Worth tuning into Him and Her on BBC3 after Inbetweeners, too.

Is that the guy from being human?

 Whats happening with Channel One/Virgin? They're showing Chuck and Leverage back to back - two of my favourite TV shows. And they just showed an advert for Nikita which they're picking up even though it's only just started showing in the US. Please say this channel will carry on existing...

Okay, okay, having slept on it a little I thought that the aforementioned Jay crashing the bike and the sudden "there are some things you can't say" bits were great.

It's just that I really think they went too far with Will this time, I know that the point of his character is that he says the wrong thing then is too stubborn to back down about it but in last night's episode he was simply a massive twat and I didn't get any sort of entertainment out of watching it.

I think you're being a bit harsh - being set up with a clingy giantess isn't my idea of fun, and he didn't know that her dad had died recently.

Anyone watch Whites? I quite enjoyed it; although it was a VERY pilot-y episode. But it does set up the characters pretty nicely. It has the woman from the IT Crowd playing the woman from the IT Crowd In A Restaurant though.

Seemed funny enough, in the slightly-sqirmy-awkward way that a lot of british comedy is these days. It's also got Dobby from Peep Show playing Dobby in a Restaurant as well.

 Spooks: the wrong kind of sun
Edit: they just used Charing Cross tube station as a plot point - it's got so many loving exits and levels and is a generally poo poo station.

Gotta agree to disagree there then. I liked it. Are you sure you arent having ... 'phrase that describes something that was great from a long time ago but if you watched it now it wouldnt be that great'

I know there is a word for that but its eluding me. Nostalgia maybe?

Rose tinted glasses?
