel 4 needed to stir up some controversy and get some viewers.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-11976410 posted:

Channel 4 has defended the right of comedians to make jokes which "push boundaries" after reality TV star Katie Price complained about Frankie Boyle.

Price said Boyle's joke about her disabled son Harvey was "vile" and she criticised Channel 4 for showing it again in a repeat.

Media regulator Ofcom has launched an investigation into the complaint.

The charity Mencap described Boyle's joke as a "disgusting" attack on a disabled child.

Price said: "By repeating Frankie Boyle's show, Channel 4 are embracing and exploiting discrimination."

(I don't know what the joke was but I imagine he said gently caress in it, just because he can on late night channel 4 tv)

He said that Jordan & Peter Andre are in a custody battle over their son Harvey & eventually one of them will lose and have to keep him... & that the only reason Jordon has started dating a cage fighter is because he's the only person who can stop Harvey from loving her.

Not the best jokes he's ever done but still, better than Mental Illness Knightrider!

Recently got our own version of Take Me Out in Ireland and if you think the girls on your one are a little rough, you've seen nothing yet. Still one of the most entertaining shows on tv though, it's even got a bit of a following in my group of friends. Friday night, pre-drinks in a mates house, episode of Take Me Out, then out on the town we go.

Since our version is hosted by "Paddy MacGuinness" I can only assume yours is hosted by "Trevor Gough-Calthorpe"

This is a show that by rights I should hate, yet I actually really enjoy it. In fact, I'd almost be tempted to apply to go on it myself (or I would be if I wasn't such a terminally sensitive fairy manly stud who doesn't need a TV programme to get a date)

I loved how some of the chubbier girls were turned off by the fact that the first guy was a personal trainer, as if he's going to come home after work and force them to do exercises.
