I’m not a massive TV fan, but there are a few programmes that I have series linked at the moment. GBBO is one (obviously), and here are a few other TV programmes I love right now. If you’ve never watched Hunted before, a quick breakdown of what it’s all about. A group of ten members […]

5 Things I’m Loving On TV
There was a time, many years ago, when this blog post would’ve been called ‘5 Sexy Cocktail Bars I’ve Visited’, or, more likely, ‘5 Films I’ve Seen at the Cinema’, but if you’re anything like me, life revolves around the TV more than perhaps you’d like. Having said that, there are some great TV […]
How do YOU watch TV?
I’m not sure if I have already mentioned this on the blog or not, but recently I was debating whether to renew my TV licence or not. My licence expired two weeks before I left my last house and because they don’t do short-term licences (God bless them), I had to decide whether […]
When TV Ads Annoy The Bejesus Out of Me
Do you ever watch TV and find yourself getting annoyed by TV ads? If so, you’re not alone. I find that the older I get, the more I get annoyed by inconsequential, unimportant things … like TV ads. This blog post was prompted by one ad in particular. The Seven Seas ad […]
Our Typical Saturday
I wrote earlier this week about how I’m a little stressed post-holiday (yes, yes, poor Kate with her fancy Mark Warner holiday to Rhodes!) … Ben’s going back to Uni and we’re in the midst of two days of the 11+ test for Dexter. TWO! So I thought I’d just look forward to the […]
A Cautionary Tale
It was a day like any other day … a typical Thursday. When I got out of bed that morning I had no idea what would end up happening that night. This is a cautionary tale and one that I feel I need to share with my readers because trust me, if this […]
Dear Kirstie Allsopp … Life Isn’t Black & White
Image credit: Daily Telegraph I don’t usually jump on the media bandwagon and offer my thoughts on what to random ‘celebrities’ are waffling on about. Mainly because no-one’s remotely interested in what I have to say (fair point). But I just thought my point of view might be interesting on this occasion. A […]
The Day I Nearly Appeared on MTV’s Catfish
For those of you who follow my inane drivel on Twitter, you may have noticed me live tweet the show Catfish every Monday at 9pm for a few months. My friends Laura, Mary and I spent 60 minutes every week talking about this show. For those of you who don’t know what […]
So Would You Dump Me Now?
I have a confession to make. I have a real penchant for trash TV. No amount of wearing intelligent looking glasses can disguise this fact. But very occasionally, along comes a programme that even I find too tasteless to watch. (Granted, I will pretty much watch anything.) The last time I saw anything this bad […]
Bagpuss Vs. The Red Hand Gang
I recently wrote about some of my favourite childhood programmes. Debate raged (well, I had three emails) about programmes I had missed off the list and so today, I am here to address this serious issue. Today, in a Top Trumps stylee, I’m going to see who would kick who’s arse … let the battle […]
