Advantages: It's over

Disadvantages: Everything

Whoooo!!!

(Long pause for breath while I finally pluck up the courage to go for it - must remember that when you literally spill over with bile it turnns people off right away, try and say something, anything, good about this show - go on, you can - ULP! Can't think of anything - quick take another breath!)

Ermmm...

(Breath is coming in little jerky gulps now, and I'm feeling the pressure - I've turned my face away from the TV set, but I know I need to turn it back any moment now, but I know what will happen if I do - THE DEMON will bound on to the set with "HELLOOOO there!" - I think I'm about to pass out)

GULP!

(NO, I've got to do it, brace yourself and don't panic!)

Supermarket Sweep is CRAP!

(Oh God! dave27 you lost it, didn't you? Now they know. Quick, they might have missed it, bluff.)

Absolute Crap!

(Okay, you're on your own...)

Dale Winton has been responsible for some of the worst television ever - he's had the National Lottery and can you remember Pets Win Prizes! Total, abject pitsville!

But without doubt the worst thing that he's been involved with is this totally naff daytime TV quiz programme, where three couples have to mix answering questions with shopping ability in order to win the big (well, quite mediocre, actually) prize.

From the very first introductions (did you notice where they all say "Yes, Dale" to every question, like brainwashed zombies, recounting some form of religious mantra through grittily clenched teeth) through the naff elimination and that massive climax where they're trying to piece together the nursery rhyme clues to win the big prize, this show has TOTAL AND ABSOLUTE GARBAGE plastered implicitly all over it and that very naff man bounces around with his camp chat, fey mannerisms and godawful Tin Tin haircut. makes my blood boil it does, Mrs D...
r>(Don't bring me into this, I quite like Dale...)

WHAAAT? When did you get a lobotomy?

(Well, he's very nice to the guests and he does lots of good work for chariddee...)

Yeah, that's as may be, but he's totally naff.

(Oh yeah, I forgot)

Supermarket Sweep - cheap and nasty daytime TV quiz show - played by the sort of people who appear regularly on Family Fortunes - the ones who when asked, "Name something you would see in a Chines restaurant," would say "A dragon"!!!!!!


Where do they get them from? Is there a secret working class estate somewhere that breeds these plebs in order to plague our waking hours?

Ther is a time and place for this sort of thing - it's about three in the morning and it's in Wisconsin.

DO NOT WATCH for fear of having to marry your sister.

(PS I don't much care for this...)
