New shows on itv. Are you joking. Its a rip of of BGT. It is a very very cheep show to make and clogs the schedules. Give us a new drama that does NOT INCLUDE EX SOAP ACTORS HOGGING THE ROLES. When many of our hit tv dramas begun they had good stories acted bu unknowns and we loved them. Nowadays LAZY PRODUCERS AND CASTING DIRECTORS clogg our dramas up with duff ex soap stars who play the same character,but with a different name. When will producers and casting directors realise we do not want to watch a drama with him from Corrie in or her from Hollyoaks or him from Emmerdale in...It distracts us from the story and the drama. There must be 30,000 actors capable of these acting jobs but lazy producers and casting director ( particularly on northern cast dramas) use the same faces week in week out and we are bored rigid. NEW FACES IN TV DRAMAS. NOT EX SOAP STARS.

What a dissaster for Lets Get Gold. Beaten by the pensioners. The sad fact is people like Rio Ferdinand have no appeal for television viewers. His ego and treatment of women in the past have made him a hate figure with mothers and girls and families switch over the tv when he comes on. Sadly lots of PR Hype keep this man in the public eye and producers think he is a marketable product. Well believe me my family and friends groan when his name is mentioned on tv and none of us would waste a second watching him as a judge or presenter on tv. A very unlikeable character. Its time TV producers took notice of viewers and low ratings and not his PR hype. WE DO NOT WANT RIO FERDINAND ON OUR TV SCRENES.HE IS NOT LIKED BY FAMILIES OR WOMEN VIEWERS.
