Birds of a feather

[Tigerjones]

Not sure who in their right mind thought it would be a good idea to make this show again. It was painful the first time, but now it's like sharing a bath with a plugged in toaster**. In fact, the longer I watch it the more I fancy the bath and a couple of crumpets*.

The one with the dark hair has snorted so much Botox she looks like Skeletor.

I am more confused as to why you would watch it Tiger.

 

[Tigerjones]

Not as confused as I was, I can assure you.

Not sure who in their right mind thought it would be a good idea to make this show again.

I imagine the result of a meeting which went something along these lines …

ITV exec 1: We have a hole in our winter schedule as a result of cancelling The Rolf Harris RoadShow.

ITV exec 2: DJ Dave Lee Travis would appeal to our demographic.

ITV exec : Also unavailable.

ITV exec 2: What about Jim Davidson?

ITV exec 1: F*** me, we're not that desperate!

ITV exec 2: How about a birds of the feather revival?

ITV exec 1: Get me their crap TV agents now!

 

[lexi]

Those two are lucky and I hope grateful to get the work.
A night missing them is one onto your life!

Their agents must be praying to get them at least a fling in Eastenders for icing on cake.
A life in acting using your playground dialect only.......cushty!

I hope you understand that this situation is similar to Wickham eloping with Lydia. I assume that there is some reasonable explanation, but until such is received... ...well, just in case - I wish you well in all future endeavours.

Regards,
Jonathan

 

[Tigerjones]

I'm on the edge.

**I'd like to state, for the record, that I don't own a toaster or have any immediate plans to get one.

*We do however have crumpets.

Bernard Manning
Val Doonican
Terry and June
Back on the box again, instead of all this PC, all inclusive ****ing **** we get these days. No doubt we'll get the PFM
PC Gardenistas along to tell us otherwise

No political reason I can see for excluding any of the above.

Couple of them are dead, which could prove somewhat insurmountable.

Mostly though.. they were all shite.

Vuk, is this you, Bub and an as yet unidentified PFM member at a private mana bake off in the recent past?

Dec, they look nothing like Vuk and Bub, I think this is Vuk

And as far as I know this is Bub

Now I'm on the edge. Toasting is as personal and compelling as life gets imo.
The Toasting Channel: there's a £million TV idea right there!

Well after the terrahawks was cancelled Zelda needed a job.

I'll never understand why people sit through crap TV shows by their own choice and then complain about how crap they are. Sometimes crap TV is unavoidable (eg at a relative's house where the TVs always on) but then it's involuntary crap-watching.

Resurrection of terrible programme shown on channel that specialises in showing stuff too terrible even for ITV? Priceless.

Unless you watch at least some of it how do you know for sure it's caca?
Obviously with BoaF one could reasonably assume, so that's the pedant in me talking.

'Sitting through' is the important bit. Give a programme ten minutes or so; if the first ten minutes are crap it's highly unlikely that the rest of the programme will be Bafta material.
