Brucie’s got an album coming out and he will be appearing on QVC UK to sell it on Monday. (9am and 4pm)
Also it’s an X Factor DOUBLE elimination this week! Double the chance to pick an eliminee, FXF managers.
Amazing
Right, this is too good an opportunity to pass up. The big £2,500 box canvas thing is too much, but YES INDEED we will have some £15 Paul Ross jigsaw action.
And I will have not just one, but TWO to give away – one in a website competition and one in a Twitter competition.
- About 300 pieces!
- Why not laminate it and then put it in your bathroom and have Paul’s welcoming beaming face stare upon you as you bath or shower?
- Or why not put it together then punch it violently apart in an allusion of that time on Endurance UK he slapped the actor and novelist Peter Cocks in the face one too many times and got beaten up?
- Why not consider that whilst we’re giving this away for ironic value, they’ve just made about £30 out of us?
Opportunities to win will be coming soon, so stay tuned.

If the official Twitter is happy enough to advertise it, I don’t see any harm in linking to it myself – episode two of Million Dollar Mind Game, the US take on the famous Russian What? Where? When? format with amateur American football player Vernon Kay.

Chris M Dickson of the parish pretty much sums up what I think of it right here. It’s a pity ABC didn’t have the confidence in it, but I’m pleased it is actually seeing the light of day. Although having seen the end of episode one, they could do with drawing out the voting a bit less when they take the money.
Happy Noel Day!
Happy birthday to Deal or No Deal, six years old today.
Yes it is a game of luck, but no it’s not a game about luck. That is why it has been successful.
They’re doing Bankenstein’s monsters this week, but forget the fact they are dressing up, Noel puts on a silly voice occasionally.
Also: we’ve now watched Million Dollar Mind Game. I liked it.
An open letter to Objective
Dear Andrew O’ Connor or whoever,
Please send us the entire soundtrack of The Cube and then I promise never to suggest we are bored of you playing SODDING, SODDING, SODDING BARRIER every week ever again.
Love you!

Show Discussion: The Cube Series Four
7pm, ITV1
The fourth series of The Cube begins this evening featuring brand new games but the same old cube. It seems the show has been successful enough that it’s now being parodied quite regularly, not only in Shooting Stars, but The Impressions Show on BBC1 did a take off of it last week as well.
It will be especially interesting to see the numbers – it floundered a bit in the Spring when stuck on its own in the schedules but as a lead in to The X Factor last year it was getting 5-6 million. Being scheduled around The X Factor is no guarantee of success as Holding Out For a Hero has shown, and not only is Countryfile currently performing very well but it will also have Strictly to contend with.
