I was on that earlier this year. In fact, it was a 2 parter in Greenwich and had plenty of airtime during both showings. :thumbsup:

It really wasn't worth queuing for the 4 hours mind you. :thumbdown:

You were actually on the show? Nice one.

So come on then, what did you bring in, and what was it worth?! :)

Yeah, it's my mums favourite show so we surprised her for the day (she was mortified that we were selected to be interview in front of the cameras), and took my dads mega old sextant since the show was at the naval college. Unfortunately the fella told us if we'd have been there a couple of years before it'd be worth 5 times what it would today.

The git.

Only worth ~£100. :rofl:

The guy with the fuzzy hair who does oriental stuff is the best. He talks to the people like they're six years old and he sets up quizzical traps and laughs at them when they fall into them. Top stuff. :thumbup:

What a nice idea for your mum. :)

I remember seeing the American version when some lad brought in what looked like a scabby old horse blanket, and it turned out it was some important Native American relic, and it was worth $500,000.

Last night was Come Dine With Me, from Sunderland. Absolute class!!

I looked a right tit on the train last night (along with a few thousand others, no doubt) when I opened the free evening paper and out blasted "Book 'em Danno" followed by the theme tune. I wonder how much it cost them to embed those musical chip thingys?

How long before your power goes out and your dog blows away?

Power still on. If it goes out I get to go home which is a good thing. Dog is firmly inside. One cat went out this morning but came back in pretty sharpish.
Rain really coming down now.

We would have watched Come Dine With Me if it had not been a repeat:curse:

Tried Hawaii 50, I'll not bother with it again.

Anyone know what night Dinner Party in My Living Room is on? We watched it once and now can't remember when it's on...

If I watch American tv programmes, I quite like Little People Big World.

just drawing a pic and watching Extreme Makeover Home Edition.

Tip - don't watch that unless you want a tear blobbed on something that shouldn't get wet :frown:
