First and Last

Don't Suppose anyone else is watching this on a Saturday Evening, but, in my opinion Jason Manford does a great job, without his instantaneous repartee, the program would be a bit bland.

Re: First and Last

Awful programme! I feel the same about, The Masked Singer, The Voice and The Greatest Dancer.
To me, current Saturday night television is trash!

Instead, l started to watch a new series, The Stranger on Netflix. That was violent, so l logged on here last night for some normality!

On the whole, I agree. Saturday night is awful on the telly.

I don't mind The Voice sometimes, but probably wouldn't bother with that even, if there was anything more interesting on.

So many of these sort of talent shows have such awful flambuoyant, egotistical judges. At least Tom Jones has mellowed and doesn't keep leaping about and showing off.

I can't watch The Masked Singer mostly because of the awful 'play-to-the-camera' judges.
In fact, it is the judges who put me off most of the talent shows.
Even Skating on Ice is rapidly ging the same way with John Barrowman getting over exciited. You don't get Torvil & Deene shouting and leaping about do you!

All these American judges seem the same. It's all about Me, Me, Me, and not the competitor.

Ditto. Weekend light entertainment on the main TV channels is absolutely dire at the moment.

Most quiz shows are dire. Never watched First & Last.
I do like The Voice though, mainly because Tom is on it & the fact they can't see the singer til they turn.
The Masked Singer is also dire.
