h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

An odd thing happened the other day. I never watch Points of View on TV, but we were flicking through the channels when we flicked onto it for no more than five seconds. In that time, we saw a comment left by an 'AgProv' being read out from a BBC messageboard. I presume that was you - hope you caught it! The only odd thing is that it was read out in a female voice, if I remember correctly...

Well I'll be plucked...(from the obscurity of the BBC TV messageboard to brief stardom on Points of View)

I contribute to the Points of View boards but I never suspected the BBC actually did anything constructive and useful like READ them, still less used them on the programme... I've always seen it as a means of letting off stema with like-minded folk about how generally diabolical/mediocre/ocassionally praiseworthy the BBc's television output is...

You wouldn't have noticed what it was about, would you, as I post quite a bit on PoV?

The Points of View messageboard for Television is here:-

I'm all over the place on this one, my little pearls of wisdom/ great gouts of blather are all over ("How to Look Good Naked", "BBC News", "The Goodies", et c)

Did you post something about a history of music show? It might have been about Hendrix not being the start of rock music; if that wasn't you I'm pretty much it was about the same show, whatever it was. Sorry to be so vague, but I wasn't really watching - hope this helps jog the memory!
