Francis Albert Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Caught the last 10 mimutes tonight. Sorry if it has been covered before but WTF has the BBC done to it? Unwatchable and inlistenable. About 5 minutes devoted to trying to identify an athlete's squeal. Someone I believe is some sort of comedian reading the questions on cards. Why depart from it being chaired by a ... sportsman?) Or woman. That worked pretty well.for decades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudyJudyJudy Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Never seen it so can’t comment but wasn’t David Vine just a commentator ? Not a sports person. ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartsfc_fan Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Sam Quek is a decent addition however 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malinga the Swinga Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 (edited) Watching it just now. Like Quek, but it will take time for McGuiness to settle in. Monye is a strange choice though as he has personality of wet sponge. Edited September 10, 2021 by Malinga the Swinga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgan Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 It was a great programme in it's day. Ally, Wee Willie, Bill, Botham, Dettori, Emmo etc. The arsehole Tufnell changed it for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Costanza Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 I remember being excited as a kid in the 80s getting the board game for Christmas (have a memory it was the number one gift that year, might be wrong) but not watched it in years. The addition of Paddy McGuinness isn't going to change that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjack Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 I like paddy mcguinnes, find him quite funny. However, this isn't the type of programme for him. FWIW, I think having him on top gear is the right choice, made it watchable again after Chris Evans and matt leblanc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think he is bad on those shows, watch that stand up show he done a few years ago and you'll see how bad he used to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not watched it since unless I've channel hopped onto it. I give a it 5 mins then normally say "**** off" and turn it over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iantjambo Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Maybe I’m just easily amused, but one of my favourite moments was when David Ginola was on it and as Sue Barker was introducing him, Ally McCoist (I think) got up and put a bib on her 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What the hell do the BBC see in him ? They gave him that awful stupid game show CatchPoint too - makes Danny Dyer look like an intellectual. Maybe there's a new category on the BBC's "inclusivity" tick list - annoying unfunny presenters. First it was that Rylan bloke with the cartoon face, now its McGuinness. What next - Ant & Dec ?
