Friends Like These

 
Description: BBC1. Game Show presented by Ant and Dec. Friends team up to win a holiday.

Newest Review: ... job of these teams to bay at the contestants in the most graceless fashion possible. Friends Like These is competitive but in a way that makes it a festival of boorish, ill-mannered triumphalism. The saving grace of the last series was the presentation of Ant and Dec who are quite watchable and funny. Alas we have now have Ian Wright who seems to be one of the new faces of BBC1. Like many ... more

 ... signed before him he seems to be a contract looking for a show to use it in. It does seem funny that having launched the BBC Talent initiative the main manifestations of that are that Gary Lineker, Ian Wright and, god knows why, Mark Bright are suddenly TV...more

To describe how much I detest this programme should not take long. This will not be a long review that detains you, dear reader, and you can soon move on to the more commonplace 'This is fantastic, cool etc' review which gives a warm glow. Friends Like These is a hybrid of many shows with a bit of voting out here and a few games there and a prize at the end. All fine so far. What it does also have is an attitude problem. There are a number of rounds and there are more rules than the average viewer can probably fully understand. If you want to know al the nuances of the rules I notice there are other reviewers who have already done so. I will leave that to ...  Read the complete review

I have watched this gameshow on BBC 1 when it was airing ever since it first started in 2000. I am an Ant & Dec fan and them two are so funny! I have also watched repeats of F.L.T on UK TV Gold in past months. I lost interest in this show when Ant & Dec left BBC and no longer presented it, it was taken over by that former footballer Ian Wright, as far as i know Friends Like These is cancelled/ended and as far as I know they don't make the show anymore or it's off production at present but besides that it was a superb show, great entertainment! I liked some of the tasks the contestants had to do such as the ball catching, memory game, hoop throw & colour light ...  Read the complete review

On Saturday nights - because i didn't have a life! i always looked forward to watching friends like these! It was such a great show. For those of you who have never seen it it is about a group of friends, one group men, the other women and they have to compete against each other to win a holiday at the end! The thing that is funny is the constant bickering amongst the two groups, it really does just make you laugh. Some of the people are just so annoying, it makes you vote for the other side! They have to take part in different games in order to gain points to win. Some of the tasks are quite tricky but you always think that you know how to do them. ...  Read the complete review
