Just going carefully through the video posted here...it is obvious that Fiona was hoping that Roberto would get the open line. Even with the compliments from Gerry, she was too couldn't care less. I agree with the remark made on an earlier post about this that she really couldn't be bothered. It's Roberto she wanted, without a doubt!
Also PLAYTV is advertised in tonight's tv listings in the Evening Herald..
Almost a week now, this is our 6th night without it. "We will survive" ....anyway had a few early nights for a change0 -

No, she's probably getting herself ready for to do the Canadian show tomorrow night! And the South African one tonight!

Does the fact that their previous relationship with UTV suggest to anyone that there could be a link with brain box?
Just an idle thought
TV3 never had any reletionship with UTV (just gutter press )
UTV is a separate company to ITV. UTV hold the Channel 3 Franchise for Northern Ireland while ITV hold the licence for England and Wales after the merger of Granada (owners of TV3) and Carlton. The new company - ITV plc - took control of their shareholding of TV3 and in 2006 sold the share when Canwest pulled out of TV3.
I always found brianbox to be more trust worthy, I think it is because it is produced in the North. Not that I would ring or that it is actually trust worthy.0 -
I got my telephone bill yesterday. €86 plus VAT.
. It includes the madness of the last night when I fell for Fiona's charm and challenge and tried to get through. I honestly didn't think I attempted that often but it'd include all my attempts over the past month. Smart telecom must be charging around €2 per call.
On the plus side the first check arrived in the post this morning
. €150 from Feb 12th. It was posted yesterday, from Dublin, by Phonovation ltd. Happy days! 0 -

UTV were briefly involved in the early days but lack of agreement ended it.0 -

RE: Your comp’aint concerning Play-TV Canada
(CBSC FUe C09/1O-1132)
Dear Mr. B:
We are in receipt of your letter via the CBSC regarding Global Television’s broadcast of Play-
TV Canada, February 20th 2010, on Global Toronto (CIII).
In your letter, you have expressed concerns regarding this show suggesting it may be a
scamming game show, with no logical answers to impossible questions.
Let me begin by saying that as responsible broadcasters, we are sensitive to the members of
our viewing audience and we apologize if this program has offended you. I assure you that it
is neither Global’s nor the producer’s intention to do so. As of March 2010, our contract
with Play TV will end and the show will no longer air on Global Television.
Under The Broadcasting Act, broadcasters are required to provide a broad spectrum of
entertainment and information programming for “men, women and children of all ages,
interests and tastes”, Television programming is required to be diverse and appealing to a
wide range of audiences. As a result, what one viewer might consider an interesting or
informative program might lead another to turn the channel.
Global Television adheres to the television rating system created by the Canadian Association
of Broadcasters (CAB) and the Action Group on Violence on Television (AGVOT). This public
rating system is intenaed to advise viewers of a program’s content in order to allow you, the
viewer to determine a program’s suitability for your own viewing needs and desires. As
required, an on-screen key airs for the first fifteen seconds of the program and matching V -
Chip data is encoded into our transmission for the entire duration of the program.
Play-TV Canada is rated 18+. Programming with this classification contains themes suitable for
viewers (and possible participants) 18 or older. We also air the following advisory coming out
of each commercial break, so that viewers can make an informed decision whether they wish
to watch (or participate in) the program:
The following program requires participants to be 18 years or older. Viewer discretion is
advised.
Independently produced, Play-TV is paid programming which consists of’ a series of puzzles,
riddles, trivia and other general knowledge and skill testing questions, (collectively, the
“Quizzes” and individually, a “Quiz”) which viewers will be invited to solve interactively during
the live broadcast of televised episodes of the television program entitled Play-TV Canada (the
“Program”).

canwest.com CANWEST & DESIGN is a traderoark of Catwest Global Corrrrrroticatiots Corp. Used orrder license.
Please note there are crawls at the bottom of the screen in addition to verbal mentions made
continually throughout the telecast informing viewers that once they decide to play, they will
be charged $L99 per call regardless of if they are randomly selected to go live to air or not.
Again, this is explained both on-air by the host and on the show’s website.
For further information please visit the Play TV website at:
According to the Producer of Play-TV, all puzzles have robust audited methodology. This
audited methodology means that there is only one correct solution to the puzzle and question,
and that this solution is checked and audited. Not disclosing the methodology, (having this
formula for counting) does not mean there is any trickery or anything hidden in the puzzle.
Everyone viewing has an equal chance to calculate the answer and all telephone and on-line
entrants then have the same chance to be randomly selected to come live to air to answer the
puzzle.
Where appropriate and applicable, the Producer’s puzzles are first checked and validated by a
computer program, and the one and only answer is then checked again by the show director,
prior to broadcast. The answer to the puzzle is then handed in a sealed envelope to the host
and he or she opens it live on air, either (1) immediately if the correct answer is given by a
viewer, or (2) at or near the end of the show if the correct answer is not given by a viewer.
This ensures a fair and open process as the answer cannot be changed once it has been
approved by the computer, double checked and placed in the sealed envelope. Please be
assured our audited system is supervised and checked regularly. How the answer is reached
is not explained because these puzzles often follow the same format – to explain how one was
calculated is providing the formulas for many others; that would not allow all viewers to be on
an even playing field.
You, the viewer, are our valued customer. As such we strive to ensure that our viewers will
continue to watch our programming. We appreciate open dialogue with our audience because
communicating with our viewers helps us do a better job,

That is a precious piece. Very interesting though the way when he mentions going to the toilet, obviously with his mike still on, that they suddenly start giving the dial tone sound....pity ha ha! (might have missed an even better PTV experience)0 -
First time last night I turned over to Brainbox. Heard 2 familiar voices, Gerry and Keith. Also a guy rang in from Donegal and gave his name as Bond - it was a game guess the other word WATER..... HE gave GATE and it was wrong. Carmel commented then on the Bond name saying (certainly not a first name)"oh I suppose there were different Bonds over the years"! Also they almost had a Noel episode with a guy phoning, probably had been at the pub, saying "drinking water" and she said no, "it's water something" and caller from Limerick replies "Ballygowan", no tells him again it's water.... and he gives a third answer (i forget) but it was really funny. 0
