Now there's someone I've never liked. And never noticed his shoes either.towny44 wrote: ↑16 Apr 2020, 09:40Naga Munchetty is normally quite easy to watch and listen to, except when she gets on her high horse.
I remember when she took over presenting a revamped Working Lunch some time after Adrian Chiles left, she never gelled with Adam Shaw, who I always quite liked, and poor Adam seemed to be sidelined quite quickly afterwards, perhaps she was just showing her ruthless streak.

Has anyone else been watching Kate & Koji, the new seaside comedy on ITV starring Brenda Blethyn and Jimmy Akingbola, it has me laughing out loud.

Check it out on catch up or box sets, ITVhub, they are only half hour episodes, so it wont be too taxing for you all.

Re: The Children's Off Topic Thread
There is only one advert break in a half hour show, and watching a recorded version enables you to wizz through the adverts, or you can use them as a toilet break, or to top up your wine glass. Very useful things advert breaks.

Except you can't skip the ads on ITV hub. Great if you've recorded it yourself though. Our recorder remote has a button that skips 2 minutes at a go. So two presses and the average ad break is gone.

I used the ' Search ' box on SKY and located 6 episodes, the first is downloading as I type .... it'd better be good.

Well we do have similar tastes in politics, so lets hope that extends to comedy as well.Manoverboard wrote: ↑18 Apr 2020, 10:28I used the ' Search ' box on SKY and located 6 episodes, the first is downloading as I type .... it'd better be good.

We only ever watch news and sport live, and the news is driving me mad currently, and there is no live sport so they are both of the menu, for everything else we wizz through the adverts.Mervyn and Trish wrote: ↑18 Apr 2020, 09:45Except you can't skip the ads on ITV hub.

No, there are no precocious children in this one, but lots of interesting characters, that have grown during the series.Mervyn and Trish wrote: ↑18 Apr 2020, 13:10
