It's somewhat frustrating to listen on Catch-up, especially to Ian Payne. He's the only one whose daft first 90 minutes makes me want to add my twopenn'orth but I'm not setting my alarm for 4am! This morning it was choosing the best ever close harmony track. He had the boy-band playing clips from the records. Somebody agreed with me about Crosby, Stills And Nash but chose Judy Blue Eyes when it's got to be Guinevere. God knows what Dave Crosby was on but it was making him very happy!


Sorry - wandered off topic there. 🤩

Yet another reason to avoid the no-longer-funny HIGNFY - Vorders is on tonight's show;

I used to watch and enjoy HIGNFY about 20 or so years ago. I used to watch it with my late father. As a kid I used to always be going through his collection of 'Punch', edited of course by the late, great Alan Coren. Such a shame the way his awful, bone-idle, children turned-out. I just can't watch it now, it just seems to be a procession of self-satisfied millionaires (see Victoria and Giles). I guess as I've gotten older my prejudices against the metropolitan liberal luvvie elite have become more pronounced! It's on me, I know that. :cautious: Oh, and Paul Merton has never been funny, EVER ... well, perhaps once on Whose Line Is It Anway.

Actually Victoria Coren has turned into a bit of a case study unlike her consistently unpleasant brother.

I have been a fan for many years of Only Connect. Along the way it has been a long-running successful series presented well by a woman.

However in the latest series via a series of increasingly unfunny references to a book she is writing in her mind she has shown another side to her character. Not only self-obsession on the Jimbo scale but the inability to note that she had become quite a bore.

A shame as I had previously thought she handled the show well.......

Sorry for the off topic diversion.

I remember watching Victoria on Late Night Poker years ago, chain-smoking. I kinda felt sorry for her. Well, as much as you can feel sorry for a very entitled well-off person who never needs to work or pay-off a mortgage. Bitter, moi? YES!!! I AM. :ROFLMAO:
