top of the wops

Advantages: this is a very good program if you are interested in music
Disadvantages: there should be more new bands

this is a good program but there should be more new bands on it so it gives them a Chan's in the industry at the moment it seems to me that they dot get hared and some of thees bands are rely good so give them a chance to show what they can do but i do really like this program and i think it should continue after all these years it is still brings in the young and old alike it shows the kind of music that people are binge within the general population ...

Review of BBC1: Top of the Pops

It's OUR Time!

Advantages: entertaining
Disadvantages: no Terry Wogam

This years song contest will be the 54th, taking place on the 16th May I know I've got my seat prepared, all set to watch it. Nobody, and I mean nobody is going to stop me from watching this great musically entertaining show. OK, so I may be going over the top a bit here, but seriously when it comes to laughing at other people, this is a great and most definetly acceptable way of doing it! Officially the last time the UK won the Eurovision Song Contest ...
...with the tuneful Love Shine a Light. I've actually done my research and I can safely say that with a staggering 227 points, I think we did rather well! Random fact, that year Ireland came second. It's been 12 years now since we last won it and I'm sorry to say I don't think we we'll be getting the top spot anytime soon. It doesn't matter that we've got Andrew Lloyd Webber on hand and that they've changed the voting methods, it's still going to be ...

Film 2001-A Ross Odessey

Advantages: good scathing reviews, good preview features
Disadvantages: on too late, too short

I have to be honest I'd never really see Johnathan Ross as a film critic altough I've been told that at one time he was rumoured to have the biggest film collection in the country. For the first couple of series of the Film show I felt that Ross was a bit harsh on some films and didn't see them as they were meant to be intended. However I've also come to realize that every critics opinion is their own and no one elses so sometimes we won't agree ...
...only been around for a few weeks so far but already Ross seems like he's now settled in. His work on some other BBC comedy shows seems to have crossed over. I've found myself laughing quite hard with some of the comments he put's in his reviews. He doesn't mix his words and while he points put some fair things in the bad films he normally reserves the final putdown till the very end. The show also devotes a good amount of time to future releases ...

Review of BBC1: Film 2000

Feeling the Strine.

Advantages: Some things are so bad they're almost good.
Disadvantages: But I'm not so sure in this case.

...made its appearance. This was Rolf Harris at the Royal Albert Hall, and was billed as a celebration of the hirsute Antipodean’s fifty years on TV. I must say here and now that I did not elect to see this spectacle voluntarily. I had popped into the house of some neighbours just before it started, and they asked me to stay. To begin with (and to continue with and to end with, since the torment was continuous) it was mostly Rolf singing. It was abysmal, ...
...you’d have really to love Rolf to buy a ticket to the show at all. In the front row sat three strange looking people in Rolf wigs, beards and glasses, but whether this was a tribute to the performer or an silent severe philippic upon him never became clear. Rolf was on stage for the whole hour and a half. Two things rapidly became apparent. He has appalling taste in clothes, and he has an ego the size of Tasy. He wore a shirt which was exactly like ...

Review of Rolf Harris at the Royal Albert Hall

Power to the People?

Advantages: Not just about the big name stars
Disadvantages: Without big names you don't have much left

...award ceremonies nowadays, only the MOBO Awards aren't one that include the abreviation 'MTV' in the title. To celebrate British music everyone knows we have the Brits, but we also have the MOBO's celebrating the best of urban music.. or more accurately the awards are designed to reward music of black origin for excelling in the particular twelve month period, in this case 2007. America have awards such as the Grammy's and more recently, BET awards, ...
...So lets hope the MOBO Awards 2007 won't be a night of video acceptance speeches. Now it's hard to remember anything of importance that really happened at this ceremony, because there certainly was no big Britney Spears disaster performance. 50 Cent had originally been in the line up to perform, however as this was planned around the same time as 50 Cent lost around the world to Kanye West in album sales, he pulled out. The big performance of the ...
