C4 Friday night continuity Posted Fri Jul 7 21:46:05 BST 2000 by Justin

Why, thank you Channel 4. Friends, South Park, Frasier, what we really need is crap continuity links by what sounds like Gayle Tuesday. Cheers for that....

Are C4 the only people who think that those hopeless BBC2 Comedy Zone trails are actually worth trying to compete with?

Don't know who that is, I'm afraid. Should I?

& damnit i'm in love with her...so stop insulting her..shame they didn't get inky jones on...

Can some sort of compromise be reached then (ie, could we stop her talking over the end music of South Park and Frasier? Come to think of it, could all announcers stop doing it - composers and performers worked their arses off for 30 seconds of glory, only to be robbed of it by ratings-chasing presentation people)

C5 are the 'worst' for doing this. But I quite like it! It's great to hear a friendly/or not so friendly voice chatting away. Who wants to listen to 30 seconds of music, anyhow?

Unless they've changed things in the last few weeks, she doesn't actually present it. At the beginning of 4Later there is currently a strange cartoon thing and she's one of the characters. But what on io whereC4 doing? There was even a 4Later DOG in the top left corner! Why?

What really was the point?

well you're kinda right...yes ok she doesn't present it in the sense of saying "such & such is on now"...but I think you're referring to the motel..ginger of course now has her own spin-off show...ginger's secrets...

Inky Jones is the name of a real man. He's a comedian.

But he isn't very funny. His opening joke is often: "People say you are what you eat. If this is the case I must eat curly-haired cunt."

Well it must be a very in-in joke as no one even knows who the bugger is! He's a struggling comedian serving out his shit on the circuit.

Maybe it's just a coincidental choice of name...

it's probably just 4later being clever & seeing if anyone notices...which nobody as far as i'm aware did except for you...ah well...

Oh thanks. That makes me feel really good - I'm the only one degenerated enough to be aware of a very mediocre comedy worker who is probably the brother-in-law of a 4later producer.
