Was Beadle dropped or did he leave on his own accord? Did Lisa Riley take over from Beadle? Questions questions eh!


Beadle asked for a lot more money to host the show, which had been falling in popularity for a while. ITV refused, Beadle left, ITV brought in Lisa Riley and the show's ratings shot back up again.

According to Harrys website, TV Burp is returning for 6 weeks from 30th October. The show seems to suffer from odd scheduling however, and if Harry is to be beleived, it's going out at 5.30pm on a Saturday !

I really hope it isn't 5.30pm, that's the flipping graveyard slot to start off with, it needs to be on in Prime Time, 10pm being the best time for it, plus it won't be able to get away some adult material, they rarely did it when it was on at 11pm.

I feel sorry for poor Harry as the show has constantly been moved about it, to as Harry puts it as 'Crazy times', the first two series were on at 10.30pm, but due to the News, Series 3 was on at 11pm and Series 4 at 5.30pm on a Saturday, they have to be kidding?!?!? I hope there's an ITV2 repeat or something as I'm in work at that time! Laughing

Looking foward to An Audience With..., I haven't seen much of Harry's work that isn't TV Burp, but it looks good.

I found the 1st and 2nd series of TV Burp hilarious and I just hope the new series format hasn't got tired. As for YBF I would watch it every so often with Lisa Riley but that irritating Jonathon Wilkes with his stupid catchphrase excrutiating to watch. The whole set thing never done it for me, just a voiceover is much better.

Well, watching YBF this evening, and have to say without the inane studio ramblings of Jonathan Wilkes or Lisa Riley, it's a VAST improvement.

Harry's voiceovers are hilarious, funnier than the most of the clips, personally speaking, it works much better.

I think this new format for YBF is great - just enough Harry Hill comment but the audience laughter is still a bit annoying!

I watched it today, and it convinced me to send some of my footage in. It will probabally be the first clip they've had that's actually in 16:9!
