Saturday Night Takeaway

[Caran]

What has happened to this programme? It used to be entertaining, now it is just rubbish. Luckily I record so I fast forwarded through most of it.
So disappointed with how it has changed.

It’s always had many elements of Noel Edmonds’ old Saturday evening BBC1 shows like Noel’s House Party. I agree, Takeaway used to be much better. Maybe they’ve lost their decent writers. The two Get Out Of My Ear so far have been weak - Mark Wahlberg was very awkward - as you can tell by Ant & Dec’s exaggerated fake laughter. I’ve never liked Ant Versus Dec, though thank goodness it’s no longer hosted by Kirsty Gallacher. Nor have I ever found the drama stories any good - The Two Ronnies used to include those (The Phantom Raspberry Blower, for example) but theirs were funny.

I remember the Phantom Raspberry Blower!

I didn't bother even recording A&D - I went and watched something else.
