Just noticed free tickets linked through the channel 4 site http://www.applausestore.com/applausestore-book-form.php?did=2635&bid=1 which I guess is of value if your in Liverpool or thereabouts.  :Csmile:

I hope it gets better than what I've seen so far. Not sure chris evans was a good choice. He's shouting more than schofe does and he cant even get the name of the show right lol.

Yeah I think its 90 mins tomorrow and hopefully as the week goes on the live format will fit together a little better. Might even get chris to stop shouting.

I dont think the girls street luge really worked being a recorded event. 3000 people watching it on a big tv screen in an arena? Fail.

I've got to 4od last nights show yet but I thought the first show lacked flow. I just hope interest holds out till the PJ night and that the production gets a little better as the shows go by.

I know it's impossible now...But I wanted Lomu to win.
Everyone's dreams sit aloft a rungless ladder. Some ladders are higher than others. Some are so tall they reach high above the clouds - but everyone can see their dream. Most people see that their ladder has no rungs and although they may talk about climbing it one day, seeing no way to get there, they eventually give up and settle for what lies beneath it.
      The brave however, the wise, the imaginative and the strong of will seek out their missing rungs. They learn all they can about the ladder, they surround themselves with friends and family who would also find the rungs, and failing all else they craft the steps themselves with their own two hands from nothing. Sometimes a rung breaks and the person falls. Some of these people will fall too hard and lose the strength to climb again - Yet they feel comfort in knowing they tried. They became better for it. And they experienced things and witnessed sights upon the climb that those who sat forever beneath it will never know.
      Then there are the special few who find new steps, or fix and climb again the ones that failed. Who eventually, through sheer tenacity and courage come to reach the final rung - Only they will have their dreams fulfilled. The extraordinary then build new ladders. These are the strongest people of all.
