The National Lottery: Who Dares Wins
2x03 (27/9/08 edition)
I wouldn't normally watch a Lottery show, but this keeps being on after stuff and I wind up watching bits on mute, so this week I just turned the sound on. The final round, "Films Directed by Steven Spielberg", was bloody easy. I'd've had that £50k no problem.

Mock the Week
6x12 (25/9/08 edition) [season finale]
A highlights/cut bits show to end the series. Still very funny.

Today: 500-450.
