The place where everyone hangs out, chats, gossips, and argues

I know it's been done before on the BBC Online Entertainment pages, but I was just been browsing Chris's R1 site for pics and stuff to put in today's review, when I spotted the new "running order" page.

Go here and check out the links part in the bottom right corner.

It seems a permanent link has been set up to this site. Prepare for the influx on the board...

That page is messed up in Firefox. I was sat waiting for something to happen untill I noticed i had to scroll right down the page to see it.

Thought the BBC would support web standards..tut :roll:

It's nice of them to provide a link to the reviews page an all that but surely summats up when the unofficial review is more accurate than their "show running order".

According to this todays Tedious Link was Good Stuff by Kelis when it was in fact Wild Thing by Tone Loc.

Get your facts right beeb for bleedin sake...

Well at least the site is updated sometimes now. Most of the stuff on there is quite good. The running order is more concise so the two work together.

Maybe MC is Uglybob. Hmm, just a thought.

Well I can put an end to these thoughts then and confirm that I am neither the new or the actual Mr Uglybob.

All I did was point out a mistake on the R1 site anyway, so that it could be changed. I never once said I wasn't grateful for them linking to the reviews page. Hardly what I would call bullying....more like assisting.

MC, face it, you are quickly becoming the new uglybob. you do reviews (almost religiously), you nit pick, you can be somewhat crotchety. it's nothing bad.

Now all he needs to do is to buy the Now back catalogue and read the Guiness Hit Singles every night before he goes to bed to memorise it.

Also isn't Dave's quiz called Reverse-a-Word not Reverse Words?

I listen to the show everyday but still read the reviews. Keep it up MC.

I don't think I've ever read the reviews. Even when I wrote them I didn't really read them properly. You could probably tell.

Not that the reviews are a bad thing or anything. Keep up the good work MC.

listening to NOW cds and doing the reviews aren't a bad thing at all. the reviews are a nice and loving testament to a show you obviously love. to deny the obvious similarities between yourself and the one and only uglybob is unnecessary. it was a casual observation.
