Should'v e reserved my scepticism for the right thread, I just find the whole 'FUN x 3' thing tiresome, especially being told how hilarious something is, and to me the whole A&A thing isn't. Perhaps that's skewed my impression of the coverage?
Which would have been the right thread. I would have thought this thread would be perfect for your observation. I find the whole fun x 3 thing tiresome as well, but they all seem to be at it this year (I like Patsy, but I wanted to tell her off yesterday for mentioning the word fun again and again and again). Pamela is the same, and some others are doing exactly the same thing. It's almost like a competition, where the person who has the most fun or mentions the word fun excessively, will win it in the end.

Perhaps, although if people agreed with you about the amount of 'couple coverage' they would say so. There's plenty of criticism of the show on this thread and it is discussed like anything else. We all see what we want to see when it comes to what/who we like and don't like. The 'other' thread let's you moan about anything without any come back.

I agree with you on that point .From the beginning I have said its like a competion to see who can say FUN the most times in the three minutes . I think they took their lead from Chris and Ola and saw that FUN couples could win and now its all fun this and fun that and fun fun fun . And I too get a bit aggitated by it .

Perhaps we should open a book to see how many times the word fun is mentioned during an interview with each couple!

Anyone remember who is on tonight's show?

I don't find it forced when people say they are having fun, I love that they enjoy it so much they want to continually talk about it - better than moaning!

I think we will have to put 'fun' in the same category as 'journey' and wheeling out 'nanas, grandads, and small children'.

Would be interested to see what proportion coverage each couple gets. Pamela & James get loads of coverage, Gavin & Katya are rarely shown. Ann & Anton gets shoved down our throat.
Not true, by the end of each ITT week all couples have been gievn coverage including the couple who left the previous Saturday. I have the occasional moan about ITT but never about disproportionate coverage.

Right, my bets are -

Michelle & Brendan 8 funs

Pamela & James 7 funs

Anyone else?

Ooh Michelle and Brendan on tonight? I always feel a little nervous when they're on the couch.

Poor Gavin is getting dizzy. He says that he needs to be "quick on the uptake" better late than never I suppose.

Read our first comment and got who you meant!!

He's always rolling his eyes, and I do secretly love it when he gets a question wrong, his eyes roll around so much they get lost somewhere in his forehead.
