    Can anybody tell me who the female is that is "doing" the quiz - apart from looking a little peculiar she has definitely got a very peculiar accent?

    I never did get a reply so I guess she is not someone well known. I was watching that cookery programme at 12.30 on ITV and I think that was the girl in the This Morning give-away item who was guesting on it. Her name is Amy Childs and seems she comes from a programme called TOWIE - never seen it so obviously I would not recognise anyone from it. A bit of an odd female.

    Gave up watching this programme years ago - since Digital, there are so many more entertaining programmes on at the same time now. From what I remember, the people doing the quizzes on there were always well-known (usually soap actors).

    I would have to be strapped into a chair with electrodes in my eyes to watch TOWIE. It's just an average reality programme aimed at teenage couch potatoes who have little else in their lives....although, apparently, anybody who knows somebody who knows somebody who is in it, is classified as a 'star'..........

    From my understanding TOWIE started off as some unscripted reality show and then as it got more popular it is scripted but wants to appear as non scripted and fails..............make sense ?

    I will never understand why programmes like This Morning employ these awful Chavs like Childs and Katona, who are incapable of speaking correctly, what sort of an example are they setting for kids who think that is the way to speak.

    Then there is Jeff Brazier, best known as the ex of Jade Goody, he also features prominently in these idiotic give away competitions, where in his own words you can win, "fir-ey fusand punds."

    Yes, even the plummy voiced puppet, Joyce (from those Wonga adverts) could do a better job of presenting than the likes of Childs, Katona, and Brazier.

    Old Scoffer has become incredibly pompous since ITV signed him up on that 'golden handcuffs' deal.

    I really liked that film where Waldo Lydecker was the main character - played by Clifton Webb. Instead of these everlasting westerns and war films it would be nice to have some of these other old films. I have forgotten the name of the film but I remember it was about Waldo Lydecker baby-sitting but writing a scandalous book about the neighbours.

    ITV should use the list incident to jettison the whole crappy programme.

    Should happen, but wont.
