Jason Bradbury Quits The Gadget Show
https://mobile.twitter.com/JasonBrad...71147773902848
I suspect there will be more cries of "good" than there are of "shame" but i didn't mind him - his enthusiasm for what he was doing was infectious as much as it was probably a bit irritating. I assume the show will continue without him though, so it'll be interesting to see who they get to replace him. |

I only watch the gadget show every now and again, but I liked him.

I thought he was OK, it was the show that's lost me as a viewer. No decent in depth coverage of the new "gadge", endless ads and competition crap. Waste of an hour.

I like him, but I got fed up of the show when it seemed that 25% of it became reading out the prizes in the competition.

Maybe they'll get one of the younger stand up comedians ?. Find someone who's gadget mad but has the required "energy" for the show maybe. |

Jason Bradbury is a good presenter/geek person. Pity the program went tits up several years ago.
A bit like Top Gear, I remember when that reviewed cars. |

Wouldn't say no to Lara Lewington from Click though

The Gadget Show is still going?!
![]() I haven't watched in absolutely years, probably because ironically technology has made it a bit redundant in that I can just fire up one of many sites or YouTube to learn pretty much everything I would ever want to know about the latest gadgets! |

![]() ![]() For me, I do think it lost a lot of what made it watchable a long time ago. They ditched the studio segments and it eventually became what it is now which is a collection of standalone featurettes on certain gadgets or technology. Each featurette has a running time when it starts so at least it makes it easier to know how many minutes to skip forward i suppose

They lost me as a viewer when they did the world tour series.

I can't say I dislike him, but I always wonder how anyone with a lisp gets a presenting job?

Really like Jason, thought of him as the main presenter of the show and he has so much enthusiasm about gadgets. Won't be the same without him. It's just Bentley left from the original presenters.
What about Suzi Perry coming back? Not sure if she left on good terms but she's no longer doing F1, after the BBC ended their coverage contract early. |

Thing is, a lot of their reviews don't appear to bear any relation to the products I have purchased in the past. If I had took notice of what they said about certain products I would never have purchased anything. I found them to be generally inaccurate.
I like the fact that with some gadgets, they give them 'real world' reviews and invent scenarios that might occur during every day use so you can see what could happen. I think it's a better way of doing it than of watching a point by point breakdown of something. Quote:

Saying that though, I think relations must have thawed slightly in the past few years because she's frequently been seen in old clips from the show and that didn't happen for a fair while after she left. |

Simon Cowell lets his unwanted staff say they resigned rather than him sacking them, so I wonder if bald, lisping, dressed like an American teenage skateboarder, act like an over-excited schoolboy Jason jumped before he was pushed. |

He was ok, but like many, I stopped watching it years ago and wasn't even aware that it was still on.

Amy Williams has just announced that she has left, too.
But she is pregnant. |
