    radio times interview

    hi everyone.

    here is a little piece that carol typed up on the fanclub, it is about aled and his favourite tv shows. i just thought i would share this with you guys

     

     

    What I'm watching - Aled Jones 

    All too often I end up watching Scooby-Doo!  with my children,.  Actually it's great. I'm reliving my own childhood, and I love seeing old favourites through
    the eyes of my kids.    Classics I saw as a child, such as Trumpton and Button Moon, were far more innocent than the sophisticated modern stuff, but my
    six year old Emilia and my three year old Lucas seem to enjoy them every bit as much. 

    When I do get to choose my own viewing, I go for several US imports.   I'm hooked on Brothers and Sisters and so proud of Matthew  Rhys, the Welsh actor
    who plays Kevin.  His American accent's fantastic.  I watch The Simpsons, of course – and I defy anyone to do so and stay miserable, however bad a day
    they've had – Friends and Frasier. In fact, there was a time when I seemed to watch nothing but Frasier. It's just the perfect sitcom, isn't it?  I'm also
    one of the saddos who still watches Lost.  My only fear is that I'll die before I find out what really happened. 

    I can't resist reality shows such as Strictly Come Dancing and The X Factor, and was even a Big Brother addict to begin with, but its gone too far now 
    -too many weirdos   and too much manipulation. 

    I enjoy sport, particularly football as I'm a huge Arsenal fan.  Euro 2008 was just great.   It didn't matter to me that there wasn't a home team to support-being
    Welsh, I've never had my home team to support in European football! 

    Interview by Hilary Bonner. 

    On Sundays Aled Jones has his own show on Radio 2 and presents The Choir on Radio 3.  He's also starring in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang at the Wales Millennium 
    Centre, Cardiff to 30 August.

    Oh, if only he knew what stupid American shows there are.  *Rolls eyes*  The Simpsons is an old favorite of mine as well, but I royally detest the reality shows here.  Heh  Sounds like you lot have a nice bunch though.

    Welcome to the forum.

     We have some pretty awful reality shows here - Big Brother being one of them.  Then there's Lovel Island, I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here, the list goes on.  Pretty mindless stuff IMHO.

     However Strictly Come Dancing and X Factor are entertaining as is Britains Got Talent.  Currently watching America's Got Talent - think Jerry Springer does a good job hosting that.
