Day time TV

[BensGrandad]

I never watch daytime TV as the grandchildren usually have CBeeBies on but brother in law is staying with us and watching normal TV and what a load of rubbish Dickinsons real deal, and Houses under the Hammer what a load of rubbish.

Hate to say it but some daytime shows are horribly addictive. Like Bargain Hunt. Like Countdown. Like Tipping Point. Er, apparently...

 

[Tricky Dicky]

Kojaks on at 5, a series ahead of its' time.

I try not to have it on too much, but I'm recovering from cancer and major surgery and been told to take it easy.

Truly awful stuff. I had a day off sick for the first time in years last week and it was horrendous. I think I ended up with Sky news on pretty much all day.
It wasn't great when I was off sick as a kid though with things like 'How we used to live' and Watch but at least we had Rainbow at 12:05 and then House Party at 2ish before mum was due to come home from work and I had to stop running around the house naked.

I think Mr Tumble and Balamory would win hands down.

I suppose it keeps you away from Football Rumours for a bit so can't be all bad

Xhamster on c5 is pretty good

You cant beat a bit of homes under the hammer! and e4 is the place for day time TV ...such gems as Rules of engagement and Melissa and Joey!

The Professionals still goes on

Yes, why on earth would anyone watch countdown ?

I saw this for the first time recently (I was to young for it first time around) and it's absolutely fantastic TV.

Been there, done that. It was daytime TV that forced me to be serious about returning to work.

With all due respect milord, that is absolute nonsense! That flat back four of Starsky, Hutch, Cagney, Lacey was a classic of its time.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

I like Homes under the hammer.

 

[Medwayseagull]

The world athletics have been pretty entertaining - even the debates about drug cheats.

Judge Rinder

 

[Meade's Ball]

Judge Rinder is amusing. And when I'm off work I try and spot which episodes of Magnum might be on ITV4.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

IPlayer is also good. I've been catching up on New Tricks (having been away at football matches for the last two Tuesdays) and Big Ocean live.

Bowel cancer is apparently sorted, but kidney failure and dialysis 5 times a week means work will realistically have to be something I can do from home. I don't know what that will be yet, but I need to start thinking about it soon.

Though its pretty hard to track down which day or time or channel it's on, 'Four Rooms' is always worth a watch.
