A couple of lovely close-ups on CF tonight; Matt looked just gorgeous and he got a proper treat on that day and we got interesting verdicts from the Baker boy - first, ‘that's lovely!’; second, ‘that's amazing!’ and finally ‘it's great, absolutely brilliant!’.:D:D:D
Matt said the highlight of Gymnastics Euro Championships will be on next weekend on BBC1 at 1.25pm. He mentioned the full schedule but I couldn’t manage to listen all. Think there will be one on 26 May on BBC 2 and another on 6 June if I heard it correctly. Better check out the FBB’s tweets or log on to BBC websites.
Will he fly back tonight or on tomorrow morning…don’t think he tweets again as he’s done quite a lot today already. Seems no CF filming on last Friday which means we probably miss him on CF in next two weeks.
A very good cf tonight, the guy collecting antlers is completely barking mad, 100's of antler in his house, nearly taking matt head off a couple of times. matt laughing so much about it, and him holding up the antlers in a interesting postion, naught boy:D and he had food to eat as well,looked gawgus in his sports top with zip, lovely close ups with stubble.:D
Lovely little lambs on adams farm, pleased that he passed the tb test with his cows.
No sightings of matt on gymnastic, but plenty of happy commentating from matt, especially when the British girl won her 2 bronze medals. lots of tweet from him today and was doing it while commentating
Cass great that the wheelchair been collected and looks good
Matt was fab on CF and a special minute of gawgusness when he was eating the venison, looking as hot as the meat in his tight lycra top. And I managed to watch most of the gymnastics earlier and listen to the mellifluous tones of El Presidente as he pronounced lots of difficult names with ease and got a bit excited once or twice.
'Fraid too tired to say much else...thank goodness, everyone says.....and so I'll just CCM to one and all. :sleep: xx

Why assume there was no Countryfile filming this weekend? There might not have been but until we see the listings we won't know. Last time he covered the European gymnastics he filmed Countryfile on the Friday before...
It's not like Brussels is so far away that Matt would have had to travel there on Friday to acclimitise. I'm not even sure he'd fly - its probably easier for him to Eurostar there and that would only be just over 2 hours from London .
Morning. 5.6m for CountryFile last night. That's up half a million on last week - not surprising as Matt is back:)
I'm out to dinner tonight so won't be able to see TT live. I'm recording it of course but don't tell Matt, as I'm hoping he'll take the occasion to wear a waistcoat:)

Well i'm taking OH out for his birthday dinner tonight also, so I'm also recording TT. Lets hope he doesn't know and feels like indulging in a waistcoat.
I've watched last nights CF 4 times now, well the Matt bits!
He does look fabulous in his very tight top and the anticipation of eating is just hilarious! I love the little bounce he does while waiting for the plating up of the venison fillet. There was also some very nice closeups of face & hands.
Happy Birthday to your OH, GJD. Looks like the odds of Matt wearing a waistcoat are going up then:) Will be something to look forward to when we get home.
The eating segment of CF last night was wonderful. I've watched it a few times too. The little bounce as you say, but also his shoulders are massive in that top. I'm upset about the horses though. I had no idea you could buy a horse for less than five pounds in the UK, and no idea anyone could just go out and buy one like that without having any knowledge, experience of looking after them, let alone caring. I've been online looking for horse charities to donate to.

Well what a great figure that is. Did it have the biggest audience share of any prog last night?;)
The whole show last night was extremely good- from the antlerholic to the wow factor of the sports top and those very thuddable shoulders:D
Alan Titchmarsh was a very good,chatty,interested and interesting guest. He and MB have a good rapport - both country people with an interest in all things rural.
GJD - hope you have a wonderful time with OH and a few glasses of beetroot wine to celebrate.
SG - lots of pocs to you and so sorry that your lot is not a happy one at the moment. Make sure that you get your rest as well, feet up and wma - the antlers make nice viewing

Yes Sky - tweets a la MB are like buses - dont see one for days and then they all come at once. He only tweets on things that are important to him.
It's The One Show on 10th April with guest Sandi Toksvig. We have VTs on wildlife crime (Miranda Krestovnikoff), idiots who go walking with only phones / sat nav and not a real map (Rani Price), the captain of the Titanic - Edward John Smith (Graham Little), and the art of Quentin Blake at Addenbrookes (Phil Tuffnell)
Matt is wearing a pink shirt and charcoal coloured trousers
Only saw the first few mins of tos and of lovely mattness, in his spotty shirt and grey trews, looks like the razor on a little holiday, looking gawgus, will have to catch up on iplayer in the morning, wonderful way to start the day
GJD happy birthday to your OH, hope he's had a good day and you've had a lovely meal out

CCM! And restful sleeps to MBlovers, especially those who have had a difficult day......:sleep: xx
Morning all. What's wrong SG?
Haven't seen last night's TT yet as I got in quite late. I gather from tweets that there was finally some proper stubble and everyone's happy. Think I will keep it until I get back from dentist later on.

