Guitar Heroes at the BBC
|
| |
I found by accident a BBC4 TV show called "Guitar Heroes at the BBC", there were some interesting songs. But what idiot though it would look good to take all old 4x3 footage, cut top and bottom off, to create faked 16x9, and made the picture quality look REALLY bad.
Why can't you just leave 4x3 image in a 16x9 box instead like BBC2's... more »

Shatner on HIGNFY
|
| |
I thought there would be lots of comments about this...
I was disappointed - not nearly as good as I was expecting it to be. I won't say that Shatner was pissed but he did seem to be having a lot of trouble reading the autocue.

BBC News scam
|
| |
I've had my suspicions for some time, but it is now obvious that the BBC no longer send their reporters out into the wide world to get their stories.

Last nights missing tv programme was...
|
| |
The Restaurant Inspector.
It was scheduled to be on Channel 5 at 9pm and they've been running promos for it since the last episode. Switched tv over from Planet Earth Live to find the programme had been changed to a repeat of Cowboy Builders. Soon as I saw it was presented by Dom Littlewood that was a reason not to watch it.... more »
