They're having a drum lesson at this time of night? My neighbours will love the sound of that!

Och I'm away to bed. G'night everybody.

it'll be interesting to see what wins - either maturity and determination or youth and fitness.

It'll be the quiet bloke with the teeth; the two loud t0ssers will knacker themselves out soon.

you could be right. it's a shame that 'toothy' (shall we crisain him) (sp)
looks a bit weird, because when he breaks his shyness and speaks he's probably the nicest and most interesting person there.

Definitely - but I suspect he's deliberately choosing to remain quiet at the moment. He is a psychiatrist after all, isn't he, so I'm sure he knows what he's doing.

If he doesn't win, Jimmy seems the 2nd nicest/most interesting. Everyone else left in there is extremely annoying.

PS I suppose it's a stupid question to ask whether you can tune into E4 during a night shift in Isleworth..!

There is no scientific aspect to the programme whatsoever - there is PLENTY of research into sleep deprivation by universities and military institutions. Only a psuedo TV-doctor like David Blaine uses could claim that they are breaking new ground with this programme.

I notice S4C don't have the Travel Inn sponsorships. Anyone know why not all of C4's sponsored programmes have the sponsorship on S4C, and would S4C be allowed to have their own sponsor?

Essentially, do they sponsor the programme or the broadcast?

What I'm wondering is that at 11:35 each night, channel 4 have an hour of live Shattered which is completely live, whereas E4 is 10 minutes behind like Big Bro. I have noticed that on the Channel 4 stuff, as it’s live, anything can be said, where as on E4 10 minutes later, half of the stuff already broadcast live on 4 is edited out on E4 with the sound dipped. If it’s already been said on 4, it makes you think that its pointless E4 covering up the brand names, slander and rude words when the pubic have already heard it.

I wonder why C4 have it live anyway. I would of thought they would have shown the 10 minute delayed feed like E4 do.

I enjoy Shattered but I think I would prefer if it was on for a few weeks with a different set of people a week and the ones that were left with the biggest total go to the final and their winner gets the money

It is intriging. Last night though C4 ran a statement across the screen saying views expressed were not those of C4 or Endemol. Maybe it's not strictly classed as streaming as Dermot is there for the first half and the second half they have a task, so don't have much chance for general slanderous chit chat. Last night though someone said something and Dermot turned round and said "in your opinion". Apparantly there is a fine line between someone saying "Mr X is a ****" and "In my opinion, Mr X is a ****"
