May 16, 200619 yr :D Sam was it? God he must be about 5ft 9/5ft 10 :o I thought he looked tiny on PI2, but he can't be seeing him there next to D :o
May 17, 200619 yr Author I think that was the episade when he wanted a chair to stand on, funny a lot of men seem to need to stand on a chair next to D
May 17, 200619 yr Thanks. It was great to see it again. I think I've lost that show. I like Sam Nixon. He's got a good voice. It's a shame the BBC can't think of a presenting format which would allow Sam and Mark to use their individual vocal talents.
May 21, 200619 yr I thought I was then but got caught up again. Now I really am here at last. Family who suddenly all need me at once and computers that crack up every time I change anti-virus suites, can't do without them but they both drive me mad often! I still can't get my msn working. I think I answered some question wrongly when I reinstalled Norton and now msn won't let me in. Maybe it's just the firewall or something. I can't be bothered wrestling with it any more. I've had to go back to an earlier date so many times and reload stuff. My favourite sketches that Darius did on a couple of Children's programmes were Table Footballer's Wives, where as an interviewer, he did a good New York psychologist's accent and looked like a dead ringer for Clark Kent, the Big Brother sketch where he played an 'Alex Sibley'-type character obsessed with cleanliness and the unforgettable Colour Blinds advert. I wonder if anyone has them. He's been a great sport and done so many. What are everyone elses's favourites. Must mention the Blind Date sketch with Atomic Kitten and his 'date' in 'Paris' with Natasha (Kitten not Henstridge). Edited May 21, 200619 yr by Baytree
May 21, 200619 yr I loved the cream pie fight with the Sugarbabes, the knickers with Atomic Kitten and when he was down the loo. All 3 had me in stitches.
May 21, 200619 yr That custard pie one was so funny. I think it was for Children In Need. The space hoppers were supposed to be red noses. He saw off all three Sugababes without getting into a mess but it all went pear shaped when he started clowning around with Richard Blackwood and he got completely covered in the gunge.
May 22, 200619 yr I remember the big breakfast show on four when he did the weather forecast with a great american accent wearing a cap I think lopsided. He did a fewgood interviews on that show.
May 22, 200619 yr Oh yes, that was straight off the cuff and very naughty. Poor Darius always used to have very unusual fellow guests when he appeared on This Morning. Who can forget the Fairies?
May 22, 200619 yr It was his face when they said they had no male fairies. He was still trying so hard tio be polite and not laugh
May 22, 200619 yr BP, Is there any problem with copyright for little snippets from TV like the one above? Any time limit like the 30 second one?
May 23, 200619 yr Author I have read about this copyright issue and wondered the same, I actually have a video clip of Darius at the Maidstone gig, yet I do not want to upload it to youtube due to strict copyright rules on there, which dictate even your own footage of anyone else is protected by copyright - so I imagine they take them down if they infringe the rules, evidently it is youtube's call as the host for those videos linked to, they are keen that their site is linked to etc for videos. I don't think there is a 45, 30 sec or any other time limit rule, it is all classed as copyrighted etc as far as I have read - it is the fair use rule that will allow a small % of copyright material to be used, for purposes such as education and discussion, perhaps youtube have it covered by wanting comments left about the clips on their site - copyright seems very complicated to me.

I am afraid I don't really know either BT :( But all these things listed in this thread would be great to see, as I haven't seen most of them in the first place :o
