It’s OFFICIALLY the Summer, we’ll have a page up for it in due course.
More contestant shout outs
The Bar’s still really slow, sorry we will see what we can do.
Bother’s Bar favourite and errant genius Gary Monaghan (of Wild Things, Banzai and TV Mayhem fame), he’s looking for contestants for a Rhod Gilbert fronted comedy quiz rehearsal and run through. He’s requiring people for this coming Friday, the following Tuesday and on June 14th. If you’re interested send your details to gary@mono.tv.
In other news it’s Schlag den Henssler next Saturday, and the new series of Raven starts tomorrow, but as it was filmed back to back with the last one we’re not expecting great changes, so you direct your comments to the first series discussion post.
Bother’s Bar’s Game Night returns June 16th, look out for details in due course.
Edit: And of course next weekend it’s also the annual 24 Hour Gameshow Marathon. Do give generously. So much stuff!

Go to it.
Slow
Don’t know why The Bar is slow today, perhaps the host’s server is overloaded (edit: they are indeed working on servers today). So here’s something fast: the first episode of boring-em-up Reflex on BBC1.
Show Discussion: Richard Osman’s House of Games Series 2+
Richard Osman’s House of Games (or ROHOG, as all the cool kids are calling it) begins a second run of shows after a successful 15 episode run last year. The commission for this one is fifty, but whether they’ll show them as one block or several remains to be seen. Being the BBC, they’ll probably show the new series for a few days and then put repeats on.
Lots of new games promised, which is good as the show is not immune from the Laws of Mini-Game Fatigue, Osman or no Osman. Also new prizes by the sounds of things.
Abandoned
It’s a Bank Holiday Weekend! So why not go to a theme park? But probably not this one.
