What did you think of the show? (20/02/09)

Host_Ryan - One Show team | 15:06 UK time, Friday, 20 February 2009


Boyzone heart-throb and Irish charmer Ronan Keating joined Christine and Adrian on the sofa to talk about climbing Kilimanjaro for Comic Relief and his new album, Songs For My Mother.


Following reports of the rise of mental health disorders among middle-aged women, Ruby Wax looked at the people behind the headlines who've been affected by depression. Watch the film and read Dr Sarah Jarvis' blog on the subject here.


Angellica Bell got out her highlighter pen and flicked through the history of the Lonely Hearts advert. You can still share your own fun personal ads. And watch our web exclusive - Sarah Beeny on online dating.


Hardeep Singh Kholi hit the Big Top to visit a family of circus performers in his mission finding people who have discovered their own Heaven On Earth. More on Zippos Circus.


With Red Nose Day just around the corner One Show viewers were treated to a sneak preview of the video for this year's Comic Relief single, Barry Islands In The Stream, as performed by Gavin and Stacey's Rob Brydon and Ruth Jones. You can watch the full video on Let's Dance For Comic Relief on Saturday night.


And Marty Jopson rounded off his week of Body Tricks films by looking at muscle memory and the strange things our arms do after leaning on a door frame. Watch it here. You can still take the Stroop Test and check out all the Body Tricks films.

    Maybe she is wearing that top for a bet. Maybe it is to go with the circus/clown piece

    Depression is frequently anger towards the self. Men often express anger (without a mental health label) whereas women often express their anger towards themselves (giving a mental health label). What is considered to be a mental health label is the real issue. Doctors can be the worst for understanding what is or is not a mental health issue!

    women try to do to much, juggling family life, and a full time job, no wonder they get depressed.

    I realize that your camera men love to try out their latest camera novelties upon an unsuspecting public, but could you please ask them to not inflict the blurred-coming-into-focus routine that we suffered during your piece about depressed middle-aged women. It's bad enough putting up with strobe-effect images flashing on the screen with looking away from the screen as our only choice. It may be trendy and the latest thing since sliced bread, but it is also disconcerting and unnecessary. It also spoils our enjoyment of an otherwise excellent programme.

    Are we allowed to mention CT? I watch this show because my very elderly relative still waits for CT to show up! The constant sycophancy makes me cringe!

    What a load of ol' whingers and harpies! Don't care for the look myself but bows are apparently "in" right now, saw it on GMTV only this morning. Anyway, what does it matter?Let Christine wear what she likes, might not suit tastes of all but so what? Take a look at what those "celebrities" will be wearing for the Oscars on Sunday and see if all their stuff is to your taste! In fact post a pic of what some of you are wearing and let's lay it open to public scrutiny, yeah. If she's happy with her outfit, let her be. Er... why DO some of the moaners watch this show?

    OK, not my style of top for Christine, but honestly does it matter? If anyone can "get away with it" then she can as she genuinely seems such a lovely bubbly person!

    Is it right what the Sun has been saying - that Christine had to agree to a considerable pay cut before the BBC would agree to renew her contract. She is currently on £100,000 a year or so the newspaper reported. I wonder how much the Chief presenter gets?

    did Christine get her dress off the peg?
    if so where?
    someone would like one the same.

    I n don't know were Chistine gets her tops, but with her legs, she really could get away with wearing tea towels, only the women would notice, the men wouldn't care less, and as for me, well!! I'm just jealous.

    Can I ask Host Ryan why the site takes so long to update the picture on the daily site? The one of the presenters with "The Hoff" is STILL showing today 22nd Feb when he actually appeared on the show on 19th and we have since had Ronan Keating appear on Friday night's show. Why is it not possible to update this feature on a daily basis please? Just asking.

    We do update the Iplayer on the homepage every day - unless prevented by a technical glitch - which is what happened in this case.

    Love the show, watch it every night, but...(always a but, isn't there??) please tone down the hysteria, it's annoying. Giggling is one thing, but roaring laughter is quite another. Christine, you are lovely, but please, tone it down. Adrian has it just right. Keep the show content as it is too, perfect. More interesting info and less trivia.
    A One Show fan from Day One!
