Oh behave H. You are on a right old BBC rant today.
You seriously think these sketches are done to encourage viewers to watch the actual programme ? Watch CIN now, couple of ITV presenters to make you more at home ![]() No of course they are not, but it wouldn't hurt to pick a better clip that might make viewers (like me) look forward to the Xmas ep. But on this occasion, as long as CIN raise lots of money for charity, its not that imprtant in the grand scheme of things. |

I think there were maybe concerns from the I'm A Celebrity production team that it was all going swimmingly so they needed to inject something in there to spice it up. Danny and Martin alone may have been enough but the trial's certainly added an edge. Of course, those who were thinking it was dull are now enjoying the series and those who liked the relaxed atmosphere are disliking the edginess. It's not often that I feel sorry for producers but this might be one of those occasions.

Accidentally landed on CIN. Still garbage TV then. Go up digit one and hit TOTP 82 on BBC4 and it's like night and day.
Dave Kid Jenson! It's weird seeing these charts acts. None of them seem to be Act A featuring Act B. These acts look like popstars with distinctive personalities who could even sell magazines. Who knew? Glad to hear IAC has sprung in to life. I'm a day behind and was considering packing it in. ps.. number 1 is Come on Eileen. Cue that joke by Homer Simpson. |

So if it carried on, with them all getting along, all nicey, you would enjoy that for 3 weeks? I'm pretty sure ratings would start to go down as viewers declared it 'boring', which they have already.

Lowest Children in Need rating in a long long time. Not surprising either.
I'm a Celebrity should be around 7m. |

Going as far back to 2002, its the lowest ever rating for Children in Need
I know it raises a lot of money, which is great, but there's I feel there is no excitement around the telethon anymore. Only saw bits of last night but they didn't have much to offer. I remember in 2009 with Peter Kay's animated band and the year after that with the East Street sketch. They need to put more of an effort in and have special sketches. The cupboard seemed very bare this year. |

Just looked on BARB, the 2001 main show had 7.12m in the officials. So lowest in 15 years.
Yes it's not the best for Children in Need. I wonder if the IAC clash and the lack of Terry also contributed |

At least Children in Need did better than the usual ailing EastEnders on a Friday night.
And £46m raised - the highest raised on a Children in Need night. I'd say that's the ultimate aim as far as the BBC is concerned. |

A few years ago I think CIN pushed IAC down below 5 million, but it no way has the buzz about it to do that again. Also you have to wonder if its actually needed in current form given the astonishing figure raised. As a tv event-it needs more work next time imo. |

The content on Children in Need was very thinly spread,tired and weak, and the presenting cupboard was obviously very bare as they had to get non BBC presenters to present the BBC's flagship event of the year.
When a clip of Christmas Doctor Who, which isn't even as big a thing as it once was, is one of the main promoted highlights, it's time to think of new ideas. Yes it raises loads of money, but it's a secret how much of that was already banked by 7:30pm and how much is generated by the telethon itself. |
