To simplify quite a bit, in interest of time and clarity, John Logie Baird invented television there.

Of course, if you're an American, Philo T Farnsworth invented the television.

If you're American, almost everything you know is wrong, so let's not go there.

It suddenly all makes sense!

Come Dine With Me.
I actually find this really fun to watch.
In a relationship.

Mythbusters. I'm bored of it now though...

It's strangely easy to watch. My nan intergrated me into it when she was staying here.

I was quite amused by it, errr, about a year ago, but the new ones just leave me cold.
And I am watching last and this week's Love Soup.

I missed most of this week's.
Bill Bailey's part was funny though.

Watching Come Dine With Me, myself. Agree that the previous series were a lot more fun, I caught one of the new one and it just looks a lot more dull, like they've got a half arsed cameraman on his first job, and overall it's just not as well constructed. The commentary saves it somewhat though.

Yes, the commentary is rather amusing. I've been watching this for the past 2 hours on more 4!

Yeah me too, lol. Need to really get myself moving soon though, I've turned into a bit of an agrophobic the past few days, need the working week to kick in to drag me out of it, lol.
Back to Come Dine With Me though, I think its the mix of people that really make a week of programmes work though. This weeks (or at least the one on More4 at the moment) is quite a good one, but the new shows don't work so well in my eyes.
