Merlot and Gravy (sounds like my typical Sunday dinner) - love it

Perfect combination. ??

I also like Curvy Brides’ Boutique and the Australian version of Nothing to Declare. I have been known to watch My 600 lb Life and am amazed how anyone could get to that size in the first place.

Yes, how do you actually find Turkish dramas on TV?

Search on You Tube for Turkish dramas with English subtitles.

Here is your starter for ten:

Heartbreak, medical drama (I have already watched both the Chinese and Korean versions, but this is the best version).
My left Side
Island Tale etc, etc.

Oh Merlot that just reminded me.

I thought I had kept my what a complete Dick phrases quiet whilst youngest was in car seat in the back.

One day they came out with Mummy knows lots of drivers, they are all called Dick.

Hello!

Others say ‘guilty pleasures’, but I’m of the belief that no pleasure should be guilty; unless you’re talking along the lines of crack cocaine or casual violence.

My recently discovered rubbish de jour is Curvy Brides Boutique.

I used to love Celebrity Big Brother.
The fourth series with Pete Burns, George Galloway, Preston and Chantelle was absolute perfection.
I don’t think that I’ve enjoyed anything on TV more.

So, with Curvy Brides Boutique, I realise that I have set the bar rather low.

DH rather enjoys those ridiculous programs featuring members of the British police making absolute dipsticks of themselves.

What daft stuff do you enjoy?
Thank you

I taught a yr 7 girl who told me she couldn’t watch a TV programme we were discussing because her Dad was watching Police, Camera, Dickhead! ?

There’s an Irish programme called Stop, Search, Seize - very similar to Border Patrol Australia - love that one.

Got to say a lot of the programmes mentioned so far don’t fit into my ‘rubbish’ viewing. ?

Bargain Loving Brits in the Sun

Love it!

Thanks to those who mentioned House Doctor, I must look for it and set it to record. I used to admire Alastair Appleton's patience and have liked him ever since!

Perhaps I should have said I don’t watch and never have watched any of these programmes. I seem to have prompted a confession by Grandyma.

Nothing to Declare Australia!!
Escape to the Country
Flog It

Good grief! I have nothing to declare. ?

Correct. Well done, Fanny

Taskmaster. Best rubbish on tv!

A : Rula Lenska and George Galloway

Fanny wrote I think CBB 4 could be my Mastermind subject.

Very well.

Who took part is the simulation of the cat drinking?

Married At First Sight Australia - unmissable!

My current go-to for bliss and joy is "Secrets of the London Underground" on Yesterday: the Tube was such a part of my life growing up and starting work, I love this programme and the enthusiasm of the presenters.

I've recently become addicted to Judge Judy.....?

OK my comfort watching (which are probably all rubbish according to someone)

Father Brown
Shakespeare & Hathaway
Mallorca Files
Agatha Raisin
Escape to the Country

Say yes to the dress.
Houses under the hammer.
Early hours reruns of house doctor!!
Dont tell the bride.
And that one were one of a couple has to buy a house for them ?

Yes, SD it was Maggot of the joke band Goldie Lookin’ Chain, who gallantly took last place.
He was a nice chap.

I think CBB 4 could be my Mastermind subject.

The glamour model Jodie Marsh was subject to some terrible misogynistic bullying by Barrymore and chums. It was far worse than the Shilpa Shetty business, but I suppose she was treated as fair game.

Galaxy I too watch The House Doctor early mornings - Ch5 I think. It’s really old fashioned now, but the basic idea of de-clutter and neutralize decor to sell still makes sense.

We like Place in the sun and Four in a Bed.
I love if I’m on my own My 600lb life and as NotSpaghetti says Ice Road Truckers.

I remember that Chantelle had a mission to be believed to be a celebrity.

It was interesting how that was assessed.

The people were given a task that the eleven of them were to go and stand in order of their celebrity status and had some fairly short time to do it in.

Some of them started discussing amongst themselves who was a bigger celebrity than who and then one young man pointed out that the key thing was that everybody was lined up within the time allowed and went and stood at the place for the person with the least celebrity status. The others realised that he was right, just get in line before the time for the task ran out. Thus Chantelle was not last in the line, so was deemed to have achieved celebrity status and allowed to stay.

Ah I love House Doctor it's on at about 5am when I cant sleep.
