Sing along if you know the words:
If it feels like I’m phoning it this week (more so than usual) it’s because I’m sort of on holiday this week. But don’t fret! I’m hoping for another EXCITING recording report before the week is out. So.

I admit it, I did indeed sing along – and have been known to randomly sing this little ditty when I’m bored.
My fave will always be “More tea, vicar”

DOWN YOU HARLET!!!!
Why don’t they bring back Big Breakfast – it always made me late for work!

Can I just say how much I hate networks? How is it possible a printer can work when plugged into a router but it doesn’t work if you plug it via a hard wire into your laptop?
So glad the Big Breakfast was around long before the phone-in scandals. Nowadays it would be “Don’t phone, it’s just for fun – and if you do phone you may be charged and your call won’t be registered blahdy blahdy blah”, and can’t think when I last saw a phone in competition on a TV show that wasn’t just to phone in the blatantly obvious answer!
I had a letter read on air during summer 2000… and have been trying to get a hold of the clip ever since! Is it true ITV studios owns the rights/tapes now? I should have asked someone when I was at Granada in 09…
Interesting… looked this up on Wikipedia but apparently Planet24 was sold to Carlton, but the Big Breakfast format was retained by a spinoff company from the original owners. So the recordings could well be at ITV if they bothered to keep them in the first place.
I remember someone trying to get some footage a few years ago and they wanted something like £150 for a couple of minutes of footage.
Also to add to my last point but it’s ridiculous now with new and improved digital TV that a competition like above could no longer take place as the 21st century has added a couple of seconds to the time taken for pictures to be transmitted.
That should read ‘my letter’ rather. Apparently a friend caught it on air.
I’d also be intrigued to know who owns this, as I’m still owed a little cash for some work I did for an OB item in Spain. It serves me right to agree to it in a hotel bar, but that’s by the by.
I was out tonight but caught Millionaire Live on ITV+1 earlier. I STILL see nothing has been learned from the Mother’s Day Special. Wasting ten minutes on something irrelevant to the show (the Childs Play bit) and Joe Calzaghe being once again the third celebrity to be short changed with the 75 minute timeslot. I also notice the question difficulty dropped tonight. Perhaps they wanted to boost the viewer prize pool or they had to since 14 year olds were on the show.
I heard Chris mention there will be a weekend of Millionaire specials next month. Perhaps they will allow the third celebrity on the first show to be carried over to the next one.
Also, since when 2waytraffic became Victory Television?
Yup, it’s all gone a bit “lifestyle” hasn’t it? Tarrant keeps thinking he has to shout into my home directly rather than use that microphone device he’s wearing.
What’s worse with the timing is that they still feel the need to repeat the rules even though they’re in a ‘rush’
I notice the filth on DS are having shots at the kids FFS. Just because daddy and/or mummy are famous doesn’t mean they pack their kids off to fee paying schools or spoil them. Or that they have a PS3.
It’s a shame how the contestants go to pieces at the £75,000 level and above.
The home viewer contest winner:
If I had to give away a prize to the kids I wouldn’t have chosen a PS3 since it was 14 year olds getting ready for GCSEs. A notebook at the same value would be more suitable.
I’m not fussed by the celebrities children. Many folks don’t know that the show has never had people under 16 on the show before.
