Wind up Tikay on TV opportunity - unmissable!

[Robert HM]

Hope he doesn't check out "suzanne's" email address or I am in big s**t

 

At least I didn't ask him what you wanted me to, that would have been to much

[londonpokergirl]

It'll be repeated 3 times today.

A quick "thank you" to all the blondes who helped me through this ordeal by sending in e-Mails to the show - that really DID help.

What time's it repeated? - I'm down at the Old Dear's tonight & they've sky.... (I've only got Council Telly).

i just asked what it was like playing poker with wild bill hitchcock

I have to see this!

[Indestructable]

Don't believe it I had my question about how to play big slick. Tikay gave sound advice and then went on to take part in "Beat the Presenter". As soon as he had Big slick he was all in and out. Sorry Tikay my fault for raising this question which proved to be the kiss of death.
Good show though and looking forward to next week.

Believe it or not, Tom Sambrook was whooshed by this, said to me "who's Bill Hitchcock?"......

But to be fair to him, he'd not experienced Iron's spelling before......

Yes, the irony of that was not lost on me! 6th of 8, the shame.....

I watched the show this norning when it was repeated. Vain? No, not at all. If I do summat, I wanna do it properly, so it was "pick myself to pieces" time. Plenty to work on, from what I saw too!

"Fiddlng" with my hands, playing with my specs, too many "errs", forgetting to look at "my" camera when addressing the viewers (which is the OPPOSITE of what I have to do on Poker 425, where the rule is, NEVER look at the camera), & even, once, yawning while in shot. Oops......

Ah well, at least I know I can do better, and as long as I do my best, it is what it is. If anyone has any positive criticism - no matter how hurtful it may seem - I'd be grateful if you let me know. If you'd prefer to do it by PM, fine. Thing is, I feel I'm representing blonde when I'm on PNL, & I had full clearance from the Producer peeps to mention blonde as much as I wished, within reason. So you'd be helping the "blonde" Profile if you point out the weaknesses. Not too many, mind.....

Oh, & the last thing - all those e-mails from the blondes were just the ticket. The techies in the gallery feel they enhanced the show, so a big up to you all, & more of the same next week please, when the Presenter will be Lynsay, who sounds a nice chap by all accounts.

The show was a great laugh with all the banter via email. Tom S seemed somewhat non-plussed by it all and even felt the comments were a bit OTT, e.g. the B&Q quip, he ought to come on here and see what stick you really get. Well done it added some much needed humour to the show.

He didn't know who he was??? Shocking! You gotta love the old road-suspense authers from the wild west!

I thought they made a good pairing in the traditional funny man/straight man kinda way.

Yes, I actually felt a little sorry for Tom at first, but he soon "clicked" on to my style, which I can't really change. I promised them I would be myslf, no more, no less, so it's what's on the tin. The crucial test comes today when The Big Suit reviews the prog.

By the by, in chatting with Tom "off air" about 425 (a "do not mention on camera" area, obviously, as the two progs run at the same time), I mentioned that I'd just interviewed Roland de Wolfe for 425, & he told me that Roland was one of the first ever commentators ever on PNL. What a difference a year makes!

I enjoyed what i saw of it, didn't catch the first couple of hours.
One thing i would like to point out is the way you would take your glasses off and then squint at the monitor next to you, just KEEP THEM ON!!!

And which one did you think was the straight man?......

I gave Tom a bit of stick for suggesting that Tank was Welsh, by the way.
