I just started watching and have binged the past week. So after David’s wife was kidnapped for 5 months, they expect the audience to be ok with he and Vivienne getting together? I hope Carly comes back and exposes them.

I missed the episode of Landscape Artist of The Year on January 22nd. I then missed the rerun the next day! Is there any way it's showing again on Freeview soon? If not, can I stream it anywhere? I'm mostly interested in if it will be rerun on the TV so I can record it and watch when I'm free.

A brilliantly funny sitcom, starring the ever funny Rob Brydon (the world’s best Ronnie Corbett impersonator), set in the sweltering Australian outback. Two wonderful seasons, so sad we didn’t get any more. Is there anyone else who misses this wonderful series?

His name is Jim (think he said he was a train driver?) and he was on the last episode of series 2 of Popmaster TV. He was so familiar to me but I can’t find anything anywhere.

One thing that I’m starting to notice is that a few shows are being kept on air despite the fact that, in my opinion, they are way past their sell by date.

The Apprentice

A League Of Their Own

Strictly

I’m A Celebrity

A lot of people will argue that Strictly and IAC still deliver big ratings, but in my view, the format has become boring.

I cannot understand why A League Of Their Own is still on the air, it should’ve finished when James Corden left.

As for Apprentice, it’s only a matter of time before the format grows boring as well.

Are there any other shows who are past their sell by date?

Anybody else been watching Out There on ITV X starring Martin Clunes? It's excellent.... (No spoilers please)

I don’t know what it is about that lad (In dictionary corner on Cats Countdown tonight) as some of his stuff is just plain strange and unfunny but something makes me really like him and want to see more.

I know I've seen it on reddit before, but can't for the life of me remember the actors or comedy it was from.

It went along the lines of: Woman: "you never talk to me" Man: "I talked to you yesterday"

In their northern British accents, set outside in the countryside, possibly on a trike?

The woman reminds me of #NoraBatty but I could be misremembering, would like to find the sketch/comedy if anyone could help! Thanks!

Does anyone know why The Capture series wasn’t released on DVD?

Does anyone know where Tuesday's episode of Manhunt on Channel 4 has gone? It was supposed to be on that night but i've gone to look for it on 4 on demand and it's not there. Hope it's not gone forever.

I keep seeing their clips used in reels but don’t know what show it’s from .

Also the new judge seems to just be a pal of Prue... has anyone actually heard of this lady before? Caroline Waldegrave.

Also also... how many of these celebs have you heard of before? I know Jim Howick off Ghosts, and about 5 others.

A Rant.

So starting season 3 of London kills...so the hair cut on Viv looks great. She was so dated with her previous hair style. However, the make up for Rob and Billie are AWFUL! LIKE WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO MAKE THEM LOOK LIKE PLASTIC WHITE DOLLS. The make up on them is so thick and caked on. It's also trying to lighten their skin....RASCIST MUCH?!

Word to the production company you aren't supposed to be able tell they are wearing make up! It means the make up is poorly done!

I know they will need a few seasons with Don Gilet but Sara Martins would be fantastic and it would be a progressive move to have a female lead detective. Camile is qualified as a Parisian detective. A return would also allow Catherine to spend time with Camille's child. Maybe Camille is married and her husband can have some interesting job on the island like a professor at the local college.

As a 40y/o bloke, there’s not a single candidate I can relate to. Just a bunch of screaming whinging twenty somethings that wouldn’t be out of place on Big Brother.

Same predicable format, same boring board room, same shit Dad jokes from Lord Sugar. The show has gone stale and has been crying out for a revamp for years, but it seems that its fallen on deaf ears and they just changed its target audience instead. Out with the old and in with the new. No doubt Alan will get the chop and be replaced with Stephen Bartlett at some point too.

EDIT: Thank you, it was Shameless indeed!

Hello! I'm trying to find a show that I have only few vague memories of. Any chance here?

1. It's a lower socio economic setting
2. Drama comedy
3. One main character is a burly dad, has curly hair and is an authoritative small time criminal, wears a leather jacket
4. Had teens smoking weed in secret
5. Another dad has sleazy long straight hair, I remember a scene where he wipes his ejaculation on a kids teddy bear.

That's it, saw a few episodes back in the day and can't for the life of me find it!

Between Doctor Who and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy shifting around the fabric of time and the governance of probability it could be reasonable to say that every BBC original show happens in the same universe, but not necessarily the same timeline.

We may never know what conditions were required to result in some of the timelines, but it's a fun thought that the TARDIS and the Heart of Gold are roving around reality and keep missing each other.

It would have been a hilarious nod if the Doctor's date on Darillium was actually an early iteration of Milliways. I think that particular restaurant was unnamed, so maybe it could have been. Maybe the owners thought "these time traveler reservations actually work out! We can make a fantastic living off of this."

It'd be so delightful if some random employee at the BBC went out of their way to sneakily include the same stage prop in as many shows as they could without people noticing, like a coffee mug with a flag on it or something. That way some Easter egg hunter will some day find it and be like "that's the same one from the other show! Same universe! Transdimensional coffee cup!"

The stand out for me was the courtroom scene, when the usher calls “Bring on the skating vicars”! and then a load of clergymen skate across the floor.

Was just discussing the hit-rate being low for decent stand up to tv show transitions. Lee Mack's Not Going Out glaringly stands out as awful, Katherine Ryans one as well.

Some recent good ones i think are Meet the Richardsons (Jon R), 15 Stories High (Sean Lock), The Cleaner (Greg Davies) & The Cockfields (Joe Wilkinson)

I'm short on time to dig out others or discuss the best/worst, and just wanted to throw it to the community for recommendations and ones to avoid! PS could also be panelist > tv series, doesn't have to strictly be a stand up, but that seems to be where many get their start.

Clive Myrie reels off these wonderfully-written introductions about how challenging this quiz is going to be for the A-listers behind him, who are more used to chauffeur-driven limousines, first-class travel and being endlessly hassled by fans. Then we see them and it's a vaguely familiar comedian, a 75-year-old stage actor who has never been on telly before, person number six from an absolute dogshit sitcom and a radio meteorologist. Just a really noticeable mismatch.
