Thank you for starting this, Beth. I was hunting for a thread this week. I'm missing Richard, but rather liking Sally. I also like Stephen Mangan, who I heard is going to be on it. I shall now check your list up there

Yes, I caught Sally doing it yesterday. Seemed ok. She's filled for Warrick Davis on Tenable before. Didn't really like her on that, but I think that is all rather scripted (don't think Warrick does much of a job either) so it will be nice to see how she gets on in this. I like all the others and think they'll be good, but I don't know Ed Gamble, so will have to wait and see about him.

Richard is still doing the Saturday Celebrity show which is good!

I like Tenable and (in general), I like Warwick. But I think he’s about the worst quiz show presenter on television - so wooden.
I didn’t like Sally on Pointless at first, she came across as too fangirly. But she could have just been nervous, as she has relaxed through the week.
I’m looking forward to Stephen Mangan.

Oh yes, I like Warwick too. As you say though, he's very wooden as a presenter (probably the word I was looking for myself).

No doubt many will complain about the lack of Richard but what is the alternative - stop the programmes? I think the rotation system will work well. Sally was clearly nervous but she began to relax as the week went on.
Do they do one week of shows each?

Looking on I player it lists up to no 13 with Sally, later ones not yet listed. Think series is 55 episodes or thereabouts so either some get very few outings, or not till next series.

I too am getting used to Sally. There's not the rapport that Richard and Xander had, but that's to be expected. Alex Brooker should be fun. He does The Last Leg on c4.

How good does Mangan look now he is a silver fox?
The programme has carried on without Richard which I am sure is what HE wanted.
No big fuss for his last programme either. Effortless hand over.

I really liked how Sally fitted in and I am very happy with Stephen Mangan. I've fancied him since I first saw him in Green Wing. My ex husband messaged me one night to tell me he was standing right next to him in a pub in London. I so wanted a photo, but ex wouldn't do that.

I think Zander (Xander?) has a very similar chemistry with Stephen and Richard. I like him a lot.
