Jason, Virgin Media are one of the suppliers of television programmes. I believe one of the things they do
is to supply a box which enables you to record programmes and watch them later.
Virgin Catch-Up means the programme is recorded on the Virgin equipment and you can then watch and catch up when you choose.

Oh forgot to say got round to watching this on catch up... Well done, Ian. :D

You came over as a lovely chap...and can I say in a non-predatory, non-sexist way that your eyes are a lovely shape from that side angle. :)

That's definitely not sexist! It'd be sexist to say "your eyes would be lovely if you're a woman but they suck cos you're a man" :)
Anyway never heard anyone compliment the shape of someone's eyes, that's awesome! The whole package or just the actual eyeballs? heh

Thanks!

The shape of the sockets. Almond shaped, which are considered by some to be the most attractive.

Mastermind final on right on BBC Two. Quite a strong lineup so it should be good, then again it is the grand final of TV's toughest quiz. Then when this has finished switch over to BBC One for AQoS at half 8 then HIGNFY straight after and a QI repeat of series G at half 9. I don't know why on earth do people go out on a Friday night when the TV is as good as this!!

I'm pretty sure I would get more pleasure from TV quiz shows. Graham Norton Show new series is now on and then Celebrity Juiced. The only way I think your argument stands up is if it was with Kevin Ashman.

I imagine Kevin Ashman to be a very unconfident and nervous lover. Gentle but more through insecurity.
