I'm the one who is glad that QI is back.

Sorry can't stand either! Quite partial to a bit of Ant n Dec's takeaway but mostly glad that Top Gear is back.

That makes two of us, midget! If I wasn't already (very happily) married and Stephen Fry wasn't (very happily) gay, then I think I'd be his stalker, but that's quite a lot of ifs. I just love him. The 'Stephen Fry Night' on Auntie Beeb a couple of weekends ago was just bliss. Back to blondie's question, we have been watching X Factor lately, but I'm not so keen once the open auditions have finished and all the misfits and deluded fools have been sent packing. Saturday night tv is pants, especially now that there will be no more series of Doctor Who. Maybe we should watch Robin Hood - is it any good?

Often don't see either as on the way back from football or rugby matches via a hostelry sometimes!

However if we do make it back the others are watching X Factor more often than not.

I have voted X factor because some of the prima donna's during the auditions were truly worth a laugh !

Dancing an me just don't go together. I hate it !

the audition stage is the best bit of it. Laughing at the deluded people who appear. Now its got down to those with 'talent' its all a bit boring.

Would much rather spend an hour watching people dance and wishing i could do that

For me the only decent thing/programme/person on TV at the moment is Heston Blumenthal. OK so I check out Sky's newsheadlines and Bloomberg but otherwise I simply can't find anything worth watching.

As for the programs like Come Dancing, X Factor, etc. they make me feel sick

As for Vonny's Ant and Dec, I spend half my life trying to end Ants' lives and isn't Dec some sort of WoodenTop surface in the modern with-it garden?

Having more money doesn't make you happier. I have 50 million dollars
but I'm just as happy as when I had 48 million.

I wonder if you liking for strictly could be similar to the fiance's tolerance of it? (when Lilia appears in very tiny glittery costumes)
