Dan Walker making patronising comments when his new career has flopped.
Just wants his old job back.

I miss topless darts and Woolworths, surprisingly of the two I liked Woolies better.

Haven’t watched it since Sam Leitch left.

An unsung, largely forgotten presenter and journalist and one of the best. Really knew his stuff. Sadly died in his early 50s.

Can you expand? Not sure I understand the bounce or comment. “Ticking boxes?”

Well it’s not Albion related if we are talking boxes

Yes. There’s definitely room for a football cookery show with regular slots covering Arsene Wenger’s culinary corner (flag) and Warren Aspinall’s best breakfast cafes.

Given up on it, the format is now Football “The One Show” Focus and I also avoid The One Show like the plague. Both programmes bland, giggly and boring to me.

Who are they catering to?

Football is fast becoming pretty bland nowadays, so maybe it's just mirroring its subject matter?

I take it you haven’t watched the current model, takes bland to a much much higher level. Unless of course you enjoy an Arsenal, City, Liverpool wankfest and boring interviews with players I have no interest in and then women’s football half hour to finish up with. Clearly appeals to people though and is not targeted at me

If the touted wages of 1.5 million pa on Channel 5 are correct I could do with a flopped career please

Maybe. I just don't remember FF ever being anything other than extraordinarily bland

Be very afraid Noni Madueke, the Kelly Somers sit-down interview is FF equivalent of The Kiss Of Death. Just ask Evan
