Failed GA[edit]

Again, Comprehensiveness is the main hole which needs to be filled in (only 3000 chars mainspace)

  • Production of the series: Whose idea was it to organise this series - how much did it cost? negotiation for TV rights? contract disputes? salaries? Recruiting of staff and so forth
  • Comments - what did the people invollved say about why they signed up? what were their expectations?
  • Reception: Was this shown in primetime? Was it demoted or promoted to a better time slot? What were the viewing statistics?
  • I think you can explain the format in a greater detail that would allow a person who has never seen the show to imagine what it is like. Perhaps a bigger summary of the episodes could round out the coverage.
  • Criticisms section: What did ITV say about allegations of plagiarism? Did they respond? You said the reception was mixed. PLease show us some possitive comments.
  • Lead: Per comments at [[Talk:The Book of General Ignorance] and WP:LEAD needs to be a recap of the main body, not new stuff that is not repeated.
  • Style: Please use McDonald and not "Trevor" - MOS violations - please do not put the section headings in caps except for proper nouns (except for the first wrod of the title)
