Something for the Weekend Reviews

This is another of those weekly shows that I try to catch but usually come across by accident anyway.

Something for the Weekend is a nice blend of interests that is sure to appeal to a wider range of people than just the average weekend cooking show. There is a section devoted to gadgets (this week it was the £10,000 home projector, the vibrating dumbbell and the briefcase barbeque XD), clips from different shows that have been on TV that week (or previews of the next), and an interesting segment on how to spot a con (or perhaps carry one out as they do give an awful amount of information). As for the actual cooking, it is interesting and they have a weekly celebrity guest who has to help out as well, which may interest some.

On the downside I find the presenters can be a little annoying sometimes, and the cooking isn't as strong a section as it is in other shows. Tim Lovejoy just tries too hard... Anyway, it's a good enough show with quite a lot going in to interest almost everyone.
