Re: Lyrics game
Right, then the connection must be maid, cos the other one's Livin' Lovin' Maid (Led Zep). Ok: what's the connection between these? "Tank fly boss walk jam nitty gritty You're listening to the boy from the big bad city" "I think I might be happy if I wasn't out with them And they're ...

Re: The X Factor Final
Joe's won Darren. In my opinion, he was the better singer and I would've voted for him based on his talent, and not because the likes of Lara Rostron want me to do it.

Re: I can't believe it, but I'll have to
It makes you yearn for Jeff and Rachel back in that slot. Crikey! "Jeff", "Rachel" and "slot" in the same sentence and no innuendo. That's a first. http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/uu203/SpiritmanProductions/biggrin2.gif Thank you. But really if that's what C4 can mu...

Re: I can't believe it, but I'll have to
Bumping this, but I see there's another change from Monday morning- the US teen drama One Tree Hill (starring Chad Michael Murray of Freaky Friday and Dawson's Creek fame,as well as Sophia Bush who was in the Hitcher remake with Sean Bean)will air in Countdown's old slot at 5.10am, with St Elsewhere...

Re: What do you read while eating your cornflakes?
I voted for the Independent. (Someone on here mentioned BBC News.I've just started to listen to Today on Radio 4 again- I've dipped in and out of it occasionally, but I'm listening permanently now as it's the one breakfast show here in the NE where you don't have to suffer Joe off X Factor rammed do...

Re: Guilty Pleasures
Another guilty pleasure for me is this show currently on CBS Drama called Models Inc, a spin-off from Melrose Place (itself a spin-off of Beverly Hills 90210) set in a LA modelling agency run by Hilary Michaels (Linda Gray), the mother of Amanda Woodward, Heather Locklear's Melrose Place character. ...

Here is a message from me. http://www.box.net/shared/jrhg2tpnij THIS RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D Wonderful message, Jason. Thanks for that. :D (I hate to be picky, as it was a lovely message, but Countdown has been going on Channel 4 for nearly 27 years now, not 23). I thin...

Re: Countdown in Coronation Street
Talking about Coronation Street, Charlie Lawson (Jim McDonald) was in Harry's Game, the 1982 ITV drama based on Gerard Seymour's book (he played Seamus Duffryn-could be wrong on the surname)- it was shown last night on Sky Arts 1. It also starred a pre-Casualty Derek Thompson, and it's theme song by...

Re: I can't believe it, but I'll have to
Derek, there is no such thing as repeat fees. Oh okay, thanks for letting me know, Jason. Is it only actors who get those then? Will Howie Mandel be getting them through St. Elsewhere being on here, or how does it work? Depends entirely on the terms of the contract the artist has with the programme...

Re: Pop, pop, pop Master + THE CHAIN
15 and 12 today - No surprises that I got no Jamelia songs :) I'm spoken for on Friday. Seeing the Spencer Davies Group and the Animals in Canterbury! Good luck Since Sue mentioned the Spencer Davis Group and The Animals (did you enjoy the gig by the way?), I thought I'd mention a pop music fact: A...
Re: Lady Gaga
My sister took me shopping on Saturday. On the way, she played me the Lady Gaga album in her car. When "Poker Face" came on, she mentioned how boys like to interpret that lyric as "poke her face". We giggled a little. I then told her about how it sampled the Boney M song "M...
Re: Lady Gaga
Oh god I'd forgotten how funny this was in the unexpurgated version (it was only ever the very very heavily edited radio version that got played when it was in the charts). "Lick my pussy and my crack" is the best ridiculous single entendre in a song since "darling, come here, fuck m...

Re: Lady Gaga
Disappointed that GaGa's original music video of her latest video "Love Game" was heavily edited from a soft porno to a bog-standard one! But the cut version still will raise a few eyebrows for many and I'm surprised the reference to "I wanna take a ride on your disco stick" is ...

Re: Deal or no deal
William G. Stewart may be getting old. Who could we get for Fifteen to One? Maybe, Stephen Fry? I don't know, he's 74, but he still seemed sharp on the National Lottery game a couple of years back. In addition, it's worth considering that Regent Productions is Stewart's company so he'd have to have...

Re: Deal or no deal
Something you would find interesting is that people here tend to enjoy the UK version of Deal or No Deal, while all of you absolutely detest it! Here's why. What would you rather watch? Overhyper people screaming at the top of their lungs, or genuine people with genuine emotions. That's right. On o...
