    Anyone watch it?


    A slightly different slant on the days events at the Paralympics.

    Has its moments.

    Yeah, I like it. If BBC had got Paralympics I doubt it would be on there though, too non PC for them.

    Yeah. Popular in our house. It was quite near the knuckle to start with but ideas seem to be drying up a bit. As you say, though, has its moments.

    I like it. I've been critical of the coverage in general (not a patch on BBC), but that programme has done a good job in breaking down a few barriers and getting past the nervousness about disability.

    Yes watched them all some classic moments - as mentioned above running out of ideas a little but still well worth a watch - loving the "is it OK to ask a disabled person...." section
    some good interviews and a good summary of the days events in the more serious bits.

    Will miss it next week

    My fave "is it ok"


    "Is it ok to hit a disabled person if he is acting like a knob?"

    I like Adam Hills the Aussie presenter and this show has been funny. Its not been a pis* take, its been a mix of funny and interesting comments about the days events.

    And would you believe it, even Claire Balding has impressed me with her sporting knowledge and presenting despite the fact that she looks like the back end of Eddie Izzard's bus.
