Yes Emma, I thought Aliona and Matt C's dance in Britain's Brightest was great and had echoes of Aliona's brilliant partnership with our FBB! Wasn't too keen on the prog itself (a bit serious I thought for a Saturday night entertainment show) but it was so lovely to see Aliona strut her stuff again with an excellent partner

Still trying in vain to view more pics, but there were a couple you'd picked out Emma in your last post.....

Both are extremely lovely aren't they. I'm hoping to have a bit of a Mattfest later but other jobs seem to be getting in the way.

All geared up for tomorrow's CF, three MB clips for our delectation....it's all good So until then, CCM, night night and sweet dreams of MB (which incidentally I did a few nights ago, but it was very muddley and not at all thuddy ) Sleep tight everyone. :sleep: xx

Has anyone watched a game/quiz show the Britain’s Brightest Episode 1 hosted by Claire Bolding this evening? The mathematic bits were good fun to attempt, words I couldn’t manage well, and for the pictures puzzle I should have answered correctly but I failed to make a good guess cos I didn’t listen to the question properly. A picture puzzle is (WELCOME + beach/bay + red car) and the correct answer was (mat + bay + car) Matt Baker, the FBB!

He always is a busy boy cos he can’t sit still unless he’s so tired.
that is so true

Didn't watch britains brightest had a DVD on, will try and catch it next week


It's August 2012 and the first 2 weeks were Olympicful. This did mean no One Show or Countryfile for the duration...

For Countryfile we just had the Summer Special - they had better weather for the Winter one!

The One Show was back on the 13th of August and continued the Olympic theme. Then late in the month they tried out a Roadshow (which with hindsight appears to have been a trial run for 2 things - one hour shows on Wednesdays and being able to run the show as an outside broadcast which they needed for the Rickshaw Challenge)

Great to see Aliona and Matthew Cutler dancing Paso double…what a fabulous and gorgeous dance but when I saw Matthew was standing while Aliona was dancing around him for a few seconds in their opening sequence, I was thinking …himmmm…if it was not Matt C but our Matt B, Craig would criticize that he did not actually dance in that moment, sadly…hah..hah… I know so well about Craig!



He always is a busy boy cos he can’t sit still unless he’s so tired.
Hello. Yes, I watched this. Wasn't it lovely to see Matthew Cutler again. And Aliona who I have really missed this year. I thought their dance was beautiful - not more SCD as some have complained since neither of them were on it this year. I enjoyed the whole show in fact but it seems not many people did. It's received some heavy criticism on different boards. Most seemed to think it was too easy (not for me it wasn't), "dumbed down" or disjointed - the latter I could agree with and certainly think it could be improved. Alas if it doesn't get good ratings it won't have the chance.

Back to my not-yet-completed 2012 picspams and I'm on the 27th of November. Because I'm so far behind I'm going to skip captions and just grab a whole bunch of pictures from each episode - it's quicker!
I've decided to abandon the remaining couple of picspams from the previous thread you'll be happy to know. There are some nice pics there, mind you, but neither of them were my favourite look and I just got fed up with going backwards. Hopefully this won't happen again for a long time - especially given the length they're allowing the threads to run to these days!

So, some really gorgeous ones in this little lot - and we seem to have two different outfits?? I like the first one, but the second one is just fabulous. I love all of these:

Afternoon

Onto September in our 2012 review and normal service was mostly resumed

For Countryfile Matt was in Oxfordshire on a wildlife journey, visited the Furness Peninsula, went on a DH Lawrence inspired journey around Nottinghamshire, and went on a train journey near Lochaber

Hello. Yes, I watched this. Wasn't it lovely to see Matthew Cutler again. And Aliona who I have really missed this year. I thought their dance was beautiful - not more SCD as some have complained since neither of them were on it this year. I enjoyed the whole show in fact but it seems not many people did. It's received some heavy criticism on different boards. Most seemed to think it was too easy (not for me it wasn't), "dumbed down" or disjointed - the latter I could agree with and certainly think it could be improved. Alas if it doesn't get good ratings it won't have the chance.
Well, if you check the ratings thread you'll see the Britain's Brightest quiz did OK. About 4.5m viewers and a share of 20ish%. What's more, the audience grew throughout the show so it might do OK next week too.

I really liked the round with the mathematics tricks - I didn't know either of those and they're really handy little number patterns to help with mental arithmetic. It wasn't particularly difficult but I was really impressed with how much Clair the maths teacher just outclassed everyone else!

I've decided to abandon the remaining couple of picspams from the previous thread you'll be happy to know. There are some nice pics there, mind you, but neither of them were my favourite look and I just got fed up with going backwards. Hopefully this won't happen again for a long time - especially given the length they're allowing the threads to run to these days!

So, some really gorgeous ones in this little lot - and we seem to have two different outfits?? I like the first one, but the second one is just fabulous. I love all of these:

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/...03at212424.png

The 2 outfits were because of a special pre-recorded iPlayer bit on this episode warning people not to call in to the number they mentioned in the show as the line was closed

And have you also decided to ignore the review of the year picspams in your attempt to catch up?

