Evening to all and sundry

I agree with you SkyBlue that the above picspam is fabulous, think it has to be one of my all-time favourites, thanks KK I've posted that fab close-up on the other channel - what a beauty

Pretty well tuckered out now - my treat of a quick nap never transpired as 'life' happened. After a busy day of family responsibilities and a hectic day tomorrow, think I may crash out for a few hours...

Isn't this lovely from your last set KK:

Well, better shut up shop now....no Matt on CF but Monday will soon come around. Night night,CCM and all that, sleep well dear readers........ :sleep: xx

Still looking good on 9 Januuary then. Lovely shirt, lovely stubble, and most importantly, no haircut! Lots of great pics here, especially the close-ups where his eyes are so intense and lovely. These are my favs.

Thanks kk.

No Matt tonight Never thought I'd say this but roll on Monday!

Lots of things I want to see though. Unfortunately mostly on at the same time (Ripper Street, Wonders of Life, Mr. Selfridge). Can't record everything!

Afternoon all

Puts down wallpaper and pastoing brush - phew. Me old bones dont like standing on a stepladder.

I know Rita. Sunday is as good as Saturday is c**p! Given up trying to watch DOI - not enought minutes in the day to see them all. Tonights area in CF is one of my faves and Jervaux Abbey is beautiful.

At least now on 2 days a week I can catch T1S on t'other channel:

Afternoon all

Had re watch of cf at lunch, matt getting his legs out and having a go at rugby on the sand, but a mattless cf tonight


Matt is looking good, a nice shirt with good unbuttonage and some tiny wow's and a nice stubble thanks kk

Evening

A snowy cf, everyone wrapped up in lots of layers and beanie hats, sadly not one of them was matt.
Lovely cute red squrriels running around in the snow and john eating cheese.

At least you can get 2 out of 3 of those on iplayer so it's not too bad

Matt-free Countryfile was still interesting but I'm looking forward to seeing Matt and James in Cornwall next week. (And weirdly Julia is presenting a report from East Sussex - that's strangely the wrong way round compared to normal, but I guess Julia can't try out Cornish Wrestling )

Morning. Happy Monday to all. Thanks to I-Player Automatic I can get all three. But I watched Ripper St., recorded Wonders and will catch up with Mr. Selfridge (the least important to me) this morning.

We have snow today and I have to decide with a 13-year old cooker whether to get it repaired or buy a new one.

I know there was no Matt last night but I still have to smile at this: Countryfile 6.90m; Dancing on Ice 6.73m/5.39m;

It finally happened - Countryfile beat Dancing on Ice in the ratings

That's great! I didn't watch it last night but had it on in the background. Really good news

Evening. Busy day as per usual but now a little bit of time for myself!

Hoping everyone had a great Monday (as Mondays go ) and you were able to relax in front of the telly at 6.58pm! I missed the first few minutes but was able to soak up the lovely dark blue denim shirt and contents therein Tony was a great guest and it all ended much too soon

Fantastic news about CF beating DOI by a country mile (sorry ) Let's hope this trend continues....I used to really like DOI but one of the presenters irritates me so I tend not to watch it so much......

Better get down to some form-filling not much fun but needs must.......

Evening all.

A good tos tonight, interesting start to the show with matt and alex sitting on a bed
Antony was a good guest , but didn't seem to chat to him much or maybe i was distracted by someone else sitting on the green sofa

Lovely shirt matt was wearing with nice unbuttonage and wow's, stubble still there.

Great going cf beating DOI. Used to enjoy DOI as well, but got really fed up with one of the judges being so rude to the constants that i stopped watching.

Trouble is that DOI now has to contend with a really good Sunday night viewing on the Beeb right through from the afternoon. Quite diffficult to fit in the evening repast

I have tried to catch it on I player but the time seems to elude me somehow, For some reason it just doesnt seem to enthrall the publice to the same extent as SCD I have to make choices and so ther is only one choice for me (followed by Midwife and Ripper St of course),

Enjoyed tonights little offering (guest was rather nice as well).

Afternoon all . The Ratings Thread are still not getting in ratings very well but I've seen on Attentional that last night's One Show got 4.58m. Looking at the numbers from last week it was mostly averaging a 22% audience share for around those viewing figures (it seemed to vary between 4.57m - 4.62m so really stable!). Obviously Wednesday is always lower but it's doing OK...

