Grand Central Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Have 'Viking River Cruises' wasted ALL their money. The ubiquitous 'sponsoring drama on ITV' voiceover at every ad break during an episode of Poirot. And it has gone unheard. Even the ad break existing. And still some don't twig it's not BBC.

spinkox Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Too bad I'll still be at speedway at that time. All good, though. It seems to be repeated several times during the week. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A ORLOV Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Too bad I'll still be at speedway at that time. All good, though. Last weeks episode was shown at 6pm saturday, and it was good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backless Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 A fun show, a lighthearted look at the sport, a decent explanation of the skills involved in riding & how different they are to other disciplines, short highlights of Lakeside v Poole, a mention of Chris Holder's black & white helmet colour without hysterics and all in front of a motorbike-interested audience. Job done, I'd suggest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 If only there was some sort of recording device that could be used to record pictures as well as sound … Hasn't somebody - not Logie `Baird - invented a video recorder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Stadia Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 If only there was some sort of recording device that could be used to record pictures as well as sound … Actually, it's not so easy these days. I have Virgin Media, but no recording facility. I have a DVD player, but no recording facility. I still have a Video recorder hooked up, but rarely used. And Virgin Media does have their version of I-player, but only the main channels, which, yes includes this programme, as it is ITV. So, once again, your 'snipe' doesn't totally fit....but keep trying, you will get there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backless Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 Your constant stalking & monitoring of my comments is somewhat unnerving, but I guess it's an alternative to making a contribution - and one that you seem to have embraced wholeheartedly. Very true however, it ISN'T as easy these days - if you buy a range of equipment that doesn't record, it will make recording somewhat awkward. Indeed, although I have a TV in the kitchen, the fridge nearby has proven to be very stubborn when it comes to recording the omnibus edition of Eastenders. Maybe now I have an inkling as to what that might be so. So, your invaluable contribution is to highlight to your fellow bobble hat wearers that in order to record something, it will be necessary - perhaps even essential to purchase a device capable of recording. It comes as no surprise that a world of Sky +, PVR's, TiVo, HDD recorders DVD & Blu-ray recorders & a whole host of other recording devices have passed you by.

Guest Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 ...constant stalking & monitoring of my comments is somewhat unnerving, I can appreciate how you feel in that regard. I also seem to be closely watched on what I Post on some forums. But it's also good to know that our comments are at least being read and we have admirers of our words?

Backless Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 The only reassurance is that, as far as I'm aware, the Boston Strangler would have been much easily detected if he had been accompanied by the rustle of Wilfsport nylon & the bobble on his hat could have been seen, protruding from the bushes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't take it seriously. At the end of the day all it's just playing about computers trying to emphasise our point of view over another person. Some we win, some we lose. It's a matter of sticking to the debate and not getting personal about things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betamax - the Speedway bobble hat wearer's best friend. I suppose Backless and the way I see it, I am acting as a 'Policeman' of the forum. Most of your comments and fair play, you may have posted one or possibly two constructive comments. The rest have been out to ridicule and put down the posters comments, including mine in the past, as well as the present. So if I make you feel nervous, I make no apology. Like a Policeman would not apologise for making a criminal feel nervous. Edited July 21, 2013 by Ray Stadia 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus Christ Almighty, the Care in the Community Programme has a lot to answer for over the years - I bet you whistle like George Dixon when you're doing it too.

Backless Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 On the subject at the top of the page, as there would appear to have been a single comment made regarding the content of the programme, think of my interaction with the clinically bonkers as merely an extra bit of time filling whilst awaiting a second comment. With ITV4 being available on every TV set still receiving a picture, it might have been expected at least one other comment on the content by now - maybe speedway fans are still grappling with the Digital switchover?

Or just couldnt give a rubbish? Pointless bit of filler on a pretty pointless channel. Better ways to fill 30 minutes or however long it lasted. Once you've seen one presenter learn to ride a speedway bike you've seen them all. No doubt they either raced a professional but only for 2 laps vs their 4 of they filmed someone competent and claimed it was the guy learning.