Proper stubble? More like a baby beard
He'll probably go and shave today just to be irritating though

No porridge here, shredded wheat, lovely tos last night alan was a good guest nice and chatty,but he does know the interviewing lark, matt was looking lovely,nice knee hugging, there was a lots of stubble:D the buttons were having a little trouble, that top button does not to be undone:D
Jobs going well thanks lotus, more or least got myself sorted out with what i'm doing, all good fun.:)

It's the BBC Olympics launch day today and someone has kindly posted the information over on the ratings thread. Here's the bits we're interested in:
09:00 to 11:30 Mishal Husain brings the first of the day’s live action from the athletics, rowing and swimming heats. Venue presentation from Matt Baker, Clare Balding, Jonathan Edwards, Jake Humphrey and John Inverdale.
11:30 to 13:45 The live action continues into the afternoon with Matt Baker, Clare Balding or Hazel Irvine. The focus will remain on the athletics, rowing and swimming heats plus other events including the men’s triathlon.
Obviously, the sports will change as we go through the Olympics and the days Matt is on Gym duty he'll be on throughout the day and not presenting. Whilst presenting though the implication appears to be he may be on between 9:00 - 11:30 sometimes doing venue based presenting as well as doing anchor stints on other days between 11:30 - 13:45.Just noticed that on the BBC website they also mention Matt on the 13:00 - 16:00 stints so he could be involved in 2 different studio slots (on different days I assume) and venue links at any time.
I also note we have a very diplomatic strict alphabetical order on presenters
Glad to hear job going well SkyBlue, always takes a while to learn the ropes.
Thanks for the Olymp*c info KK, will have to take some time to go through it.......and it's funny about the alphabetical listing of presenters, let's hear it for Mr B
Off to another part of computer to try and get Olymp*c tickets, failure yesterday, no doubt same result today!

These are a bit lurid for my taste really. The combination of Matt's shirt, the background, and the tan is all a bit too much. However, I have fond memories of the show so it's nice to have some souvenirs. Sandi was so funny, especially her story about Tom Jones's attire when she met him. She's a clever, lovely, lady I think.
So, I've put on some sunglasses and chosen a few I would like in a different colour scheme.

Thanks for the in fo KK. I remember him mentioning in an interview somewhere in the distant past that there was no T1S during the Olympics and that he was in the studio during the day any time from 11.30-4pm and then dashing off to the O2 for the gymnastics commentary, Hope the wheels on rictoria are well and truly pumped up........................:D:D A very busy man this year - more so than usual
SG - glad you a feeling a tad cheered up - you have the O******c T******h to look forward to
Sky - glad the job is going well. Any chance of permenant??
Well, very lovely TT tonight. Russell was almost as lively as Matt who was at his tiggerish best. Think he might have had a bit of a shave though. Matt, that is - don't know about Russell. Still, looking good. I think that shirt may once have been worn with a waistcoat. Or maybe I just think it should be worn with a waistcoat? I seem to remember an early waistcoat occasion and someone saying they didn't much like the spotted shirt.
Great news about Olympic coverage. Hope I'm not working cause that will mean an awful lot of recording and catching up to do! Still, if I must, I must.
A good tos, russell was very bouncy, full of beans, nice little rendition of flower of scotland, great anthem.
Matt looking nice in his pattered shirt,think he wore it when Englebert was on, looks like he has had abit of a stubble trim, nice and bouncy as well. bless he got tongue tied saying the name of russells album, then said sorry, he is such a sweetie http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/574954_10150870969512696_26363622695_9529450_87216105_n.jpg
Going to get lots of matt on during the olympics going to be great, think i'll be watching lots of sports
Lotus, don't think the job will become premenant as i'm covering sick leave, as person had op on foot.
As well as Matt being on the Olympic coverage there was a tweet earlier today from Sian Williams which seemed to imply Matt was involved in the Jubilee coverage. She said
Thank you @bakermattbaker - invaluable advice. Have fun on the Jubilee - look forward to hearing you in my earpiece X
Sounds like he might be doing something on an outside broadcast whilst Sian is in the studio? I hope so anyway as I think he should be involved somewhere.
My preference (which I've said before) would be for him to be involved in the coverage of the boat pageant which will be an amazing event. Failing that I'd settle for the carriage procession / salute after the service of thanksgiving (which will inevitably be presented by Huw Edwards just to bore us to death!). Though even the beacon lighting would be cool. I'm avoiding the concert as I think that's a bit tacky and will probably be hosted by Radio 1 DJs anyway...

