We Need Answers - Live on Twellyvision
I don't know if you've ever tried baked beans with mayonnaise mixed through (how could I?) but if you haven't, you should. It's delicious. Or how about pesto on toast? That's nice too. And Twitter with TV? No, not edible, but it is another surprisingly good combination so that's a pretty nifty opening paragraph.

The point I'm (neatly) making is that watching TV while chatting on the web is surprisingly satisfying. Both media are (sometimes) improved in the process. If you're watching Celebrity Big Brother, for instance, you feel slightly less sordid if you admit it to your followers. Especially if other people mention that they're doing and feeling the same thing; you're not nearly as lonely as you thought you were.

Similarly, if you've got the telly on while tweeting you (sometimes) feel a little less like you're wasting your life.

So, to celebrate this magnificent collusion, we (need answers) are launching the first ever (possibly) twellyvision experience. For, as the ninth episode of our glorious quiz airs on Tuesday night (at 10pm) (on ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Four), we (myself, and ) shall be both watching and tweeting for your entertainment. So not only will you be able to watch us say things on the TV, you'll also be able to read us write things about what we're saying on TV - on the web. It's almost too much. But it's just about right. And the show will be repeated the next day anyway if it's completely ruined (or you can just abandon either the commentary or the tv if it really is that bad).

The effect should be something like a director's commentary on a DVD, but live, unedited and riddled with grammatical errors - not necessarily better than the original film (depending on the original film) but certainly different. Worth a try, surely.

And that's it really. The episode itself features the hunky T4 presenter Rick Edwards squared up against former royal Jenni Bond (at last). They've both been contacted so will hopefully be in on it too. And so can you. 10pm, Tuesday night, We Need Answers (and general comments) on ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Four and online; see you there.
- The action is now over but you can still visit the We Need Answers to see what the boys are up to right now. Those are their personal accounts and the opinions expressed within are not necessarily those of the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳.
And here's a little out-take treat for you from the show. Bye!
