    I noticed the sound and vision loss of sync from the announcement 'Stop the tape!' (the stooze feature) onwards until the end of the show.

    I missed the 'Old Style' tips this week. I hope we'll see some in future shows.;)

    I enjoyed the show but was distracted by the sync problems..............what a shame.

    ABSOLUTELY FAB MARTIN - much much better than previous weeks, I understood every word you said, and pace seemed a little slower tonight. Well done.

    I didn't notice it was out of sync, I've recorded so I watch it again, that'll please the OH, he thinks there are three people in this marriage and this will confirm it for him :D (and I'm not talking about camelia Parker Bowes!).

    Edit: I have just watched bits again, I didn't notice any probs with being out of sync.

    Merlot.x.

    Just watching it on Sky plus and so far it's in sync for me? :dunno:
    Will see if it happens when we get to the "Stop the clip" bit :)

    Was lovely seeing everyone again (and some new people! Hi MSE Jen's mum!!!)

    Another great show! I never even noticed it being out of sync!

    I thought the Car Insurance spots were very informative indeed.
    I never realised you could go through the Cashbacks sights for Car Insurance.

    Thank you AGAIN Martin... :T

    Not it was incredibly hot actually ;)
    The studio lights really do get warm so definitely not cold ;) Obviously I missed something (off to watch it again lol)

    Yes I noticed the blue nosed lady too, and half her hair was blue as well :eek: just like that :D . Is it strobe lighting or something?
    :D I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe :D

    did anyone spot the poor lady with the bright blue nose, they was a blue spot light above her head and it was highlighting her nose

    was in the bit with Iwan Thomas

    I noticed that too :D
    The out of synch bit was very distracting!

    I'm glad other people noticed the mouths weren't quite in time with the sound! I thought I was going mad and it was distracting me, sorry! :o

    Another great show. I thought the car insurance feature worked well and should inspire people to at least look at other quotes, even if they don't follow the whole step-by-step technique.

    I don't think stoozing came across clearly at all and it did seem to alienate people who don't have ready access to the net. :confused: It almost came across as 'there's a thing called stoozing but we're not going to explain how it works, you need to look at the internet.' :confused:

    If I didn't have internet access, I'd be disappointed with the show as such a lot of the content and tips are web-based - even things like the cheap train tickets and cheap perfume need internet access!!! (Last week's was more even, with lots of tips around the high street etc.)

    Both Martin and Ruth came across well. They complement each other and have a relaxed atmosphere together. Shame about the lips and sound synchronicity though!! :o