It's the BBC Olympics launch day today and someone has kindly posted the information over on the ratings thread. Here's the bits we're interested in:
09:00 to 11:30
Mishal Husain brings the first of the day’s live action from the athletics, rowing and swimming heats. Venue presentation from Matt Baker, Clare Balding, Jonathan Edwards, Jake Humphrey and John Inverdale.
11:30 to 13:45
The live action continues into the afternoon with Matt Baker, Clare Balding or Hazel Irvine. The focus will remain on the athletics, rowing and swimming heats plus other events including the men’s triathlon.
Obviously, the sports will change as we go through the Olympics and the days Matt is on Gym duty he'll be on throughout the day and not presenting. Whilst presenting though the implication appears to be he may be on between 9:00 - 11:30 sometimes doing venue based presenting as well as doing anchor stints on other days between 11:30 - 13:45.Just noticed that on the BBC website they also mention Matt on the 13:00 - 16:00 stints so he could be involved in 2 different studio slots (on different days I assume) and venue links at any time.
I also note we have a very diplomatic strict alphabetical order on presenters
Feeling bit better today, thanks for everyone's concern, won't go into it here but suffering a bit, but not as badly as OH!
My favourite phawtaw from the last set of KK's fab pics....

Glad to hear job going well SkyBlue, always takes a while to learn the ropes.
Thanks for the Olymp*c info KK, will have to take some time to go through it.......and it's funny about the alphabetical listing of presenters, let's hear it for Mr B
Off to another part of computer to try and get Olymp*c tickets, failure yesterday, no doubt same result today!
These are a bit lurid for my taste really. The combination of Matt's shirt, the background, and the tan is all a bit too much. However, I have fond memories of the show so it's nice to have some souvenirs. Sandi was so funny, especially her story about Tom Jones's attire when she met him. She's a clever, lovely, lady I think.
So, I've put on some sunglasses and chosen a few I would like in a different colour scheme.

These are all lovely I think. With special bonus points for the stubble:).
Thank you kk.
Thanks for the in fo KK. I remember him mentioning in an interview somewhere in the distant past that there was no T1S during the Olympics and that he was in the studio during the day any time from 11.30-4pm and then dashing off to the O2 for the gymnastics commentary, Hope the wheels on rictoria are well and truly pumped up........................:D:D A very busy man this year - more so than usual
SG - glad you a feeling a tad cheered up - you have the O******c T******h to look forward to
Sky - glad the job is going well. Any chance of permenant??
Great news about Olympic coverage. Hope I'm not working cause that will mean an awful lot of recording and catching up to do! Still, if I must, I must.
Had some heavy drought showers this afternoon.
A good tos, russell was very bouncy, full of beans, nice little rendition of flower of scotland, great anthem.
Matt looking nice in his pattered shirt,think he wore it when Englebert was on, looks like he has had abit of a stubble trim, nice and bouncy as well. bless he got tongue tied saying the name of russells album, then said sorry, he is such a sweetie

Going to get lots of matt on during the olympics going to be great, think i'll be watching lots of sports
Lotus, don't think the job will become premenant as i'm covering sick leave, as person had op on foot.
Sounds like he might be doing something on an outside broadcast whilst Sian is in the studio? I hope so anyway as I think he should be involved somewhere.
This is the BBC events calendar: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-16598483
My preference (which I've said before) would be for him to be involved in the coverage of the boat pageant which will be an amazing event. Failing that I'd settle for the carriage procession / salute after the service of thanksgiving (which will inevitably be presented by Huw Edwards just to bore us to death!). Though even the beacon lighting would be cool. I'm avoiding the concert as I think that's a bit tacky and will probably be hosted by Radio 1 DJs anyway...
