Charlotte got free tickets to a recording of a new TV show that Rob Beckett (the comedian) is hosting. Miles has had a tough week so dropped out so my Mum joined me, Tash, and Charlotte. I drove and we left after work and got to the car park at Westfield around 6.45pm and were in the queue soon enough.
It was okay and pretty smooth and after a bit of a wait outside, we were allowed into the studio. We had decent seats and got comfy. It was interesting there seeing all the lights set up and that and Charlotte and Mum were in their element.
The warm-up comedian was pretty good and was amusing and then at about 8.00pm the show started - didn't really know what to expect as it was a new show and we quickly found out that we were the recording for the last show of the series.
Rob came on and the guests were really good, Alison Hammond and Josh Widdecombe, and then on their teams were David Tennant, Sara Cox, Roisin Conaty, and Lydia West. There was a lot of talking and not much action or questions - it's amazing how much they have to fill to try and get the material that can be used in the show. The people were interesting and funny and were obviously prepped for a number of the questions but it was funny and enjoyable
We had one break after about 90 minutes and then another segment and another break but this time it was 10.30pm and we thought we'd seen enough here so we decided to make a quick exit and blamed the trains that we needed to catch - even though we'd driven!
Pissing down with rain and the traffic getting out of London was tough because they've got a lot of roadworks set up but we dropped Mum home at midnight so not so bad.
Sadly I didn't meet my 10k step goal today - 9.6k, bit pissed off it the truth be told as I've done it every day since 23rd September. I'll make up for it tomorrow.
A decent evening all told, look forward to seeing the finished article
Oh, and Roisin was the best on the bunch, although Sara was good fun, I liked her.
