| It was extremely amateurish but I expected that before turning on as I've seen a lot of the shows on YouTube. I did enjoy it though and I thought some parts were pretty funny. They would have had a tiny budget for it and worked with it reasonably well, it was better than Boots n All for entertainment, just needs a production budget.
Although it's Alex Simmons' project I'm not sure he's the right man to present it and at times I struggled to understand JJB. Coming slightly away from trying to be the footy show wouldn't do any harm either, it was too much like a poor mans version.
Having said all that, I enjoyed it and I'll certainly watch it next time it's on.

Did you actually watch it? The majority of the show was talking about RL.

Reminiscent of Acorn Antiques, but without the humour.

They broadcast on FM though?

| Just watched it - extremely amateurish, which I understand is partly down to budget and production, but was also due in part to the presenters, some of whom were clearly struggling.
What I think will limit the audience, is the overall laddishness; too many borderline homophobic jibes and a general feel of changing room banter; having Chev Walker's Mrs in the studio wasn't really an antidote to that.
All that said, I think there's room for something like this; if they can get some money, a decent main presenter and some better content, it could work.

Just think yourself lucky & leave it that, but then again you might just like it, if you’re into car crash TV.
I watched a bit of it this morning on PS.
