Flipside TV
We produced over 130 episodes of this show which was the forerunner to Gogglebox. It started out on Nation 217, the went to Channel 4 and Paramount Comedy. 

The show was broadcast live and included a presenter and three guests, each with their own television and digital satellite receiver.

The guests would "flip" through the many hundreds of satellite channels looking for something interesting. If something interesting was found, whatever it was then broadcast live on the show with the guests providing their own mainly comic commentary.

It was presented mainly by Richard Bacon, who was also one of the show's executive producers. Karl Pilkington made his first ever TV appearance on Flipside and it was also where Alan Carr made his Channel 4 debut.
