Less potentially contentious than the Babylon 5 reboot but Channel 4 have their new "Dominik Diamond" and it's a name everyone should recognise, Rab Florence. I have no idea how well the show will turn out but I've got no complaints over that. |

Absolutely chuffed with that! Immediately turns it into something I'll check out on day 1.

Ooh Rab being involved is a big positive.
When Dominic Diamond was on Richard Herring’s podcast the way he talked about none of the original guys being consulted made me worried it’d be a new Go 8-Bit. Rab is the kind of guy who actually gets games though, not just the average panel show regular going through the motions.

Never got the fuss about Florence on EG. Weren't most of his articles filled with dick jokes?
Shame it's going to be celebrities, although I doubt I'd know any of them anyway

I like Consolevania, videoGaiden and Burnistoun so I’ve got faith in him. Being a celebrity show is a bummer though. Part of the charm of the original is how rough it looks.

If it's celebrities it will definitely be another Go 8 Bit where they pick their 'favourite game' that they haven't got a clue how to play.

Couldn't imagine a better replacement host tbh, Rab is funny as fuck and an insane game geek and even Scottish.
With DD in Canada, what more could you ask for?

Consolevania is great as well, I often find Ryan funnier than Tab though:)

Funnily enough I had a telephone conversation with one of the producers last week — they got in contact to talk about doing a rematch. Sadly the dates don’t line up with our schedules so we can’t do it! It would have been embarrassing to lose a second time. Awks.

Was that actually you? I apologise for criticising your A button tapping technique (but hope it has improved)

Maybe Dave Perry can get his revenge instead He was such a twat. Even more so when he was playing & losing on GM! 😀 Go on craigy, cancel something and take your revenge for all the schoolground trauma at losing. |
