That’s copyright me now, thanks.
- The Catchphrase app has been completely rebuilt. It now features a new one-player structure (which is fine) and unlockable theme packs, and doesn’t let you see the possible words to pick from unless you buzz in, which is fine, except there’s no actual penalty for just leaving it. More irritatingly, if you paid the 69p for it last year you now get ads, and I’m not sure if you actually get any new catchphrases thrown in for free. Poor form. Blimey it’s £1.49 now. (here’s the Android link) I would still suggest that it’s a fun game though, so if you didn’t buy it last year…
- Timeline is now out on Android, and I thought the iOS version was rather good fun, and great value at free.
In other news it sounds like GSN in the US have picked up The Chase for a third series (surely it’s time for The Beast to guest on Letterman) and intriguingly and slightly bafflingly The Line, the pilot of which was floating round a few years ago and we discussed here back in the good old Endemol Joe days (although the video no longer works I’m afraid). There are some other shows currently being looked at, of which The Tunnel is probably the most appealing to the BB audience.
