From Saturday I will have the ability to pause live TV - or so the advert tells me. I must say I am quite excited. No more dashing to the loo during the ad break. No more shouting "it'll be for you" when the phone rings. (Ok perhaps it's not a miracle worker and I still won't want to get off the sofa. ) Just need to find some programmes I want to watch.

Favourite programme at the moment is "The Restaurant". I can't cook but I'd love to enter just to have Raymond Blanc say "I'm closing your Restaurant" in that lovely voice of his.
