Scarlett is TV comedy gold - the look on her face as she described how they were all given national flags at her workplace, and each put some money into a kitty, and then it slowly dawned on her that it was a sweepstake for the Rugby World Cup. How the hell did she get into University?

Did anyone else notice the "middle" Siddiqui when he realised they were about to watch that Live Sex Webcam programme? For a split-second he was highly animated/leaning forward. Hard luck mate, you're rumbled. Your missus will spot that in a flash when she watches the show.

She was on DIY SOS repeat the other week 'helping the community' but craved the camera and came across as a busybody annoyance.

New Taff couple might be OK. Nice selection of puppies - probably more intelligent than some of the humans.

Lardarse Leeds girl - "Down south the chip shops don't do gravy". Well there's a reason for that you lump of mouthbreathing blubber. Why bother to deep fry potato pieces until they're crispy, and then make them soggy? Monkeys. Cretins. People who come in my Chinese takeaway order sweet chilli chicken with a gravy chip as the side order. Fair does - they're paying customers. But it must taste fecking vile.
How about roast potatoes?

You give them a crispy skin then chuck gravy over them.
no! the gravy goes over the meat, yorkshire puds certain veggies etc, but never the roasties, hey get a bit of mint sauce and / or salt and pepper and nothing else.

the gravy can be at the bottom, but never over them, hells teeth man are you mad smile

You are correct (tonight's episode is the usual version, but Monday's is a special episode as part of Channel 4's Stand Up To Cancer events over the next few days).

Tonight's is the Stand Up To Cancer episode, according to my Sky planner.

Apologies you are quite correct. I read the episode on Monday's listing in the Radio Times as the first showing of the SU2C Special which of course is being shown tonight (Friday).

Pretty sure having a previous conviction doesn't diminish his ability to watch TV.

Hey I expect Rose West gets to watch TV too let's get her on shall we?
The only reason boy George got assault and false imprisonment rather than rape was the fact the victim was a sex worker. He is no better than any other abuser.

He's done his time so that's it in the eyes of the law. What would you suggest for people who have done their time for a crime, never allowed to work again? You don't have to watch the show if you don't like someone who features on it.

Well that was dull. Bring back the non-celebrities.

Lee and Jenny are an odd couple to be mates. I love the look on his face when she's been really earthy - like her tale of finding an old pair of knickers in her trouser leg. He looked so disgusted.

Scarlett is wasted in whatever day job she has. Get on the stage, love.

I agree, celebrities were a disappointment. Prefer the original format.

Later tonight Channel 4 are showing At Home with Steph and Dom (joined by Jason Donovan, Jerry Springer, Phil Tufnell, and Louis Walsh). I am not sure what that will be like, as I would rather watch Steph and Dom on their own.

Compare and contrast with Ched Evans, former footballer...

Gogglebox still delivers! Hurrah.

The husband of the vicar must be the most docile and patient of men. She rambles, and he sits there stoically.
She might be good at her job and do a lot for the community but she's a terrible wife and really irritating. Maybe that's how he likes it but I fully expect to see the headlines when he flips and stabs her 14 times in the face and runs around the street wearing her skin laughing hysterically.
He must be the most emasculated man in the UK. Living with her must be purgatory.

It was a good episode, really don't know why they bother with the celebrity editions though. We almost didn't bother with it as we thought it was purely celebrities.
The celebrities just aren't interesting, you can tell they're thrown into a room together and forced to watch something, all the time trying to act natural and think of something funny to say as they know they're being filmed for the 'celeb special'.
It just doesn't work.
