Saturday 8:30pm Another celebrity programme featuring every near forgotten, or wannabe plebe who is available for £20 hour. The main premise of the show is two teams of minor stars picked by the captains based on a game sequence. However each team is awarded a huge celeb. for the purposes of the game. The advantage of weight over strength or guile is obvious. A number of trials begin earning the contestants points, points equate to the numbers of team members accrued, the more in the team the more likely the team will be able to tip over the 'big un'. The first team to tip over the ‘big un’ wins. Host: Lily Savage Captains: Peter Andre and Lionel Blair Funniest moment: John Inman dressed as a pussy trying to tip Vanessa Feltz into a cold collation. Rating: Dire – should be popular. (L005ER)
Sunday 7pm A story of simple Northern folk joking their way through a series of murders investigated by amateur sleuth, and hair-dresser, Tristan Treadlightly. The jovial people of Lower Crouch, simpletons all, have their world torn apart by a series of brutal murders, but somehow manage to quickly forget. Hair-Dresser Tristan (Graham Norton) lends weight to these tales of meandering slaughter juxtaposed with jovial crack. The Dales Tales is no lightweight, boasting more deaths than Midsomer Murders and funnier lines than the Sketch Show. Watch out for a brilliant performance by Hugh Lawrie as buck-toothed lethario, and accident-prone land owner, Lord Harbinger of Doom. Romantic interest is provided by Janet Street-Porter as Tilly Lamp, the local bike.I rate this Two Thumbs Up! |
