The One Show

I found myself turning the TV off.

Go read a book for something actually interesting compared to bland "I love everything" presenters.

This show was enjoyable with Adrian and Christine and all they had to do was talk. Now I will not let anyone even leave it on in the background as they wait for Eastenders.

This is what happens when you have a broadcaster that has guaranteed income regardless of quality.

Move to subscription model now!

The review requires a minimum number of lines and it is unfair on concise people contending with dyslexia. Pad. Pad.

This used to be an entertaining, light hearted magazine show with some good guests and features - Then it fell victim to the moralising box tickers and now constantly pushes social justice till it hurts. There's barely a single item on the programme that doesn't have a bias or preachy underlying message, it's like they are constantly needling the viewer be it through carefully chosen charity appeals or guests selected to push their viewpoint. A party political broadcast for the socially bewildered masquerading as a family show.

Just full of useless crap now with annoying presenters.

Rolling 30 minutes of just about the most prime time airtime in the UK, given to sycophantic, faux adoration and bootlicking of Z list shamelessly plugging their latest tatt all at our expense.

Whilst I agree the One (and only) show is a jack-of-all-trades, I would argue that it is a master one thing: Survival. Great shows - good shows - OK, tolerable shows always land on their feet in times of adversity.

What am I referring to? We all remember Carol Thatcher's disgraceful backstage antics. we can all remember the embarrassing headlines: "Thatcher banished from The'Wog'Show", "once a Thatcher, always a Thatcher". Yet despite her shocking onslaught, the One show kept it's head up, dealt with the situation and now is as healthy as ever. "The One show must go on" springs to mind.

The One show survived Carol Thatcher, it survived Hardeep Singh. Any show that can survive as many assassination attempts as Fidel Castro deserves a place in the hearts and minds of the British viewing public.
