Talk:The Catherine Tate Show

message: Where/when was it confirmed that the Have A Guess woman is called Sheila?
:Says who? In the scripts book the woman who demands the guess (Tate) is called Kate and the guesser is called Ellen. I think the woman who complains about everybody and then loudly farts is called Sheila though...  — Gary Kirk // talk! 09:27, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, she is. Says in the scripts book, and (I just noticed) in the article. — Gary Kirk // talk! 16:40, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

message: I also removed the Contoroversy section as it was not sourced (Visitor was even spelt wrong) and it was just a local newspaper's opinion. — Gary Kirk // talk! 09:27, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Controversy 

message: Although I'm a big fan of Catherine, I have to say I think this page as it stands is much too long and crufty, in fact it's verging on a description of every sketch in every episode, which is too in-depth for WP.  I also don't think characters who appear in multiple series need a new listing under each one saying essentially that the sketches continued in the same vein.  The descriptions of the major characters could do with being shortened drastically (or spun off into their own articles, as has happened with Little Britain) and minor characters such as "the backhander woman", "the airhead", "snack food woman" should be removed completely.  Any thoughts.....? ChrisTheDude 12:44, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I must say, i'm beginning to agree. I think that it would be better if we had a separate page for all of the characters, keep a list of the really major characters on The Catherine Tate Show page with a very brief description of each character. Also, I think that we should have list of all of the characters that appeared in sereis one, two and three in different lists on The Catherine Tate Show page. Could someone start a page for a list of all of the characters. Any more thoughts? Eagle Owl 22:14, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Page size

message: This is getting far too long - is it really ncessary to have six catchphrases for Derek and four for Janice and Ray?  In the case of Derek the six "catchphrases" amount to pretty much all the dialogue he ever has!  I think the list needs to be pared back down to things that a more casual viewer of the show would automatically associate with the character in question.  If you were to ask someone what Janice and Ray's catchphrase was, I don't think they'd suggest "Don't ask" or "listen to this"...... ChrisTheDude 10:39, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Catchphrases section

message: I'm not sure if we should start a different page and make a list of episodes from The Catherine Tate Show entitled List of The Catherine Tate Show episodes and have a brief description of what happened in each particular episode, maybe what happened to certain characters. Any thoughts? Eagle Owl 21:24, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Catherine comic relief.jpg

message: The piece claims that the Nan character, "often uses the phrases 'What a fuckin' liberty!!' and 'What a load of horse shit!'" However it is more likely (and logical) that Nan exclaims “what a fuckin’ libertine!”  Could it be that the original contributor simply didn’t have the vocabulary and made a mistake in what they understood her to say?
:No. Please read the scripts. --Rodhullandemu 20:24, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Nan's expression 

message: In 2006, this catchphrase was named Word of the Year[3] and entered the Oxford English Dictionary. A spokesperson for the OED commented
“	Am I bovvered?' and its follow-up, 'Does my face looked bovvered?' had already come to be seen as the perfect expression of a generation of teenagers and their speaking style."[4]
Despite the reference links (both of which point to the same blog post) if you follow the link to the actual 'Word of the Year' article clearly 'Plutoed' is stated as the WotY. This needs a real source or it should be removed. --24.4.132.165 (talk) 22:00, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Word of the Year? 

message: Both the article about Tate herself and the one about Derren Litten say that he was Tate's co-writer on this show, yet this article names someone else and doesn't mention Litten at all. Could somebody who knows for sure who wrote what please correct either this article or the other two?

thread_title:  Co-writer(s)? 

message: I am unclear as to why the article is in :Category:British television series revived after cancellation. There is nothing in the article that would suggest the series was ever cancelled by the BBC, merely that Catherine Tate said in 2007 no more episodes would be made, which if I recall was her decision. Also the series has never been revived, rather there have been specials of Catherine Tate's Nan which is based on the character from the original sketches in the Catherine Tate Show, but is really a spin-off of it rather than a revival and is significantly different from the original (eg being a sitcom rather than a sketch show).