Hello all
To complete KK’s photo review 2012, I am starting it off from the Olympic Torch Relay 16 June 2012 Day 29: The Magical Moments of Matt Baker (Cos he brought the sun and the rainbow with him!) Matt runs the final leg of Olympics torch relay Day 29 in Durham.

Screencaps from Live Torchcam - Matt waiting for the Olympic flame

You can try again the Torchcan June 16, 2012 (From Gateshead to Durham) here:

Then click on the ‘Afternoon Blaydon to Durham’ tap, I haven’t tried it yet so not sure we can see Matt at the end of the clip.

Tthe Purple Radio (Durham Uni students) interview

Yes Emma, I thought Aliona and Matt C's dance in Britain's Brightest was great and had echoes of Aliona's brilliant partnership with our FBB! Wasn't too keen on the prog itself (a bit serious I thought for a Saturday night entertainment show) but it was so lovely to see Aliona strut her stuff again with an excellent partner
Hello. Yes, I watched this. Wasn't it lovely to see Matthew Cutler again. And Aliona who I have really missed this year. I thought their dance was beautiful - not more SCD as some have complained since neither of them were on it this year. I enjoyed the whole show in fact but it seems not many people did. It's received some heavy criticism on different boards. Most seemed to think it was too easy (not for me it wasn't), "dumbed down" or disjointed - the latter I could agree with and certainly think it could be improved. Alas if it doesn't get good ratings it won't have the chance.
Yes great to see them dancing together. Love them. It was beautiful to watch and no rules to stick to. It made me to re-watch Mattiona’s Paso in the final last night. Oh, those FBB’s hands hit the fantastic lines and pulled the Spanish Flamingo dance through his wrists were amazing. I’ve never seen a male celeb attempted this on strictly before. Have to say Aliona coached the FBB brilliantly.

Matthew and Aliona parts remind me of the observation round from the Question of the Sport, testing short-term memory. That needs good eyesight too which I obviously don’t have. I couldn’t see how many colour in Matthew’s cape and didn’t notice Aliona changed her shoes.

People have their opinions so not surprise if there were the negativities around.

Well, if you check the ratings thread you'll see the Britain's Brightest quiz did OK. About 4.5m viewers and a share of 20ish%. What's more, the audience grew throughout the show so it might do OK next week too.

I really liked the round with the mathematics tricks - I didn't know either of those and they're really handy little number patterns to help with mental arithmetic. It wasn't particularly difficult but I was really impressed with how much Clair the maths teacher just outclassed everyone else!



The 2 outfits were because of a special pre-recorded iPlayer bit on this episode warning people not to call in to the number they mentioned in the show as the line was closed

And have you also decided to ignore the review of the year picspams in your attempt to catch up?
No, certainly not. I've been going through them but not commenting (did that last year). I did post a thank you to you for doing it - if you didn't see it, well thank you

People have been saying the questions on Britain's Brightest were too easy - they already knew the maths tricks, spelling was simple etc. etc. Well anyway I'd never heard of the maths tricks, and even armed with this knowledge there's no way I could have answered the multiply by 11 questions when the numbers totalled more than nine in less than 4 seconds. Also, the spelling may have been easy but with 3-4 seconds to make your choice and punch out the wrong answers - not so easy. I think people forget this time limit plus physical involvement. I was also impressed with Clair - who wouldn't be. Don't much like her though. A little bit too perfect for me. I felt sorry for the crossword addict as he never really got the chance to try at a word challenge - mostly maths. Liked the show though and really pleased to see it got a good rating

Moving on to October - I'm getting there eventually!

For Countryfile Matt was in Northumberland (wearing one of his worst Countryfile outfits since the dark days of early 2010 when his trousers were still baggy!), they visited Hampshire to show some historic natural history footage, went to Beachy Head, and explored Anglesey (and ate chips )

Matt missed the start of the month through illness but made it back for the Wednesday show on the 3rd. He then had a break later in the month too - getting in a holiday (in Oman…) before the Rickshaw Challenge which they announced this month. And in a milestone - I passed 200 One Show picspams during the month!

Very sweet 3 clips of Matt on CF tonight, I think I have seen hound trailing clip before on telly and the husky racing in Cairngorm Mountain on youtube. Matt’s cute, charming and clever!

On next week CF, we are going to see Matt and Annie again. Wonderful!
Matt Baker and Julia Bradbury head to the Hertfordshire countryside. Julia finds out how a super food is providing the perfect habitat for shrimp. She gets up early to catch a glimpse of one of our rarest birds feasting on them. Matt meets the county's finest flyball teams before putting his own dog - Annie - through her paces on one of their courses. He also joins the rural special constables helping local police stamp out crime.

Evening all

A very good cf tonight, 3 lovely matty clips, hadn't seen the 1st or the 3rd clip before, they were great, lucky dog molly getting lots of cuddles from matt before her race. He was really giving it a go on the husky racing, poor juila falling off. looked like fun, the huskys were beautiful.

annie joining matt on cf next week doing flyball, when flyball has been shown on the crufts the dogs seem to really enjoy it, should be a good one

Evening all - well back to normal after the festive season . A lovely loadsamatty tonight. As usual the Bradbury Girl and The Baker Boy were in competitive mode and loved the husky race.

