He`s too busy doing voiceovers. For someone who made a big deal out of doing a second series of Life on Mars (as if to say, "I wouldn`t normally lower myself...") he`s more than willing to lend his voice to advertising any old tat.

John Simm said he felt tired doing Life On Mars as he was in every scene and found the shoot demanding. I think that was his explanation, or part of it, for not doing a third series.

State of Play was the best thing John Simm ever did - not a lot of laughs in that either.

I preferred Ashes to Ashes anyway. It was less miserable. Heaven forbid these 'tired' actors ever end up working in Tesco's! That would physically make them go home knackered! These people choose to become an actor and then complain when they get the prospect of a decent job.

* From There to Here is one of the biggest drama turkeys of 2014 so far, if not the biggest. * BBC Two's smoking documentary rated very poorly last week, will attract a very different audience anyway. * Hard to see ITV's Ryan Giggs doc doing well in Total People, but might lure some male 16-34's away. * C4's Comedy Gala usually rates solidly but no more than that. So no excuses against that lot really. It's in the perfect slot. |

Can't grumble at the opposition.

John Simm loves misery porn dramas. Him and Jimmy McGovern and most of Channel 4's drama output! Why? Gritty BAFTA that's why!

John Simm loves misery porn dramas. The only recent ones that had a dash of humour were Life On Mars and Doctor Who. It was ages ago that he did something full on funny with Men Of The World.

There is literally no momentum around BB this year, if it wasn't for this forum/Twitter I wouldn't even know it was launching tonight.
What last year showed though is that it doesn't have to launch extremely well to have a good series overall. |

Had a look and Big Brother really has poor competition tonight so should do well because of the nothing-else-on thing.

Now that Des is selling Channel 5, I notice BB didn't make it to the front cover of the Daily television guide this year and the critic has been allowed to drop its rating to four stars. I suppose their 5 on 5 feature will go soon as well.

What a redundant comment. You could say the same about pretty much anything.

Nice over-analysis. Do you buys Desmond's rags purely to report back on such pressing matters? The Daily Star's coverage has increased this year, any theories on that?

Do you actually read posts before replying? Whenever BB starts you are automatically on the defensive, getting offended by any negative post written about it. BB is a shit, pathetic programme that requires zero intellect to watch it band is full of people with zero intellect participating. If you like it all well and good, but Yorkie made a tongue in cheek comment that was not to be taken seriously and you took it OTT seriously. There is also an element of fact in yorkies post though. Most normal people will not even consider watching BB if it was the only thing on. I doubt if you would if it wasn't on C5. Sorry, rant over. And breathe...........
"Most normal people." Get off your high horse, it's just telly. If I get defensive it's because I don't like the tone of people like you. |
