essential Friday night viewing

Central Weekend was a popular show to watch when getting home from the pub on a Friday night.it was compulsive viewing, and always had opposing views, represented by often extreme guests and audiences. the presenters were excellent at judging the mood of the audience, and playing the guests like musical instruments. the guests often needed careful handling due to their extreme views, and it's a wonder i never got to read of them suffering more than verbal abuse from their fellow guests or audience members. the show always ended on a Humorous note, which is a good thing, on account of its wind up factor. classic viewing!
