Just a shame it's only on the radio rather than TV. http://www.guardian.co.uk/tv-and-radio/tvandradioblog/2011/jul/07/old-grey-whistle-test-radio-2 [img]https://news.images.itv.com/image/file/402260/image_update_img.jpg[/img] OFFICIAL FUNDRAISER FOR THE BRAIN TUMOUR CHARITY TOTAL AMOUNT RAISED SINCE AUGUST 2008 £16613.24 LATEST DONATION - FROM DONATION FROM THE FISHY FORUM - AUG 2023 AMOUNT RAISED £170.00

No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.

I think Jules Holland is the only one I like ATM. BTW I dont count MTV or the like as a decent music show.

They dont show any actual music on MTV these days which I find a bit bizzare but yeah definitely room for a decent music show like Later with Jools Holland but earlier on than 1am on a Friday. They should bring back the white room on channel 4,pretty much the same as Later but with Mark Radcliffe. "Lovelly stuff! not my words but the words of Shakin Stevens."

Problem is, as much I like YouTube and the Internet, it has pretty much killed any real form of music tele. That t4 excrement is just topman/topshop wannabe cool tv and people can get to gigs and see gigs easier now. Prices are rocketing though soar be these shows do have a place in music. Jools holland is good but he does have a lot of shite on at times. 'the poor and the needy are selfish and greedy'...well done Mozza
