I don't believe that it "only" should be on radio, but is best suited there without a doubt.

Whilst I love listening to the moments when the audience burst into laughter because Graham Norton is pretending to be a poodle, I think that the contestants can do that on TV just as successfully, and that there is still a nice "magic of the unseen" for those of us listening at home in the bath.

Whilst I applaude the continued use of new people, the reason the tv show didn't work last time was because they didn't use enough regulars, and the chemistry was wrong, and I felt that it was wrong with some of the guys they got on. It wasn't that they didn't know the show, or know what to do, they simply just didn't "perform" and that's the shame. No good having wasted space.

Overall, I have enjoyed it this time. Got just the last two to watch.

I think the idea of "specials" is better than regular use. Keep it in the format (radio) it's worked for so long and make another special (like the 35 years) as a TV special and have it on the radio as well. The 35th anniversary episode is one of my favourites.
