I received this from today's BBC4 weekly mail-out...
"CHARLIE BROOKER'S SCREENWIPE
Mon 26 Feb
In the last of the current series, the most vicious pen in TV criticism takes a stab at recent programmes, as well as puncturing some of the industry's more ludicrous trends."
A bit vague!
On her radio show I believe Aisleyne described what she's involved in on Screenwipe as "hilarious".
The last time she used that word was to describe what she thought of being declared "Worst Dressed Celebrity 2006" by Orange.
So I'm just wondering if she's using it as a codeword meaning "Don't worry, guys, I get some stick in it but it's all in fun and well worth it to get back on TV".
Hopefully I'm way off the pace, but I just think we need to be prepared and not get too precious or sensitive about it on Aisleyne's behalf if it is that way.  |

| Yay, I saw her  What a star.
Ash looked beautiful, as usual! It was funny, the way they were laughing at the editing. Ash was FAB, she is a great actress.
LOVE YOU ASH, YOU WERE ACE xxxx

| Rough summary for those who missed it...
There was a section on the show about editing. Charlie Brooker then went on to say that it's used a lot in reality TV shows to whittle down 24 hours of footage into a show and often gives a distorted view of things.
He then introduced his own reality TV show featuring a children's entertainer, a runner from the last series, himself and Aisleyne. They were all in a room and chatting, then he went through a list of various edits to distort the truth.
He made it out that Aisleyne fancied him and then that she was bored to pieces by him. He told a joke which got some laughs, but then edited it to give him complete silence in response. There was also an edit to make out he was looking at Aisleyne in a pervy way.
It ended with him saying that actually he and Aisleyne have been married for the past few years. Things then cut to a montage of him and Aisleyne getting romantic in a park. He then revealed that she had to be paid to do this and they had to hold up a picture of Richard Madeley to get her in the romantic mood! |

Yes, she looked good in that blue dress! 
I liked the "biggest c**ks in advertising" section too.  |

| Charlie B clearly set this up just so he could get to hug Aisleyne, and live out his fantasy that he's been married to her for two years! Charlie's got the ho-o-ots, Charlie's got the ho-o-ots! Ner nerner ner ner!
That was so funny, and how exquisitely appropriate that it was all about the editing of reality shows. AND there was certainly plenty of screentime for Ash too. Absolutely superb!
And then, when it was all over, we got good ol' Grace Dent to soften the blow. What a bonus! |

It was also nice to see Grace Dent later on in the programme. Like Charlie Brooker, she's another TV critic who wanted Aisleyne to win Big Brother...

| The program is a sort of broadsheet version of Harry Hill's TV Burp. Charlie Brooker was quite funny and made some interesting observations. His take on reality show editing was less satirical. It showed how reality show producers can edit highlights to promote their own agenda. Aisleyne was perfect for this role as, in my opinion, BB7 producers continually gave her bad edits. It was wonderful to see her, she looked stunning.

Location: Scottish Borders | She was good, and looked amazing!
Charlie Brooker certainly gave her a sympathetic treatment, although I noticed she had to provide her own costumes.
It was great to se her moving around again. (as opposed to just photos).
The rest of the show wasn't at all bad. I noted at the end that the announcer said he would be back with a much higher budget next series. Perhaps he'll be allowed to repaint his office.
I hope other TV producers see this and decide to give her more work on the box. |

Was that the Penthouse party top she was wearing?

| It was a really fun segment, but made a good point too about editing. It was great to see Ash relaxing and looking happy, especially the funny scenes at the end in the park. And she looked drop dead gorgeous to top it all off! |

| Here are a few screengrabs I made to give a flavour of the show. It's next repeated in just over an hour's time at 00.50.

| So who's going to request Forever and Ever by Demis Roussos on Aisleyne's radio show then?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demis_Roussos
It accompanied the scene in the park, here's another screengrab of it...

I like the look on her face!

Although we could have done without the close-up of the Richard Madeley photo |

So what's the chances of Aisleyne getting on Richard and Judy now?
(Richard: 100% - He now thinks he's Ash's fantasy figure)
(Judy 0% - She's known all along that Ash was HIS fantasy figure!)

| Good to see Ash back on our screens. Looks like she enjoyed herself. I'm afraid Grace Dent comes across a lot better on paper than on-screen. I know I'm shallow but I can't stop looking at her teeth when she's on TV! Thanks for the screen shots Maringo. |

| I trust we are all going to make our comments on the show in the "Have your say" facility on the website. I suggest the comment should be mainly about the show, with some nice words about Ash "slipped in". I referred to the editing expose and to Grace Dent, though I managed to "mention" Ash appropriately on both points! They only use a "selection" so anything too fanmailish will doubtless be binned.
