Welcome to The TV Shelter.

We are sorry to say that as of the 8th April 2014, The TV Shelter will no longer be open to new posts, threads or members. Like that famous Monty Python sketch, this forum has joined the choir invisible.

However this will continue to remain as an archive so that visitors can mindlessly plunder through old threads to look at PIFs, TV listings and other miscellanea that made this place truly unique.

And if you still can't get your fix of TV nostalgia visit Facebook's TV Heaven or even TV Ark, the website that spawned the original forums.

And finally a long standing has made a successor to the TV Shelter, which to a few is reminiscent of when an ITV franchise would change to another. The forum is called The TV Lounge and should keep the spirit running that it's predecessors carried.

We hope you enjoy your visit.

As it says at the bottom. Unfortunately its another celebrity series again hosted by Vernon Kay. Why can't they put real family's on.

I agree. It would be better if they used unknown families rather than celebs but a good format is a good format and I'm happy to have it back on the box.

that's obviously the format they want to work with now and i thought a while back it might be retained. i can understand the test format they did last year, but why oh why oh why do they bring back real contestants instead of Jack Slugen's Emmerdale family against Gail Platt's Corrie family.

ludurious! it is only so they get more time on the telly to get a bigger paycheck!

I seen a couple of episodes in the last few weeks. I noticed Peter Dickson is announcing again (he did it on the final Les Dennis series) but I am still annoyed that they use Celebrity Families as opposed to members from the public.
