    Currently being discussed over in Televison.

    Its no surprise at all frankly Dunphy never semed to have his heart or mind in the programme. He made no effort to promote the show either by good quality interviews with quality guests (and where he did have good guests he was relying on the guest to do all the work) or through media work by Dumph himself.

    The biggest failing was of course its slot - going head to head with the Market Leader was madness.
    Eastenders won't battle Corrie directly and vis-versa with good reason...

    Funny, I actually enjoyed the programme, it was a very welcome change from the Kenny/Kelly/Daly offerings of the last few years. Can't remember the last time I bothered to go out of my way to record a chat show but I have recorded the last few weeks. Aw well, takes all sorts I guess.

    Oh man, what a quality joke by Eamo after the interview with the Royal Butler/Employee. I burst my hole laughing, it was so funny.
