Tv is rubbish. I just watched that programme on BBC1 with Richard Briers called Dad and it made me cry. I sit flicking through the channels then find myself watching QVC. How sad is that watching a shopping channel selling pillows for an hour.

I didn't like that programme either Loulou - very depressing.  I'd rather read a book.

I'm reading Robinson Crusoe.  It's a lot darker than I expected.

There have been too many watered down children's book versions and films, so people don't expect the book to be so dark. The same with Frankenstein.


Fat Friends and Desperate Housewives are the only things really worth watching on the box at the mo.

I watch



  • You Are What You Eat

  • Desparate Housewives

  • Life Begins

  • Emmerdale and Corrie

  • and any footie programme I stumble across

I do agree there is pretty much nothing on! Loved the Crystal Maze and Kryton Factor when it was on. Fort Boyard wasn't too either.

I do like quiz shows where you can play along at home and answer the questions with the contestants.

Yep, I like You Are What You Eat as well, and Ten Years Younger. They're such brilliant bitch-fests.


Gillian McKeith: 'Do you really have chips four times a week?' Fatty: 'Yes, I didn't think it was that bad'. GMK: 'Not that bad? You'll be dead within a year! And you feed your children like that? What kind of terrible mother are you?' Fatty then bursts into tears...

I love things like Time Team, Scrapheap challenge, million pound house project was amazing, grand designs is just the best. OOOH, and a nice bit of Richard and  Judy.

I like Time Team too.  My husband will be on the one on 6 March but they didn't find anything exciting.
