Have they dumbed it down? And, does that dealer look like Tamara Beckwith or, is it her??

I loved Four Rooms when it was on in the evening. It does seem like they've dumbed it down Sad.

It has changed for the worse Sad. There's a lot more polyfiller.

However, I turn the sound off for the new idiot-level mini-lectures from the Presenter with her annoying flat vowels. She also now seems to have some kind of social worker manager role with the sellers, Blush for them.

Anyway, there have been some great moments! The dealers are often real "one-offs", interesting characters, and natural entertainers, with a sense of humour shall we say on the wry side. Sometimes edge-of-the-seat serious, then funny.

Watching it again (it was one of my favourite programmes) I feel that its been ruined by the non-stop inane commentary by the Presenter (that thinks its very clever for some reason Hmm) and dragging every thing out. I think one of the reasons I really originally enjoyed the programme so much was because of the gaps. They left you to fill in them in with your own thoughts and there was a certain charming mystery about it all.

Oh well Sad!
