I watch it but I dont take the reviews seriously, I just like to see all the new toys on it
Quoted for truth!
But they hardly even show that many gadgets, they spend ages telling you "what's coming up later on the show".
The first advert break is about 5 minutes into the start of the show.
Too appeal to the max number of people, it has to be entertaining though, an hour of technical reviews would probably be boring for some people.
TBH she is nearly as anoying as that bird on 5th gear.
you take that back.. I love VBH!!
freak!
I've never seen a winner mentioned either, I've entered a few times but no cigar :'(
They'd have to do a review.

Vikki's not particularly hot, but she is a true motorhead, which is a plus I suppose...

Winners all get listed on the main channel 5 website, along with all their other competitions.
Here's the archive: http://www.five.tv/winners/?archive=true
What annoyed me the most was that broadband thing they did. They made out they was pioneering a revolution by getting people to all do this test and then do a survey thing to say "we aint getting our 8mbs!".
They even explained why people dont get the "upto 8mb" speed yet still tried to get people to particpate in this as if it was some big unjust.

I actually lol'd at the Laptop test the other week, they said the sony laptop was slow well of course its probably got norton and loads of other crap bloated on to it and they said the MacBook air was slow rofl if they actually looked in depth to the features of OSX things like spaces actually help people with small screens on laptops.
I think they are all a bunch of windows fanboys which are scared to try any other operating system..

The most annoying thing is that every Series they do the same tests.
Lets drop an MP3 player on the floor then run it over, then blow it up, to see which one is the toughest.
Or we'll test the same Digital Cameras in the same way as before.
Yawn

LOL I thought it was quite entertaining... Gotta get myself one of them now.
A rally car?
Yeah, that really baffled me. Then again, they always seem to be biased towards Apple products anyway.

i agree
most people who watch the gadget show probably don't no any better and take their reviews as truth
