    Can't believe ye all. So this is the reason my favourite tv programme is off air. it's all down to ye lot. I loved it and i think ye did too. I miss the Lauren and Aoife and of course i miss JG (oh and the crazy redhead too, can't remember her name now though) I wondered where all the complainants came from and now i know after reading this thread. I miss the regular callers sure they were like family to me. Oh Mary and her doing so well out of it. Bet shes not too happy with ye either. Is there any chance ye might all get together and look to get it back on. There is three of us older ladies that got together two or three times every week to watch it. We use to have sleep overs in each others houses and drink a few whiskeys before we'd start ringing in,ah sure we had great times, our phone bill were crazy but we had nothing much else to do with our pensions, bingo is no good anymore when ya cant smoke, so we looked forward to Playtv. If ye decide to have a go at getting it back on, count the three of us in to support ye all the way. Think about it anyway cos as im sure ye know, ye are powerful people.

    Not sure how to take this, sarcasm irony? Ye should organize outdoor Bingo during the summer months so ye can smoke. We wouldn't mind the show continuing if it was fair.

    Damn new dictionary got me thinking sarcasm was irony. :confused:

    Re the above's message - get the feeling you work in TV3 or your names might have an Eileen or Peter ring to them....(excuse the pun) !!!

    If you are either of these two individuals, you will know what i'm talking about, you sure would want it back on, as you made a small fortune on poor gullible people!

    Great the sun in out, am going to plant a few plants now!!! :mad::mad::mad:

    I hate to admit it but there are still some nights when I come in from a night out and I have a momentary urge to "see what madness is on Play TV tonight" and then remember with a slight touch of melancholy that we got rid of it ;)

    Probably because it was around this time of year that it started first, wasn't it?

    Ironically, their website is still up and has no mention of the aforementioned events:

    EDIT: In other news, when did James Bond become Captain Haddock? :D

    Just to say, what a team we still are. :):P:p

    Well just a mention on this site that was so active and now a bit lonely. but on it...JUSTICE WAS DONE....

    And watching a bit of Brainbox the other night.. did hear a familiar voice, and name from about 25miles north of Dublin..beginning with a C.
    And I just laughed.......really the song say's it very well......"When will they ever Learn".

    Triangle Roberto...How's the redhead? Of course you won't be telling us about her!!! and where's JG gone???? he should join Miriam 0'Callaghan and be the co-host on Primetime, (well he would be well informed on a certain topic) so maybe she might even have him on as a Guest...oh i'd love that interview....he could tell the public how he became so knowledgable about a certain colour,(although he might be a be pearly white in that area), (ha ha), an expert in deep freezing, what he puts on his baps, and of course his expertise in wildlife!!!

    Jeepers that would make a good show.

    They can give Aoife a guest host on Tonight with Vincent Browne now that he is on holidays.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,811 ✭✭✭✭billy the squid


    dont know if anyone found some Play TV south Africa but here is some contained in Derval Mellets latest Show Reel.

    http://vimeo.com/12531909

    Mo mention of the fact that two of the three intermedia shows featured in the showreel have been cancelled. playtv ireland and canada.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,476 ✭✭✭✭Our man in Havana


    It has been impossible to find any footage of the South African show.

    Why do you want footage? It seems to be the same production company broadcasting the same stuff from the UK. Recently a local version has come out, which they show on e-TV (free terrestrial channel).
