a bit late, but I've just realised - it's on in less than an hour...

Most sarcastic show on the box,excellent

A consistently funny show over 20 years. The move to guest presenters was genius that really payed off. Looking forward to the new series.

Heads Up...

The News Quiz is back this Friday at 6:30pm (repeated Saturday 12:30pm) on Radio 4.

I can't find any info on the next series of HIGNFY, but it usually returns shortly after the News Quiz. Perhaps next Friday (Oct 3)?

I hope so it's one of the best shows made in recent times in my opinion.

Tom Baker presents. Should be good this. Cetainly better than Fern Britton.

Has Tom Got News For You
Yes, it’s true. Having already provided a legendary appearance on Have I Got News For You? as a panelist back in 1998, Tom “Ahhhhhhhhhhhh" Baker will be the the guest presenter for the Friday 31 October edition. Will any of the panelist manage to get a word in edgeways? Not that we care. We could listen to the wit and wisdom (aka, bizarre ramblings) of Tom Baker all night.

Pleased to see it back on the air. Does anyone else get slightly distracted by Jodie Marsh’s bountiful fake bosom just behind the anchor?

Hi,

Who else watches the uncut extended versions, on BBC2 on Saturday nights, rather than the usual 30-minute versions that air on Friday nights? I think I prefer the longer version, with all the extra footage. It just seems to work better in this extended cut.

I don't watch the extended version as a rule. It's just started and I'm here on the PC in the kitchen.

All the best

Thought he was superb, exactly what I expected.

And from the look of Krish's video looks like he entertained the audience brilliantly outside of the standard TV broadcast.

PoochJD · 02-11-2008, 7:35 PM

Hi,

I actually found him to be really disappointing!

Watched the Extended Saturday night repeat, and just found him acting like he didn't really know what he was doing.

I'm sure Mr Baker's a great guy, and an intelligent one, but other than a couple of jokes early-on in the episode, this was a real disappointment.

Pooch

krish · 03-11-2008, 12:42 AM

I wonder if with his current profile, a certain elderly gent famous for playing a waiter from Barcelona is being lined up as a guest presenter this series?

Btw Bri ... did you wonder if Tom was going to elaborate further on his link to Dawkins?

I missed that bit or was it in the extended version? I've got that version recorded but haven't watched it yet.

Cheers

Don't worry we'll get Fern back just for you.

I only watched the extended version, so perhaps was just in that ... good enough to have been kept in the 30 min version

andytabor · 03-11-2008, 2:14 PM

Anyone see the bill oddie clip on it? I think he revealed just how much of a miserable old git he is...

I'll give that version a watch as well but not just yet but it you've got me going over what he might've said.

He was on 'The Wright Stuff' the other day and was really rude, blunt and seemed annoyed at Matthew Wright's tongue in cheek comments to some news stories.
