    How did that lad in Wales know to have an orange and empty toilet roll handy? Seems to me he was practicing in advance.

    You didnt actually expect any sort of rational logic from this steaming pile of s**t did ya?

    Potential Skype contestants are told to have certain commonly available props handy before the show. They don't make any secret of how that works.

    Ah... Didnt watch it all you see and therefore missed out on some key points. Thank you javaboy.

    I hope you're not suggesting that I did! :O I've never watched a full show. I just read that bit of info on the net.

    You can include me in that now.

    It was on in the background here (I'm in work), when I realised what it was I watched it for maybe two or three minutes before switching over.

    Sh*t.

    yeah, I didn't watch it either - last few weeks were punishment.

    i attempted to sit through the first few weeks to see if it got any better.....of course it didn't tho.........

    hahaha it is so ****e, i feel sorry for them...the humour in that programme is pathetic ..but sure what else do you expect from irish tv...the only good programme from irish tv was father ted..

    You don't say. :rolleyes:

    Seriously people, we need to start getting over Father Ted. It was brilliant and all but there's no need to compare it to every new programme shown on RTÉ.

    Not to mention that it didn't come from RTÉ anyway. Mostly Irish people involved but it was an English company. The best programme from Irish TV is probably Reeling in the Years.

    Exactly, I can't wait for this decade to end so they can make another series.

    Which in itself is a copy of the 'Rock and Roll Years' on the BBC. Great show though.

    In fairness a nostalgic look back at the events of a year set to contemporary music probably wasn't that hard to come up with. :D

    I think Reeling in the Years is edited exceptionally well though. Especially the implied jokes in certain segues and the music. I'd love to see the same people take the format to the USA. I've seen similar ideas end up falling flat and trying to be too documentary like.
