    It’s daft and some of the patter is chronic but I don’t know what * are expecting. This years was better than the last 5 years anyway.

    Barely any football chat in it now.
    At its best it was only about football.
    I thought it was embarrassing last night.

    Not good no in the slightest but had a couple of laughs and I use a couple of laughs loosely as I had a few cans in me at the time so one of they ones .

    Last year was horrendous. They obviously know this and can see they are trying to change it up a bit this time around . Long way from the finished article imo, let’s see what they come up with come December 31st this year .

    It’s become a tradition in Scotland to watch it pre bells I don’t want to see it go full top of the pops:

    Read the comments on here I had low expectations.

    It was much better than I assumed it would be.

    I keep watching it just to see how bad it's getting.

    I liked the virtual walks when the two lassies were getting lifted. Also the Corbyn scarf bit about it being for most occasions but maybe not bar mitzvah's.

    My favourite bit is when it finishes and I can forget about that unfunny * and his * programme for another year.

    Watching it now, not good but I think the cast of actors is better this year.

    As a nation we have this weird habit of using up Hogmanay time watching a show that we know we aren’t going to enjoy.

    The introduction of other actors ( mostly ones you would recognise ) did help it I think . All in all it was not as bad as being made out .
