You forgot to add the fact that she has nice puppies too
Oh yes, "nice smile" and "nice puppies" (neither of which I agree with, maybe "nice puppies" in the 90s but I think the two kids since have ruined them now!)
IThe Gadget section is always good for a laugh and guaranteed to end in disaster as the gadget presenters know nothing about the products they are presenting. They really are woefully under-prepared, it's no surprise Tim gets annoyed with them - the section is usually a total embarrassment every week.
Talking of the gadgets, I can see the idea of the bottle filter thingy, but I thought we weren't suppoesd to reuse bottles too many times - they degrade and leak carcinogens or something don't they?

Well, I'd have to inspect them close-up just to make sure
I hate football so I always love it when they lose, just so I know Tim will be annoyed the next day when he's presenting the show
Unfortunately for you that doesn't happen very often! Whereas it's a fairly common result for Liverpool, so watching Tim ask Simon how Liverpool got on is always quite amusing.
Perhaps they should mandate that the next female presenter (preferably with a brain) should be a Man United fan so Tim can gloat even more...
this lot are so dim, they were all half asleep this morning and moaned about why they were on earlier than usual, they didnt know why and Tim then mentions about watching the golf, duh! thats why the programme was on at an earlier time!
The cooking element of this show is absolutely dire. Today's pork omelette thingy looked like vomit!
Nobody every pays much attention to what Simon Rimmer is doing, which clearly annoys him, and there's too much inane chatter from Lovejoy. I often find myself thinking what they attempt to make could be bought from the shops for an awful lot less bother and would probably taste a whole lot better to boot! Life is just too short to make you own jaffa cakes etc!
The 'let's make a cocktail' section' is also a complete waste of time. I mean, who really has all these obscure bottles of liquer and alcohol lying in a cupboard at home? Poor Wayne is left to prattle on while Lovejoy and Redknapp generaly blank him and have their own little private conversations, and then Louise pronounces everything she is given to drink as 'gorgeous' Aaargh! They would be just as well showing the same cocktail make every week. It never really strays from that.
This show is so past it's sell by date it really should be taken off the shelf and binned.

My guess is the show is aimed at a broad cross section of society, some with young families that might enjoy cooking together in the kitchen on a Sunday afternoon.
Not every section of the show is aimed at your particular lifestyle, you know!
It's very bland in every way, but there isn't much to compete with it in that time slot. Louise is 'nice' but no Paxman. The Simon/Tim football banter is coma-inducing. Simon's a real fan, but 'monotone' Tim was always a Watford fan - until the money started rolling in at Chelsea.
The show's usually just 'white noise' in the background for me. I don't dislike any of the presenters, but it wouldn't break my heart if they 'mistakenly' locked in a storeroom with a starving lion.

That's a nice format.
Weekend Lion with Mel and Sue
"This week the flip funsters give the lion a much needed meal in the shape of Simpsons creator Matt Groening.
Later the crazy comedians have a chat with 'napsack Selma', the gadget girl, who demonstrates a variation on a toy helicopter yet again. This time with built-in rifle.
After the lion has eaten the cocktail hour begins...

Agree about the cocktails, but we've done quite a few of Simons recipes and they've been great, that pork thing did look bad though
They've suddenly started doing Deja View again, wonder if someone reads this thread?
One of the worst bits about this show comes right at the start where Tim is seen clearly trying to psyche himself up for a cheery-sounding "Good morning!", whereas you can tell him his body language and his eyes that he's clearly dying inside.
She presented The Swan, probably the most misogynist television programme ever made, once described as "the most morally bankrupt TV since Al Qaeda's latest press release."
Sarah Manners was ridiculously tall. Tall women do nothing for me.
That's another reality TV show right there:
"Sarah, Plain and Ridiculously Tall"
Five very tall women wish to be normal height and beautiful, watch and stare as Amanda Byram and Dr Nick perfom Radical Leg Shortening and cosmetic surgery LIVE!

I was hoping that Man Utd would win the league by just ONE point, just to really stick in his craw, but it didn't happen.

Amanda - tedious and plain
Lou - cute and sexy
Sarah - average looking
That's a nice format.

That'll be the killer heels that she was wearing - part of making an effort, which gadget girl also tries to do
I thought the BBC was the most PC TV corporation in the world and they're employing the female equivalent of Uncle Tom (kind of).
Where is the feminist outrage?
Still in the kitchen getting the Sunday lunch sorted?
Benedict seems lovely, nice voice and liked his Alan Rickman

What year was the deja vu clip from?
