Spitting Image

Recommended Posts

I don't think I'm going to get to see the new Spitting Image. I hardly ever watch TV as it is and don't fancy paying for yet another streaming service. Am I missing much?

Believe NOTHING anyones says or writes unless you witness it yourself and even then your eyes can deceive you

None of this "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" crap it just means i have at least two enemies!

 

There is only one opinion i listen to ,its mine and its ALWAYS right even when its wrong

 

Its far easier to curse the darkness than light one candle

I had a feeling it wouldn't be quite as good. Everyone's afraid of 'offending' anyone these days.

Slightly off topic but in a similar vein - how to send YouTube to the Telly from a phone, tablet or Laptop.

Then all I have to do is start watching the YouTube subject on the Laptop then click "Watch on TV" on the subjects toolbar.

It'll put it on Telly & start again from the beginning.

On Any Flat screen Telly, ie, one that doesn't play "God Save The Queen" & goes off at 12 O'Clock with the little white dot that is!!

We use a streaming box whilst the tv version of youtube works fine its not showing youtube in 4k (which is strange its a 4k telly) but the box does and a mouse to me is far easier to use than a remote control .It came with a remote you could talk into that sits in a drawer unused i dont need to lose any more conversations

As for 4k itself more than a couple of feet from the telly you wont see any difference from 1080p but if it does it why not but your never going to see raw 1080p never mind 4k so its all a bit of a con

Whilst casting from one device to another is fine its going to remove any quality of image on your shiny new 4k tv ,your recieving the video from your source at a terribly slow connection the the cast device uses whatever compression format it uses for you to watch it then it recompresses it to send to the tv which does the same ,whilst old fashioned copper seems to be laughed at there no lag using cat7 cable from the router to the 4k box and only a little using optical from there to the telly  .

We took a year to get a decent speed down the telephone line ,141mbs at the router ,140mbs at the pc ,50 mbs using wireless !wireless isnt what its said to be and i use the fastest possible transmision rates i can afford in a netgear nighthawk and all the wiring is gigabit .

Gone is the days of waiting 20 seconds for a page to fully open but even a second is looooong ,better than the 5 odd minutes using prestel lol

Unfortunately 4k is just as rare a thing as 1080p is in transmision cirlcles ,despite years of owning a 1080p capable sat dish i have never found one channel in 1080p (all 1080l which is half the quality) so i doubt my 4k version will find the local news in 4k in the next few years ,they may say it is but its not !

I see that the Guardian are moaning about how toothless the satire of Spitting Image has become.

Ironic when it's the sanctimonious Guardian reading left that have effectively killed comedy and especially satire.