Don't know who the guest is for today yet but from what Matt said yesterday they have Bruce Willis on tomorrow (he'll be promoting the latest Die Hard movie). I think he should be a pretty good guest.

And I'm hoping to get back to doing a picspam today

Hellaw, another quietish day in DS land

Glad to see OS is holding its own at the moment, a good stable audience (well, as stable as a One Show viewer can be ) and excellent guests to keep people tuning in. Bruce W will attract a hefty ratings, I would imagine.... Bruce was a big hero of mine when he first came into the public domain (anybody remember Moonlighting?) His Die Hard movies are a particular genre, not exactly to my taste, and he has covered the whole gamut of film storylines. He's very talented, can turn his hand to anything....remind us of someone else? He'll have one or two anecdotes to bring to the table - Matt loves an anecdote - and I'm really looking forward to tomorrow's prog!

Missed most telly last night due to the form-filling taking all evening I never seem to be able to catch up on all the fabulous progs currently on offer, think we're all in the same position.....

Been out lunching with a friend, have eaten a huge lemon meringue sundae, the pound that I lost has no doubt immediately gone back on, especially on the hips

Looking forward to your picspam KK.....a little wait is good for us, gives us time for our thud injuries to heal, gives us an eagerness and a sense of anticipation, and we've become spoilt little bakerettes More delicious pics will be worth hanging around for!

Bitter wind today but no snow fortunately. The sky is darkening so no walkies for me today besides the fact that I've run of steam and am full of fishcakes, chips and meringue

Thanks for finding these ratings kk. Not bad at all I think. Tonight is celebrating 25 years of Red Nose Day. Richard Curtis (I think) is the guest. Director of Four Weddings and a Funeral.

So, space hopper commute for Comic Relief then?

Do we think that's actually going to happen?

Evening all.

Good tos tonight with richard, very funny when the older lady said she fell asleep watching Notting hill, alex fell about laughing, he took it very well that she didn't find the film interesting. Great red furry look for the sofa's.
Wonder how they are going to do the CR challenge, space hopping to work.

Matt looked great in his t-shirt, would liked to have seen it minus the jacket, great stubble and a happy bouncy matt.

star, your lunch sounds nice, especially the lemon meringue sundae

Evening...

Just been given a spacehopper for my grandchildren, I could accompany Matt and Alex on their journey Probably not...

Fantastic and funny OS tonight. I knew that Richard C had thought up the whole idea for CR and it's wonderful that he's had such input throughout the years. He's so well known in the entertainment business that he only has to ask......and the stars come flocking!

Matt looked marvellous in the jacket/tshirt/jeans combo....he's a lovely man!

Hello - just managed to catch up tonight the One Show on iplayer. Very entertaining show. Matt and Alex looking lovely together tonight. They looked back 25 years of Comic Relief that raised over £600m. Looked like Matt was on duty fllming with Prince Charles for tonight show. And there is Matt Baker version on the One Show in Ghana! I cannot believe it!


I am really looking forward to see Matt comes to work on a spacehopper on 15 Feb. Last year I saw a glimpse of Matt and Alex on the spacehoppers on the main show and I was a bit disappointed that I missed out to record it. Now I got a good chance. Alex just said it is an hour and half away for Matt to come to work. I don't know how he would manage to do it but if he does well he could collect some donation money on his way. I think people would love to donate. And he seemed to be ready for his challenge.

I'd love to see Only Fools on Horses as a repeat if the BBC look back 25 years of its Comic Relief fundrasing.

Matt is an hour and a half away from work by sensible means of transport (admittedly this is Matt so sensible sometimes = cycle)! It's 45 minutes each way by train... It's over 30 miles to the office and the world record distance travelled by space hopper is less than 4 miles. And the guy who did that was in his early 20's and still said it hurt a lot...

If Matt genuinely commuted to work by space hopper it would be a major charity event so I'm not sure that's what will be happening...

Yes, I do think it will happen. Don't think it would have been mentioned otherwise. Though heaven knows how. Probably both together from a point not too far from the office. "Commute" doesn't have to mean all the way from home I suppose. Should be interesting!!

....and why not?

Hello Emma. How are you?

Yes, Only Fools on Horses would be good
When is Comic Relief anyway?
