0:00:02 > 0:00:03This week, misbehaving twins on Pointless,
0:00:03 > 0:00:08mispronunciation on The One Show and missing the old BBC idents?
0:00:08 > 0:00:11Some of you are. Welcome to your Points Of View.
0:00:21 > 0:00:25First up, in its 30th anniversary year, and Casualty treated us
0:00:25 > 0:00:27to a dramatic two-parter.
0:00:27 > 0:00:29It had you gripped.
0:00:34 > 0:00:37THEY GROAN
0:00:43 > 0:00:45Last Saturday night saw the deadly conclusion of
0:00:45 > 0:00:50a dramatic two-part episode and the death of fan favourite Caleb Knight,
0:00:50 > 0:00:53portrayed by Richard Winsor, after three years on the show.
0:01:09 > 0:01:10Cal?
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Caleb?
0:01:23 > 0:01:26Casualty will mark the end of its current series with
0:01:26 > 0:01:30a special episode filmed in a totally unique way.
0:01:30 > 0:01:32We caught up with the programme's series producer,
0:01:32 > 0:01:35Erika Hossington, to hear about this ambitious project.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41How could we close the 30th anniversary series?
0:01:41 > 0:01:45Get the series creator, Paul Unwin, back to write a one-off episode.
0:01:46 > 0:01:51Paul's pitch - can we do a one-shot episode? I said yes immediately.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54So the episode starts with a big stunt.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56I'm not going to tell you anything about that,
0:01:56 > 0:01:58but it is very spectacular, in pure Casualty style.
0:01:58 > 0:02:02And then we pick up, coming into the department,
0:02:02 > 0:02:05with two girls from a local school,
0:02:05 > 0:02:07a very nice school called St Abigail's,
0:02:07 > 0:02:12who are coming in to be looked after and shown around by Duffy for
0:02:12 > 0:02:14an hour - that's all they've got.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17And so we very much see the department, the staff and all
0:02:17 > 0:02:21the patients through the eyes of these two teenage girls.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23We have shot it hand-held,
0:02:23 > 0:02:26so it's single camera but with two operators.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29So there are points in the episode where the camera is passed
0:02:29 > 0:02:31between one operator to another.
0:02:31 > 0:02:36Not content with that, we fly the camera men on wires,
0:02:36 > 0:02:40so the camera man actually flies down from the first floor to
0:02:40 > 0:02:44the ground floor and ends up back in admin and then picks up
0:02:44 > 0:02:47a completely different part of the action.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50You come away from it just thinking, "Oh, my goodness!
0:02:50 > 0:02:54"How do these people do that, day in, day out, week in, week out?"
0:02:54 > 0:02:56It really is a testament to the NHS,
0:02:56 > 0:02:59and that really was our intention with this episode.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03The special one-shot episode will air in July.
0:03:03 > 0:03:07Laughter is proving to be the best medicine for you on Friday nights
0:03:07 > 0:03:10with the 53rd series of Have I Got News For You.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16Kirsty Young was the referee last Friday night with the usual
0:03:16 > 0:03:19team captains, Ian Hislop and Paul Merton.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22Do we know what mugwump really means, though?
0:03:22 > 0:03:24- I told you what it meant. - No, no, but I mean...
0:03:24 > 0:03:26- Are you doubting the political editor of ITV?- I think he is.
0:03:26 > 0:03:30- It's extraordinary.- He wins an award and he thinks he's Lord Rothermere!
0:03:52 > 0:03:56But some of you thought Kirsty made a spectacle of herself.
0:03:56 > 0:04:00Take a look at this. They took, of course, to editing it.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03Let's take a look at what makes Jeremy happy. Little speeches.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06- Do you think it's related? - No.- You answered that so rapidly.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Why was Batman... Refusing to answer?
0:04:09 > 0:04:10Well, I mean, who cares, really?
0:04:22 > 0:04:26Rarely have I seen anything on television is distracting as
0:04:26 > 0:04:30Kirsty Young's antics with her glasses on Have I Got News For You.
0:04:30 > 0:04:34On, off, on, off all the way through.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36Have I got news for Kirsty Young!
