I will happily talk to anyone. You could have had a very sweet little niche romantic film. Very repressed British. And we all would know what broke the spell, or not, and how you both found your eventual true loves. Do you know of a little channel that puts out from the first series, 8 out of 10 cats, without the countdown? Mel is in one episode of the first series, looking so pretty and young - and still so nice.

Mel got unfair comments for her performance at last weeks Eurovision, but she was spot on with this performance on Have I Got News For You.

Haven't laughed so much in a long time. Thank you for sharing this! Mel Giedroyc is so good as a host in whatever she does.

With that whole cake bomb-scare story, I was surprised nobody mentioned that Bake Off had moved to C4...

Once we were appraised of Mel's profound gusto at the Milk Churn, one has to question the wisdom of allowing her such unfettered access to that Lever!

Get Chris back soon. He’s quick witted.

This episode was lighthearted, even silly at times, and thoroughly enjoyable. I am American and did not know the guest host, but liked her quirky style. I also like how the writers tried better than before to provide audio clues for Chris.
