We're hoping to have a lot more info on the new TV show shortly, and will be opening a dedicated section of the site for coverage.

Is there anyone who feels like becoming a reviewer? Much like Uglybob does for the radio show, but for the TV. I'm not bothered if it's one person per day, or a person per week or just one person for always.

The show starts Monday 23rd September at 19.00. You obviously need to be able to receive Channel 5 (either via analogue, or through Sky)

[Minnie the Minx]

Maybe there could be one person allocated to a certain day

ie: Johnny - Monday's
Gaspode - Tuesday's

I wouldn't mind doing it like that. Although you would probably prefer a regular to do it.

[Chris]

Don't really mind. The show reviews used to be done that way and what normally happened was someone did one week then gave up. It'd be great to find someone with the dedication of Bob, but to be honest as long as someone is prepared to actually do what they say then that would be great.

If anyone is interested, PM me with your email address and let me know what day or days you could do.

[Miss Charlie J]

im sorry im a bit oblivious as to wot the show is etc have u got ne info?

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

i couldnt be arsed doing a whole week like bob but i would happily do a day im not fussed which.....

[Ickle Angel]

I could do one day probably but as I am looking for a job at the mo im not sure what hours ill be working and so would have to tape the show and review it off video.

[rattis]

CR@P i cant get channel 5

[Ickle Angel]

u can take advantage of the excellent reviewing then rattis

[tomwhite]

To be honest, I don't think the show will do too well. First of all, it's on channel 5. Secondly, Chris is no where near as good on tele as he is on the radio, so many fans are likely to be disappointed. I hope it is good, I'm just doubtful.

Does anyone know how long Chris is actually signed up to do this?

[Chris]

13 weeks

[Bridgie]

i wouldnt mind doin a day, its not that much trouble

[David]

but lets not remember to call it Channel 5 - the station is being rebranded in the autumn and will be called... wait for it.... Five!

[TJD]

i could try tuesdays. + maybe thursdays

[Chris]

Thanks to everyone who has sent me PM's so far. I'll bring them all together in a week or so and get in touch with you all.

[Uglybob]

I really want to get Channel 5 but the only thing putting me off is Sky. I want to pay for the thing without paying any subscription for anything else. Now i thought it was charged at £100 but then some others have told me you still have to subscribe to its cheapest package a month for at least a year. When they say cheapest, they mean £15 a month. Any one set me straight.

[Tall Pall]

The basic package is like £7 where you get very few channels. That was the last time I checked, £15 for the family pack sounds about right though. You should get everything but sky sports, movies and premium channels.

[TJD]

family pack is £15, i can confirm. with that you get sky1, bbc channels, itv2, e4, k!tv, mtv, e.t.c.

[Sam]

If I review the telly show, can I have special stars by my name like bob? Else I'm not doing it.

[David]

Can you not get the BBC Digital thing - no subscription, just one of fee for the box...



£79.95 at Argos...

[Gigglyboots]

Skys worth the fifteen squid! Its great.

[Uglybob]

do the five days and im sure he will give you it

plus i thought the bbc thing aint released till november

[Ickle Angel]

So you mean not only did I get my itv digital taken off me but now i find out ive got to pay extra to get a new box? Mes not happy

[David]

plus i thought the bbc thing aint released till november

Well I didnt think it had been released yet but the Argos catalogue lets u buy it and it says its provided by the BBC - unless u cant buy it till November.

[Morals]

So you mean not only did I get my itv digital taken off me but now i find out ive got to pay extra to get a new box? Mes not happy

I thnk you can use your existing box

[David]

I think your right because the BBC digital uses the same frequencys as ITV Digital........

I just read that Channel 5 (or Five as it's now called) has won terrestrial station of the year...



I tell you, that logo must have taken all of 5 minutes to make...
