If Channel 5 can buy Robot Wars... why can't we have paintball?

[JoseDominguez]

Like it says....... new series of Robot Wars starts on Ch5 next Sunday, they've bought it from bbc2............... so why the hell can't we get any paintball on TV? I mean, honestly, if two souped up wheelchairs tw@tting each other is entertainment then why can't we get something good going?
(Except 3 year old re-runs of mission paintball).

Why don't we make our own TV show? a fly on the wall documentary covering a teams season? all that reality crap is popular now.......so why not?

Jose have you seen the people who are playing paintball nowadays? Whould you really want to see a program with them on it? And a fly on the wall documentry about the goings on with a team. That will be after the water shed then.

nah, a fly on the wall of someone like blakey, who organise the events would be a lot better, and there would be (a few) less shenadigans

Hey if you want to give it a go I'd add a certain class to the voiceover... I have a distinctly monotononous tone which would not distract from the action on-screen

ZZZZZZZzzzzzz Sorry fell asleep there due to the monotononous [are you sure this is the right spelling?] tone.

It is if you're trying to drone...

is it hotpoint that's making me sleepy, or is it the fact that the clocks went back today, so it's really 11:30?

damned daylight savings!