0:04:36 > 0:04:40You can now buy contact lenses and bifocals,
0:04:40 > 0:04:43which alleviate the need for removing and replacing her glasses,
0:04:43 > 0:04:46peering at her script and mumbling.
0:04:46 > 0:04:52The series continues on BBC One at nine o'clock on Friday nights.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55Kirsty's glasses weren't the only things causing
0:04:55 > 0:04:56a distraction this week.
0:04:59 > 0:05:03Last Saturday's international celebrity special of Pointless
0:05:03 > 0:05:06featured some famous foreign friends, such as Jimmy Osmond and
0:05:06 > 0:05:08the brothers Jedward.
0:05:08 > 0:05:13The Dublin duo's antics did not impress and you flooded our mailbox with complaints.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16Back in the '60s, people were watching...when you were on TV,
0:05:16 > 0:05:18- people were watching.- He's still on TV, rocking it!- Ten seconds left.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21- How do you pronounce Dalmatian? - Focus!- Ten seconds left.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23# Yo, I'll tell you what I want What I really, really want
0:05:23 > 0:05:25# So tell me what you want What you really, really want... #
0:05:25 > 0:05:28Some subliminal message went into his head and he got the rap.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31Well, certainly something's going on, yeah.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57We didn't win the Eurovision, we didn't win that other talent show,
0:05:57 > 0:05:59but, like, come on, we kind of won this show.
0:05:59 > 0:06:03Moving on, the BBC One idents have certainly evolved since they were
0:06:03 > 0:06:06created way back in 1953.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18Now, after a decade of swimming in circles,
0:06:18 > 0:06:23it is goodbye to TV's most famous hippos as BBC One has launched
0:06:23 > 0:06:26a new set of idents to appear just before its TV shows.
0:06:26 > 0:06:30The BBC commissioned acclaimed British photographer Martin Parr
0:06:30 > 0:06:35to capture an evolving portrait of modern Britain in all its diversity.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37Some of you have not been inspired.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43We set some of our toughest viewers loose with their opinions on
0:06:43 > 0:06:45the new BBC One idents.
0:06:45 > 0:06:49Producers, be warned - this VT includes strong reactions.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54- I don't like these.- That's terrible.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56That will just curdle your milk in your tea
0:06:56 > 0:06:58when you're watching programmes.
0:07:01 > 0:07:02Oh, no! It's terrible.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06I hate the fact they're out of time with one another.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09I just find the sound annoying, I find her shouting annoying,
0:07:09 > 0:07:12I just find the whole thing... I'm sure she's a lovely lady, but, oh!
0:07:12 > 0:07:14I just find them boring.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20I think it's a beautiful scene and it sounds nice,
0:07:20 > 0:07:23listening to birds, tweeting. Hearing those birds...
0:07:25 > 0:07:27- Yeah.- It's nice to hear that sound,
0:07:27 > 0:07:31- it's a relaxing sound, you know. - I just wanted to see the programme
0:07:31 > 0:07:33cos I didn't realise it was an ident!
0:07:35 > 0:07:39- I have to say, it's the first one that's showing young people.- Yeah.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41We've got quite a diverse country and,
0:07:41 > 0:07:45so far, it's all been middle-aged people, I guess my age and upwards.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50I like this one. This one's all right.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53But I tend to focus too much on the dog cos that dog cracks me up
0:07:53 > 0:07:57cos he's clearly not a trained dog, look! He's a puppy. He's off!
0:07:57 > 0:07:58Go on, go find someone!
0:07:58 > 0:08:02There's nothing BBC Oneish about it. There's nothing to tell you that's what you're watching.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04At least they're wearing red.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08I do love that one with the Indian dancers. I think that's great.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10But only because it's colourful and bright.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12It's colourful, it's bright, it shows diversity.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14I don't know what Oneness means.
0:08:14 > 0:08:15I don't know what it's all about.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18I understand the concept - it's about bringing the country together
0:08:18 > 0:08:21after what has been a divisive year,
0:08:21 > 0:08:25but then the execution itself, it's just not very good.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27They've not really done a very good job.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30I think these new idents are boring and they're not creative enough.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32They're not very successful as idents because you can't
0:08:32 > 0:08:34really tell what they are.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37There's just a breathtaking lack of creativity and form.
