There's a number of shows where the title sequence shows the presenter travelling to the studio, and arriving as the show starts. So I thought: how far back in the day should you go? Waking up? Taking a dump? cleaning up the sick from the heavy night before? Knocking one out in the shower? Moaning like hell about having to drag your arse into work again, and how the boss is a complete c**t? Driving to work while still pissed? Doing a runner at the petrol station without paying? Snorting coke before the start of the show?

Bruce Forsyth turning up at the wrong studio and having to be gently escorted to where he should be?

Paxman could be "Number 2" and escapees pursued and trapped under obese border guards. Hmm.. what do you think?

offlineMemberThe intro did remind me of The Prisoner. Will The Village streets be roamed by the London CCTV cars? Boris can ride around on one of his bikes waving cheerfully. I always did think Marr was an unmutual. Are all the obese guards called Rover? "I am not a number, I am a free Marr!"
