chez_80 (@cheeky_chezza) reportedHas anyone watched 'Babies' on iplayer? I have found it a good watch, but the dumb laughing sound between the men and the black guy sounding like Brian Belo from BB years ago has been very distracting. Can't work out if it's deliberate, overacting, or natural 🤔 #bbc @BBCiPlayer

BrummieGirl (@takethe_highway) reported@bbceastenders @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer Its soap. Actors leave, characters move on etc. But if you want this pair to work these guys and the writing are gonna have to work on selling it a lot better than is currently happening.

melaniebelle (@melaniebelle808) reported@bbceastenders @BBC @BBCiPlayer Denzel brought bad medicine into the house. Now Yolande must find an Obeah man to fix this. And she won't find one in yellow pages.

Livefromwestbelfast (@Inwestbelfast) reported@StephenNolan @Frankshivers @BBCiPlayer Talking about the poor and disabled who have to beg and lower themselves to justify their need for help. Years of austerity and new stricter benefits to control fraud, and you want more. End tax avoidance and loop holes with a fair footing for everybody. Flat rate for all.

The Corporate Dude (@CorporateDude) reported@anon_opin I love @BBCiPlayer, it's years ahead of the awful @ITVX, but they need to track my usage and see that I skip EVERY SINGLE TRAILER. I don't want to watch a trailer for something else, I want to watch what I've selected.
