Mostly just hoping those two posh twats who like Farridge and Reform are never seen from again. But I'm also curious, do you think it weighs in their editing decisions?
It gives me proper anxiety, I know they never eat the food on the show but it still gives me the ick
Remember when she needed convincing that Paddington from the animated classic, Paddington (starring Ben Wishaw) wasn't a) a real bear or b) a puppet with someone's hand up its arse?
She was much more willing to believe the David Attenborough sequence with all the animals was AI! Which I personally thought was a disappointing decision, they could have totally got away with a dog and a hawk but they lost me at the hodgeheg.
Anyway side note, did anyone else think that 'Beautiful World' through the eyes of the 'boxers was a bit depressing? I didn't watch the actual BBC broadcast of the whole thing (no TV license) and I'm sure I would have been quite moved by it too but it seemed everyone kind of missed the point. David Attenborough (and King Charles actually, not that I'm a Royalist by any means) is an activist and action is needed to preserve the world as it is.
It all just seemed a bit passive, no one was galvanised or inspired. Seemed like the message was wasted a bit.
Anyone know if I can watch Gogglebox in the US? Thanks!
Pete got so annoyed when the BBC news segment about competitive furniture building used the term “hex key” instead of allen key.
I understand why. The BBC are so insistent on not mentioning brand names (because of their status as a public broadcaster) that they refrain from doing so even when the brand name / trademark has become generic. No one is seriously going to think that saying “allen key” is a plug for the Allen Manufacturing Company - it’s a generic term.
I used to get similarly annoyed as a kid when Blue Peter presenters said “sticky tape” instead of sellotape.
