Who Do You Think You Are

[poodicat]

On bbc 1 tonight at 9pm and its bruce forsyth this week,will you be watching?

[craft1948]

I'm recording it as Identity is on the other side....

[askyourgran]

Yes I thought I'd have a look at that, although they put a spread about it in the Mail on Saturday.

[poodicat]

Yep amg,wasnt his grandfather a bigamist?

[ethandron]

yep. brucie annoys me and entertains me in equal parts. am recording 2 other things at the same time though, as backup, just in case..

[poodicat]

Dont have the recording thingy,i could watch it on i player,but i think i will just watch it tonight

[ethandron]

the recording thingy is the most foolproof, easy to use gadget i have ever had the pleasure to use. can't remember what it's called but it's a slim box that sits under the telly and i just point a whatsit at it, press a couple of things and job done. worth it's weight in gold. get one poodi, you know you'll love it :)

[poodicat]

Have you got sky ethandron?

[ethandron]

no, we have freeview on our telly and the box is called a pvr. it's magic, wonderful, marvelous. i record all kinds of things so that when there's cr@b on the tv, there's always something interesting to watch.

[poodicat]

How much did you pay for it?

[spudqueen]

I'll be recording it on my hard disk freeview box. We can record two things at once, or watch one side whilst recording another. And you can set it to record a whole series (which is what I've done with Who Do You Think You Are). It's marvellous!

[ethandron]

can't remember the exact price, maybe £199 or something like that two years ago. worth every penny though. no fiddling with trying to set things up to record. only downside is you can't record things for other people as there's no tapes or dvd, it's all stored in the pvr box, like a computer. i am sooo not good with electrical stuff but even i can use this thing. GET ONE! :)

[poodicat]

Quite pricy,where did you buy yours?

[chrissa1]

I can't see the point in watching it. We've heard everything about it already. I think it would have been interesting if, as in the past you "watched" a programme to find out what it was about.

[Everhelpful]

Would rather pull my teeth out with a pair of pliers than watch it.!!

[poodicat]

Bash on then lol...

[Everhelpful]

I would if I had any!!

[ethandron]

got it in currys or comet. currently they're £170.

[mr-rubix]

Have any of you been to the "Who do you think you are" exhibitions at Kensington Olympia?

If so how was it?

[joanne]

Like spud queen we have the recorder,it will record two programmes, and we can watch an earlier recording at the same time.We got it from ASDA a lot cheaper.

I can record 2 different programmes at the same time and watch another programme.
