".....these pictures were taken by a man who had been on a bus, heading to a job interview, the day Baghdad-style violence, came to South London....Paul Davis, ITV NEWSSPEAK"

*promote the not-so-subtle programming of the complicit cabal of so-called, British newscasters.

The full programme was intensely annoying, full of attention-seeking celebrities desperately mugging for laughs and Cox demonstrating a curious difficulty with understanding sarcasm. The science was definitely secondary to the mocking celebrities who were busy pretending to be stupid for the sake of a little camera-time, which prevented the physics from really coming across.


I watched this earlier and it's pretty fucking dreadful. Cox's lecture is interesting but this obsession with celebrities again - save it for ITV please.

At first I thought this was a spoof, but its actually the real broadcast. Heres an article:
Daily Telegraph

I believe this is the footage they meant to use:

I've tried to avoid watching it as anything on ITV1 is a pile of tosh. Here instead of seeing Penn and Teller perform they judge magic and variety acts?? - <headslap>.
Granted this guy was entertaining but the crux of the show is handled with them looking at a piece of paper to decide if they were fooled? More than lame.

So let me get this straight, you've avoided watching it intentionally because you think it's crap. You watch one clip, decide that the whole show is exactly like that one clip, and confirm your suspicions that the show is crap.
Dude.
Anyway, the show is good, and i normally hate crap like this.

Because just watching one clip for a show like this is probably enough to generalise. This is fucking ITV, not some BBC4 documentary about Goya for cripes sake.
You see ITV1 has a track record of commissioning and broadcasting low grade material. Yet their prime-time major Saturday night hits e.g X-Factor, BGT are obviously way more popular and draw decent audiences. Their current line-up is inferior and has generally been slated. They've even got a UK version of The Marriage Ref. I've not seen that either but I'm happy to believe it's utter shite as well.
Ross looks uncomfortable here, with rather strange facial furniture, and I don't blame him. This job is dangerously reminiscent of what Angus Deayton used to do post-HIGNFY.
I recall P&T back in the day when they had a show and it was great. This derivative talent show is not.

?!?! Does that change anything re: my criticism?
As long as you think ITV comes out with shit and avoid watching everything on ITV because you think everything is shit, you'll always think everything on ITV will be shit including this show which isn't bad.
What do i care, watch what you want! You think it's crap, you haven't seen it, fine, it's crap.
Btw, i think the reason ross did this was because penn and teller have a huge international following, he's not stupid. Except when it comes to facial hair.


Fucks sake Danny, stop getting so upset. It's just a tv show. Glad you agree about the hair.

People do manage to fool them sometimes and get to go on stage in Vegas. Penn and Teller also sometimes tell everyone how a trick is done. I think that they decide if it's something unique or not. This one was something that they seemed to think was very clever, so they didn't explain it.

They also have Penn and Teller perform a trick at the end of each show. I prefer the shows with just Penn and Teller doing magic, but this series still blows away "The Magicians" on BBC One. That was a terrible magic show with B-list celebrities as magicians/assistants that was aired shortly after the first Fool Us on ITV in January.

What about those who don't use Firefox?

You are to be sent to the re-education camps...

Why? I prefer Mozilla's SeaMonkey web browser.

Why? WHY!? There is no reason to my silliness . Is sea monkey not compatible with firefox addons then?

Not directly. Addons need to support SM2.

Try this addon instead and then follow the instructions on the video as usual
https://addons.mozilla.org/af/seamonkey/addon/modify-headers/

Ah thanks. I just realized this is for foreign people who want American videos. Oops.

If you add 212.69.208.1 instead of the number suggested in the video then I have been lead to beleive that you can watch videos for the UK, it doesn't work for the bbc but it should work with youtube and the ITV player.


Rats. I want BBC.

sadly doesn't work for http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcone/watchlive/


Alas it only works for non americans trying to watch american shows. although if you add 212.69.208.1 apparently it allows you to watch ITV player (good if you want to watch champions league football).

What a depressing thing it would be to chart the decline of the ITV drama from the 90s to today.

Dare I say - "Orange and Teal"


There is an ancient adage.

Know, dare will, and keep silent.

Oh what the heck, go ahead and say it.

I guess you already did.

Thanks.

James Corden is a ridiculously overrated "comedian". I find him annoyingly unfunny and I'm surprised more people aren't embarrassed on his behalf.

Thing is, alot of tv people seem to love him and maybe as someone who's a bit older now, I simply don't have the capacity to appreciate his brilliance. Still you compare him to genuine talents like Jimmy Carr, Bill Bailey, David Mitchell etc and I think you'll find him out of his depth.

It's interesting that despite being flavour of the month he has only secured the inevitable panel show on Sky and not the BBC or ITV. Maybe even they saw that he's not everything they thought he was.

And yes, Stewart is acting strangely here or at least that's what the clip suggests.
