Can that be Tracey MacLeod doing the narration on Reputations? Is there another series of Stab In The Dark in the pipeline?

Speaking of other former Network 7 presenters, I can think of Sebastian Scott (now head of Princess Productions, thanks ever so for dotcomedy, no really), Murray Boland (last seen doing the grippingly useless Club X - Lewis Smith good, though) and Trevor Ward, who other bored people may have noticed does that Channel 5 porn video review. Why don't they get in Tom Paulin and Tony Parsons from Late Review instead?

Can anyone else remember any other Network 7 presenters who are still somehow in regular employment? (In fairness, MacLeod is alright. She upset The Stone Roses for a start. And that's a good thing.)

Funnily enough, I was thinking about 'Stab In The Dark' the other day, because of 'Baddiel&Skinner'. I only saw 1 instalment, but Baddiel was good on it. He did this report where he was interviewing schoolkids to find out what swearwords they knew, or something.

What did Tracey Macleod do during the wilderness years? The crap one (Michael Gove) went back to being a serious political writer for The Times.

Nice to see my red name account works here as well... it can be used to e-mail me.

Baddiel was *very* good on Stab in the Dark - he did a routine about how terrible EastEnders was (it still is of course) discussing the way all the black/asian characters end up getting 'sent back' to Jamaica, Trinidad, Pakistan or wherever. I seem to remember he was the best thing about it, and was stuck in a sort of big wire frame box for some reason...
