Sue Perkins wants to show you her massive gusher

Very good leopard

I'd rather watch the Queen's speech on loop.

I like virtually any travel programme but the beeb really are testing me getting this monstrosity to present it.

TY....Rob

Could be worse rob, it could have been Clare Balding the Beeb sent instead. I like all travel programmes as well, The Lonely Planet was a favourite when presented by Ian Wright.

BBC have over-exposed Sue....don't watch Bake Off so has not affected me.

5 minutes would have been over-exposure. I like 'monstrosity.' I even prefer the ubiquitous Balding!

I would

G2D (quick hijack: I bumped an old thread on hoss racing about 'that' photo of Pendil, which you replied to many moons ago. Still no joy!)

You should be banned for ever or even longer for that heading Leopard.
I feel sick.

I forgot to ask you g2d, I take it you bet the b

I forgot to ask you g2d, I take it you bet the b

Eh?

Bloody laptop. ..you bet the big price Ireland were against the Boks?

Och aye wee man..

Didnae you?

Mikky: is it lost? As i said early in that fred i hadn't seen it for years, but did have a scrapbook when i was a nipper and 'that' pic was innit, pretty sure i got it out of the Sporting Chron..

Dunno G2D, but this was from the thread...

Is it not the photo of pendil on the same link above, 4 photos from the bottom ?

Tis a long time since I saw the Byrne pic, WFT, but I'm fairly sure that that pic that you, me and seaview have all linked, is NOT it. The one comment on that page would suggest as much also...

Some great photos evoking great memories (well mostly).

Still looking for Ed Byrne’s photo of you and Pendil. Definitely an iconic phot but seemingly lost. I had a copy of it (very small) in an old Haig Handicap Annual but alas that is lost too.

Pendil….still love the horse.

I must be honest g2d and admit that I ducked the outright price and did them on the handicap. As good as Ireland were it was a very messy performance by S.A. littered with mistakes and giving away silly penalties. Still, it was a very pleasing game to watch and we totally deserved the thumping win.

Anyway, back to Sue Perkins..I stuck with it as Dallas were long beyond recall but she is extremely unconvincing to me as a presenter and lacking in any tangible charisma.

I still would

Ah there you go Mikky. Had to be a reason for it not being about anywhere.

Ed is still about i believe, so if i ever bump into him again on course i will ask for a copy (if he has one hidden away) - just for your good self..

Good man, yerself!

Not particularly relevant in the scheme of things, but good programme imo. The lady did rather well, I thought.

Don't like Perkins at all, don't mind Balding at all.

Perkins is alright, Balding is Ramsey in drag.

dont like the pick someone on tv and send them some place stuff thats all the rage.

No passion, no knowledge of the subject, cant even speak locals language. Travel TV for people who never leave the UK

They should have had jasmine harman or julia bradbury presenting rather than some unfkable hag

Really impressed pawras you've summed her up beautifully in only two words.

I miss her wonderful sitcom ,which for me was up there with Dads Army ,Porridge and All Of Me.

...Yeah, UH-TV - if this was on a subscription channel it would get about 2,000 viewers, but thanks to the BBC we're forced to pay for it.

Only the weak are forced to pay for it.

Is she a relation of Dorothy?

Agreed. Well done for posting a sensible post amongst the usual disgusting dross

Crisp

I was supposed to have recorded this for Mr Makybe but I forgot

I will tell him I did set the recorder but it must have malfunctioned.

He falls for this everytime I firget to record anything for him

Surely he can watch the iPlayer on your iPad

He has his own iPad, Crisp.

Not the same as watching it on the TV, tho'.

Anyway, I've just found a repeat later in the week.

He can't stand Sue Perkins but the programme looks so good he's just going to have to put up with her.

Our favourite travel presenter is Simon Reeve

Btw, Sue Perkins was great in the early days of Mel and Sue. I don't know what happened to her

Even Facts might disagree with that MD!

Pendil came back after a long time out and won a three horse race at 10/1, iirc.

And your comparing that to Sue Perkins coming out of the wilderness to score a huge hit with The Great British Bake Off

Sue or no Sue..it was still well worth watching.

I've been to Vietnam and can't recommend it enough.Cambodia looks a definite for the Bucket List

Watching this now.

On again in a minute.  I shall watch again.  It was quite good last week and Sue Perkins wasnt so bad, though she is naturally irritating.

TY Rob....I quite like her.

Pendil is better looking.

She was surprisingly ok at presenting this. It was very good.

We are recording  it as Mr Makybe is watching Guy Martin at the moment.

I want to go to Cambodia

Watching the second one of these at the moment.

Sue is at a wildlife rescue centre. I'm liking her more and more.

Animal rescue team about to make a bust on a local restaurant.

I might wish I wasn't watching this.

Grim

That was supposed to be

ThIs is better. Some rescued animals about to be released back into the wild.

Aww

I'm now a fan of Sue Perkins

Sue and the hermit getting along famously.

I could live his life.

He has a mobile phone

Sue is suffering from a terrible sore throat and cold. it's a shame.

Sue is an excellent presenter.

The people she meets warm to her instantly.

Brilliant programme. Highly recommended.

Well it's been lovely chatting with you.

Night night

This has been very good again, tonight.

I agree.

She is useless. So unfunny it's untrue.

It's not a comedy

Bump.

Brilliant filming of the farming in the snow.

This has been the best one yet.

Right thread

Sue has learnt a lot of lessons about life doing this series.

Lessons that I learnt a long time ago.

Bake off filled 8 out of 10 places in most watched tv progs of 2015 ffs.

That's probably because it was one of the only few multicultural programmes on TV this year.

Sue's girlfriend Anna Richardson reported to be fronting ITV Bake Off

This thread should not be bumped unless you have THAT pic of Pendil!

GBBO Gingerbread edition.....contestant makes ginger brown house with carpet. Mel: Right then, who wants to munch on some carpet?

Part 2 ... The Ganges

;) ....smileys have gone

I quite like Sue Perkins presenting style, she comes across as being amicable and intelligent. She lives near me, somewhere in Dulwich, Lordship Lane I think or thereabouts.

Varanasi......appalling !

River is an open sewer !

Aye, but charming if you ignore the filth and smell, and don't mind **** on the ceiling for a week or two.