0:08:37 > 0:08:42Does it represent the BBC in all its glory? Sadly, I don't think so.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45I don't think they identify what the BBC is about.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47I don't find them entertaining.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49I don't find them making me want to watch them.
0:08:49 > 0:08:53They're not interesting in that respect. They're not drawing me in.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55- I don't want to find out more. - I really...
0:08:55 > 0:08:57I think they're all boring and dull.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59I think refreshing is a good thing to be done,
0:08:59 > 0:09:03and it should be done frequently, but these are just not...
0:09:03 > 0:09:05They're just not working for me.
0:09:05 > 0:09:09Over to BBC Two now and the finale of the hotly anticipated
0:09:09 > 0:09:13second season of the critically acclaimed drama The Last Kingdom.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Based on Bernard Cornwell's bestselling novels,
0:09:18 > 0:09:21The Lords Of The North and Sword Song,
0:09:21 > 0:09:24the series has been delighting fans.
0:09:24 > 0:09:29- I cannot let her go!- She's our fortune! She's our reputation!
0:09:29 > 0:09:34- If it's reputation you want, you can begin with killing me.- Uhtred, no!
0:09:34 > 0:09:38If you want your fortune, you must kill me.
0:09:52 > 0:09:53High praise indeed,
0:09:53 > 0:09:58but some of you were not happy with how the BBC scheduled the series.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19- How am I to trust you? - Lord, I'm weary of this.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21YOU are weary of this?
0:10:22 > 0:10:26Popping over to BBC Three and the improvised comedy series
0:10:26 > 0:10:28Murder In Successville.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33Each week, DI Sleet enlists the help of
0:10:33 > 0:10:37a genuine celebrity psychic to solve the latest high-profile murder.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39This week, it was Lorraine Kelly.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41- Has there been a murder?- What?
0:10:43 > 0:10:47- Has there... Has there been a murder, sir?- Ah, right.
0:10:47 > 0:10:50- Sorry, sir, I've just always wanted to say that, sir.- Sit down.
0:10:50 > 0:10:51Thank you, sir.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54This surreal murder mystery is in its third series and
0:10:54 > 0:10:57continues to keep you streaming and downloading.
0:11:15 > 0:11:19There was another crime scene over on The One Show and,
0:11:19 > 0:11:21this time, the victim was the English language.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27Poor pronunciation is always
0:11:27 > 0:11:29a bugbear for us here at Points Of View,
0:11:29 > 0:11:32and it was Matt Baker and Michelle Ackerley this time.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36The race to become a nucular superpower was anything
0:11:36 > 0:11:37but straightforward.
0:11:37 > 0:11:41You got in touch to bemoan the word nuclear being wrongly pronounced
0:11:41 > 0:11:45as nucular, which seems to be more and more common.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13Britain's Nucular Bomb, The Inside Story,
0:12:13 > 0:12:14next Wednesday at nine o'clock.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17Over on Have I Got A Bit More News For You,
0:12:17 > 0:12:20guest host Richard Osman fell foul of this one too.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23The only way my mum would go to nucular war is if
0:12:23 > 0:12:25- they cancelled Eggheads.- No!
0:12:25 > 0:12:28So Dean has had to get in touch with Points Of View twice this week.
0:12:54 > 0:12:55Well, if, like Dean,
0:12:55 > 0:12:59you spot something on the BBC that leaves you displeased or indeed
0:12:59 > 0:13:02delighted, please do get in touch and let us know.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04You can send us your thoughts or upload
0:13:04 > 0:13:05a video through our website at...
0:13:08 > 0:13:10Or drop us an e-mail at...
0:13:12 > 0:13:15We're on both Twitter, where we are @bbcPoV,
0:13:15 > 0:13:18and Facebook - just search for BBC Points Of View.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21And finally, of course, amid so many ways to get in touch,
0:13:21 > 0:13:24you can put pen to paper and simply write to us.
0:13:24 > 0:13:25The address is...
0:13:30 > 0:13:34We're back at 4pm next Sunday afternoon right here on BBC One.
0:13:34 > 0:13:35We'll see you then.