Well wonder what delights we will be in for tomorrow at 6 57 - dont anticipate a full bernard again but waistcoat would be very nice, Rita - hope you have the thud matt ready as we always expect the unexpected

I personally did not like either Splash or Britains Brightest. I have watched on i player and switched them both off. I really think they are running out of ideas (and money)

Sky -The subject matter on CF looks interesting next week as well

Evening everyone!

I seem to have got behind again with all catching-up on all the glorious picspams, but found this lovely pic amongst them...

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/...14at134607.png

Again I'd like to say thanks to KK for keeping us going over the holiday period with such a feast for the eyes

Emma, thank you so much for the links to the Olympics vids and MB pics....especially as you've included the gymnastics vid for the night I was at the 02, that is the 28th July! I was overjoyed to see you'd still got that vt It was a fantastic evening. I kept looking around for where I thought Mr B might be seated through my binoculars (which I should have been using to look at the gymnasts ) However, as you may remember, I was so very lucky to see Matt briefly at the Olympic Park a few days later when he was leaving the onsite BBC studios - how fortunate was I

Managed to see some of tonight's CF, the first vt of the racing hounds I hadn't seen before....how Miss Molly loved Matt! I missed the sheepdog segment but caught the final bit with the huskies pulling the sledge. I remembered I had seen this sequence before but it was great to see it again......poor Julia being thrown off like that and Matt, ever the gentleman, ran over to see that she was not injured. Bless

And it sounds as if there'll be much Mattilicious goodness on next week's CF - the beeb are keeping the customers satisfied......

There will be much joy tomorrow at 6.58 when Mr B appears on the OS, much anticipation on what he'll be wearing, and how much stubble will be on show I'll just be glad to see him.....

Better CCM and see OH for a little while Night night, sleep tight. :sleep: xx

Morning all. Good rating for Countryfile last night, given that it was a clip show and it was up against the Dancing On Ice premiere: Countryfile - 6.13m (23.2%). That rating surprised a few people on the ratings thread who'd been anticipating something more like 5.2m

Great rating, and one of the better shows for me. I was pleasantly surprised because I hadn't seen a couple of the Matt clips before, and they were good ones.

As an aside, I wonder how many people know it's a clip show before they start watching? It's not widely broadcast I think, and not everyone is as fanatical as we are.

Anyway, Matt fast ends tonight - yay!

I think a lot of people hadn't seen the Matt clips before as both were from early 2010. I hadn't seen the hound trailing before and whilst I saw the husky racing when it was on I wasn't such a big Matt fan then so didn't pay that much attention (other than to laugh at Julia being over-competitive and falling off!). I'd really like to get hold of that whole episode as the other bits included Matt doing a biathlon (skiing and shooting) and training the huskies.

When they discuss the next show at the end of the one that's on they say something like "Adam looks back over..." but I think that's as obvious as they get about it being a clip show unless you look at the website

It's The One Show on the 28th of November with guests - Sebastian Coe and Michael Ball - and I'm still not captioning as I'm rushing through these picspams!
Ah, the waistcoat. The beloved waistcoat! Let's hope it/they make plenty of fresh appearances in 2013. Pity about the shaven sideburns but you can't have everything I suppose
Most of my choices here seem to be mouth-related for some reason.

I like this one
http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/...04at211812.png

And this rather dreamy expression
http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/...04at212002.png

An unusual, and rather nice, teeth display here
http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/...04at212355.png

Nice side view of the famous lip-biting
http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/...04at213256.png

And here a slightly "goofy" lip-biting look
http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/...04at213555.png

And this is just a lovely mouth view altogether
http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/...04at213520.png

Thank you kk. Lovely pics - rushed or not.

Quick heads-up for everyone. As Alex is off filming in Malawi for Comic Relief the stand-in presenter tonight is Sarah Millican. This will upset some people on the main board who seem to hate her but I approve of this north-east takeover of the show I think she and Matt could work well together, particularly if there's a food related story!

I like her in smallish doses. She's been quite funny as a guest - presenter is a different thing. We'll see. She and Matt seem to get on very well so that's already a plus

Do we know who the guest is? Or rather, do you know - I know I don't

I like her in smallish doses. She's been quite funny as a guest - presenter is a different thing. We'll see. She and Matt seem to get on very well so that's already a plus

Do we know who the guest is? Or rather, do you know - I know I don't
To answer my own question, Rory Bremner it seems. Last time he was on was just before he was about to do Strictly (I think) and he was very keen and excited about it. I think he was one of those who were particularly sad to be knocked out.

Well, she's got her own chat show now so interviewing won't be completely alien to her and having another comedian as guest (particularly one who's been on the show before) should help too

Evening everyone

yay ,he's back. lovely to see matt again.
He's was looking fabulous,nice and stubbly,hair looking good nice and long, good unbuttonage, very very bouncy.
Sounds like it was a good xmas for team B a mini drum kit and piano, wonder which big kid had a play with the drum kit.
Sarah was a good guest presenter, made matt happy by bringing biscuits in.
Rory was a good guest, a nice fun show to start the year.
