    Oh my Life! Trying desperately to watch the new show, but the camera angle switches is making it virtually impossible! 5 mins in and I'm starting to feel sick._pale_

    i am the same. it wouldnt be so bad with the camera just moving position but that and the sudden jump close up / zoom out its positively stomach churning.

    Couldn’t agree more! Great program content but won’t be watching any more with this sort of camera action!

    The camera rapid fire judder.... no no no!!

    Reminds me of when they first started using that technique in those cookery programmes a few years ago.

    It didn't work then and it doesn't work now.

    Whoever thought it was clever and made for a good viewing experience must be on some sort of medication..... which is what I need now for my eyestrain & headache.

    Otherwsie it was good ... but only contentwise.
    If the ball had gone in the net it would have been a goal.
    If my Auntie had been a man she'd have been my Uncle.
  • Sort out the stupid camerawork Martin prove you listen to the forum people on here and change this annoying feature for your next show, if it's not already been recorded.
  • I watched for 5 minutes but gave up - was a real shame that the camera would not stay still so that we could focus on the information, I'm sure it would have been an interesting watch otherwise...

    I watched for about 10 minutes but couldn't stand any more because Martin looked so smug. I lost £1000 because he had recommended Crown Currency Exchange and I will never forgive him for that! :money:

    Ditto. Was the Cameraman p1ssed? I really wasn't impressed. Shame, I'd been looking forward to it!

    Just put this on OnDemand to see what all the fuss was about on Twitter and various websites but had to switch off after 5 mins. My head is literally spinning.

    Disappointing to say the least. There may well have been very good advice being given, but I couldn't concentrate on it at all given the constant camera movement.

    Hope the production company takes this feedback on board else I can't see this retaining many viewers week on week.

    Oh, how I agree with the other people who have posted on here this evening!
    We were looking forward to watching this show, however, it was UNWATCHABLE for many viewers...
    This type of stupid camera-work is ruining so many television programmes and I won't be watching yours any more! :mad::mad::mad:

    Thank god I am not the only one!

    I found it almost impossible to watch, I did my best but could not make it to the end of the programme.

    Definitely won't be watching again!

    Whatever were they thinking? Any idea of making savings was lost with the most gimmicky programme I have seen on TV, IMHO it would be impossible to make a worse programme than this!:eek:
