Saturday, 7:15pm (UK) 8:15 (CET),
Pro Sieben and naughty internet streaming

Yo, what are you doing this evening? Not much these days I bet! So why not join us as two celebs battle it out for €100,000 in an empty studio across fifteen mystery games, one of which will be Blamieren oder Kassieren, live on German television?

As ever we will have our Discord open for live chat and quizzing and gossip and stuff. Remember it’s a privilege not a right so behave yourselves. To avoid cutting out, we advise turning Auto-sensitivity off and setting it to -85dB or so in your settings.

THIS EPISODE! It’s pop star Stefanie Hertel vs influenser Cathy Hummels, with music from Ria Garvey X VIZE and Gentleman!

The link to the Youtube commentary stream will be live here from 7:15pm until end of broadcast.

This stream is commentary only. You will need to have a naughty stream running at the same time for the visuals. We are likely to be about 15-20 seconds behind the visual stream (and about a full minute behind if you’re watching an actual satellite feed), sorry.

The Opera VPN has apparently stopped being useful for SdS. Bother’s Bar recommends shelling out for a proper VPN service. Bother’s Bar uses ExpressVPN, other VPN services are available. Matt Clemson recommends Windscribe as a free alternative. We cannot take responsibility for anything you do to your system, so be careful and use some common sense.

To watch it would be useful to sign up for ProSieben’s catch-up service – it’s pretty simple to work out, don’t click the box if you don’t want e-mail messages. You will need to put in a proper e-mail because it will send you a confirmation. 

If anyone knows of any relatively safe livestreams, do feel free to share.

Out Friday! Although only with fourteen tracks, so presumably they’re rolling the beds and DER-DER-DER-DER-DER-DER-DER-DER-DER-DERRRR bits into one track. Includes TWO unreleased theme mixes of the theme tune, perhaps one will be the one from the original soundtrack release with Chris Tarrant but replaced with quotes by Jeremy Clarkson, who knows.

In other news it’s Schlag den Star on Saturday night! Do come and join us for that.

Edit: Crikey, is that it? The original fully-featured one is going for £75 on eBay right now, if you’d prefer.

• Sad news about the passing of singer, comic and entertainer Des O’ Connor, in the gameshow world he most famously hosted Take Your Pick and Countdown, we also remember him for hosting mid-90s talent contest with a big jackpot Pot of Gold.
• I’m a Celeb starts its new run shooting in Wales tonight, where the weather the last few days has been, well, extremely wet. Now I think they’ve got some of the best creatives in the business so I would hope that they’ve predicted and figured everything out – I’m extremely excited to see how it plays out in a castle setting, but the celebs are only going to let themselves get so miserable before walking out surely.
• Winning Combination starts on ITV tomorrow at 3pm, we’ll have a Show Discussion post going up tomorrow morning.
• The Wheel looks like it has quite the set.

According to the records, this is the 25th BBPB! Incredible.

This came out yesterday on most of the major digital platforms, but is it any good? It features 1,500 questions and everyone’s favourite TV host Lucky McCoy!

You can play at home in pass the pad capacity, or online against other players, or set up a stream where people can answer in the chat.

It’s published by Ubisoft of Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune fame, but it’s been developed by Snap Finger Click of It’s Quiz Time fame. They’ve not bothered localising the title so good luck in finding it unless you know what you’re looking for. And do you know what? It’s OK?

They are mainly looking for people from the North West, for COVID reasons presumably, but anyone can apply. Filming in January.
