Is anyone else going to be watching "The Trap" at 9pm tonight on BBC2?  It looks quite interesting.

I won't be able to watch it tonight, but I am recording it for future viewing.  BBC2 is fast becoming my favourite channel.    8-)
Many thanks to all our members, who have made PC Pals such an outstanding success!   :thumb:

Wow!  Very thought provoking.  I need to watch this again - bubblegum television it is not!

As I watched it, I thought, "Thomas Paine would be cheering,  'Stand up for the Rights of Man!' ".

You'll be pleased you recorded it, Simon.

I've just heard some journalists on Radio 5 trying to review this programme.  Only one of them could understand it :) !  So he explained it in words of one syllable to his fellow reviewers and they still couldn't understand it.

I laughed.

So they discussed some sort of programme about "What if we had pet dinosaurs" instead :crazy: .
