Ive never watched any of the previous series but i started to watch the latest series because i like Dara and Frankie, its been a bit hit and miss for me, the bald guy and russel howard make me cringe with their bad jokes, i love Frankie though hes hilarious.

I think that without Frankie, this show would have been put to bed some time ago. It's a really tired and cheap format that has been done bigger and better elsewhere. But, I'm not sure my week would be as good without an injection of venom from Frankie Boyle. :)

Frankie is definitely the winner.

"So you'll be back will you, Joker? Somehow, I don't think so."

"Is it a bird, is it a plane? All I know is it's heading towards the World Trade Center."

"Political correctness is a politically correct term in itself. Not many people know this, but it used to be called 'spastic gay talk'."

And my personal fave from the series:

"There is a vegetarian option - you can **** off." :laugh:

Ha, yeah, those two from yesterday were a bit wrong but i couldn't help but laugh. Loved the vegetarian one as well and his constant Kerry Katona digs.

It's basically an exact amalgamation of Whose Line Is It Anyway and Have I Got News For You. IMO the last series were some of the funniest episodes I have seen of any TV show ever, but the new series hasn't been the best. Frankie keeps reusing his old jokes from previous series' and the guests this week were rubbish. Bring back Michael McIntyre permanently I say.

Yeah Michael McIntyre was a good guest. I was also watching some old episodes on Dave and i would like to see Rory Bremner or Al Murray on the show again.

frankie is GOD, he's just hillarious, he's my hero.

You guys should see the "too hot for tv" dvd, the things that werent allowed to be broadcast are on it, like the queen killing diana and other hardcore things, it nearly made me cry with laughter. Also the last ep of each series is the best bits + things that werent allowed to be shown.

I hate the black woman guest, all she does is nigerian accent jokes, she's not funny but she must have been on about 6 times:( I dont like al murray he's just a loud mouth and not really funny tbh.

+1 "Too Hot for TV" is probably the the funniest DVD I have ever seen

    • If built properly, swapping out the backend should be an easy task, but as the article points out, it's just Apple not wanting to do this.
    • Microsoft's new Xbox Shutdown change promises massive power efficiency gains by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft has been delivering a lot of changes for Xbox Insiders to test in recent weeks, and today, another wave of changes aimed at consoles was announced. The latest drop is testing features that let users find mutual friends easier, customize their UI, and streamline wishlisting. When looking at an Xbox friend's profile, an option will appear to see mutual friends, perhaps to get a refresher on how you know that person. This will depend on the privacy settings. The same applies to when checking the profile of a person who is not in the friends list, offering a quick way to find out if this is a known connection. Next, Microsoft is giving the option to change how the 'Home' and 'Games & Apps' sections show off available games. There is a new poster style that users can enable for an "immersive library experience." "We’ve also made personalization settings easier to navigate and customize by separating Home and My Games & apps into separate sections," adds the company. "And to make personalization even more accessible, we’ve added new shortcuts throughout menus, so you can quickly jump in and tailor your XBOX experience the way you want." Moreover, heading to the store page of an unreleased game will now offer players the option to wishlist directly from the game card. Lastly, Microsoft is making a change to Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S consoles that are in Sleep mode, making them use the more energy-saving 'Shutdown' mode instead automatically. The company says this can increase power savings by up to 20 times without impacting "performance, gameplay, or your ability to receive system, games or apps updates overnight." The only down side seems to be a longer startup time that can take up to 45 seconds. The setting was originally introduced in 2023, and this is only the latest update to it. The power option can be changed from the console settings at any time. This Xbox Insider update is rolling out today to select members of the program. As usual, Microsoft aims to bring it to more Insiders over time before they reach all Xbox owners. Head here to find out how to join the Xbox Insider Program to get a chance to test these features and upcoming ones on both consoles and PC.
    • 2 was a fun game but felt a bit shallow, like not enough there. I hope this expansion fixes that.
    • I haven't paid for windows since windows 8. So I guess I would be happy to pay for a new version if it meant seeing fewer adverts (none) or product pushes. But that applies to _any_ service or OS.
