TGI Friday - 80 Days To Go
« on: March 25, 2015, 05:27:41 PM »
I am not sure what this really is, but Mark is there, so I thought I should share :P

 

Anyone who knows?

Edit: Is it an advertiser for a TV show?

And no more Money For Nothing, by the way. It's confirmed...

Amusing. Though MK would never have been invited on the original TFI Friday.

It's TFI Friday, by the way - not TGIF - and it's said to be due back on our screens in mid-June.

And, by way of relating to the thread about MK's accent, there used to be a fairly regular spot on the programme involving an actor called Ronald Fraser. He was of Scottish parentage and spoke with a Scottish accent but was actually born in England.  In my youth, I can remember going to a pub on Haverstock Hill in London, on a Sunday morning (I think it was the "Sir Richard Steele") when Ronald Fraser, accompanied by another actor whose name I forget, turned up, carrying a bottle of milk. He put the bottle of milk down on the bar counter. The barmaid served him a large vodka, which he then topped up with some of the milk and downed quite quickly. Breakfast, I presume.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, isn´t it?

Great news that Mark will NOT play 'MFN'........ ;D

I know, because it's such a non-chatchy song with no guitar playing and isn't one the public at large will recognise.  :smack

More to the point that it's actually a bit boring now, besides the fact that Mark has a more interesting array of music at his disposal..... :smack

Hilarious, by the way what do you British guys think, Chris Evans is a good substitute for axed Jeremy Clarkson?

In my humble opinion, no one can serve as a substitute for the TG orang-utan. The others said yesterday that they are available as package only. So there will be now TG anymore, I suppose. Unless they get an offer from a private tv channel with a healthy budget.

Yes, the show only works with the team.  Break up the team and the show doesn't work.  I think the rest of the guys may be picked up by Sky or something and join Jezza there.

Chris was asked but ruled it out point blank.

Oh yes, and I couldn't imagine Chris on Top Gear. No - but no, thanks. Despite his interest in classic cars and his temper, this simply wouldn't work.
