Embarrassing.

[QUOTE 4670423, member: 9609"]I'm embarrassed for you knowing what he was watching.

Can we have some clues to what this thread is about ?[/QUOTE]
Some reality TV show with people who have little experience doing things on skis doing things on skis*. It usually results in people getting injured, which is why I had heard of it.

*I think anyway, I have only seen the resultant injuries being reported

It's a light entertainment programme broadcast by the Independent Television network m'lud

Going on last nights fiasco, very light.

I think my learned friend may be confusing its co-production by subsidiaries of the independent television network and Wire and Plastic Products with its broadcast by the fourth television channel, m'lud.

[QUOTE 4672109, member: 43827"]I watched the first half hour of the first show but just couldn't put up with Davina McCall's constant gurning and the overblown enthusiasm and bonhomie of her and the celebrities.

I doubt whether I'll watch it again, except perhaps for the final to see how much improvement was made by novices.[/QUOTE]
Oh fark, does she do the presenting? Dearie dearie me.

The doper? What was he on?

Probably EPO, human growth hormone, testosterone, steroids ...

The film was on the Bike channel.

He came across as quite a nice man and the doping issue was discussed, but it was the usual "everybody was doing it so there wasn't any choice if you wanted to be successful" line. He claimed to have ridden the last 5 or 6 years of his career 'clean'.

A damning indictment if I ever heard one.

I'm sure he is a nice chap. A doper but otherwise a fine sort.
