Farage & Russell Brand

I am like you Iam64. I watch programmes that I wouldnt normally watch beacuse of younger family members.
I have been subjected to gogglebox, 24 hours in A&E, Made in Chelsea, and Match of the Day.
Not seen the Steph and Dom programme yet. I get very behind with tv watching.

annodomini, I confess to having watched one and a half of the Gogglebox series. So many family and friends love it and one of the children (!) was here a couple of weeks ago, so I watched with her. It is entertaining, that's the most positive thing I can say. The camera watches several families or couples watching tv in their homes. The participants are a varied bunch and the way they watch tv together is so like what happens in many homes

I did actually say what it was in my post of 16.50, anno.

Never heard of Steph and Don; and what is Gogglebox?

An utterly pointless programme.

Well, I have heard of Nigel Farage

No, wasn't having you on, have never heard of them!

I was puzzling and thinking it was odd, DH is always on about Steph on Breakfast telly but I didn't think it could possibly be her and Fake Britain Dom!!

rosequartz! Are you having us on?

Seriously, Dom and Steph appear on Gogglebox on Channel 4 which is about ordinary people watching tv programmes and commenting on them as they do so.

Steph and Dom run/ran an upmarket B&B and had previously appeared in another Channel 4 reality show, Four in a Bed.

I'm not sure what the point of last night's programme was. Everyone drank a lot, Steph is a hopeless actress and kept fluffing her ad-libs and the two men, Nige and Dom, found themselves and each other so funny that all they did was loudly bray with laughter...

their lovely house and garden and all the staff

No, it can't be them, I cannot imagine them as a pair.

But we do not, and should not feel we have to disclose anything to anyone. Quite right Ariadne, unless we wish to.
And your post about Steph and Dom - I think that's the girl who does the BBC Breakfast business slot, but why was she drinking, possibly with Dom Littlewood, who presents 'Fake Britain'? Totally

Personally I don't think Farage watchable at any time.....

Ariadne, I am so glad YOU've asked the question- didn't dare ;)

Um - feeling daft - who are Steph and Dom?

I read somewhere (RT I think) that Farage felt like a lightweight in the drinks department compared to Steph and Dom. I couldn't take my eyes off their lovely house and garden and all the staff.

I would have loved to have seen their appearance on Four in a Bed. I hope it gets repeated.

Not your average B&B is it?

Yes, what a bunch of drinkers they are! Farage looked very uncomfortable when asked about his first marriage.

Yes, I was a bit disappointed but never the less I like Steph and Dom.

I thought it would be politics light but not to that degree.

Anybody see Steph and Dom (from Gogglebox) meets Nigel Farage last night?

Not sure there was any point to it but it was quite watchable.

Our votes are our own business, our politics in general terms may display as Left, Middle, Right or UKIP, BNP and co. and if people care to make assumptions about our voting preferences then that is up to them. But we do not, and should not feel we have to disclose anything to anyone.

He's not a one trick pony. He has lots of tricks, but that's all they are.

I keep asking myself whether Farage is a one trick pony.
I dont think that he is anymore.

fills me, sorry. Why has GN not got a 'correct' function?

I also only just watched the programme today. I got the impression that RB was out of his depth. Farage is a one trick pony. The journalist made the most sense (as others have said).

Come on, magpie. Are you not asking all the others who they are voting for? Don't single me out.

One more with you all the way. Tory / Ukip coalition feels me with terror.

Iam64 - Completely agree with you. Never have, never could, vote Tory, but Ukip is anathema.
