    What do yous think of this? It's a bit like a Norn Iron version of QI; a mixture of comedy and facts. It's not up there with the British panel shows, but on the other hand it's not down there with the Irish ones.

    There was a slightly awkward dynamic between the two comedians telling jokes, opposite the two 'serious' guests making salient points. One minute you're having craic, the next you're getting a scientific spiel about overpopulation. It makes for a bit of a tonal shift, but if they can smooth that out, I reckon they've got a decent show on their hands.

    Switched it off when I saw that little ginger chap from Republic of Telly on it. :rolleyes:

    Yeah, Delamere's not great, but he was certainly better on this than he was on RoT. He was only a guest anyway, not a regular.

    And he's not ginger is he?

    It looks brown, with maybe a slight tint of ginger. Auburn maybe? Certainly not full-on orange ginger.

    I've got red hair myself; takes one to know one.

    This was originally a Radio Ulster programme, I heard it a few times on Saturday afternoons. I think it worked better on the radio, the expert nerds look a bit out of place when the camera cuts to them.

    Decent enough programme, better than most BBC NI shows, (I know, that's not saying much!) . It's a bit similar to QI, they really shouldn't have the two on the same evening.
