Well I have no doubt that he will beat them…ONCE. However our heroes will not be out of the fight. They will pick themselves up and dust themselves off. Then they will beat Galacticus after realising that the greatest bond that they share is that all important FAMILY! That is what will give them the edge over Galacticus. They are a family. Galacticus doesn’t have a family you see, he’s all alone up there with just his Heralds. This is why he will (in the end) LOSE!

I don’t want Enders in my Fantastic Four. It is bad enough having Enders in my Enders!
I hope that Ben Bradshaw changes the show to be less ‘Enders’ and more something else that I would prefer to watch. I doubt it though, he is all about making the show like it used to be, back when he was a drooling little wean.

I think he should get Billie Piper in to visit Bianca Jackson again
Something about that fashion show threw Billie's character into the lofty heights of stardom and she's back to say thanks to Bianca because of some terminal illness or something.
Then she discovers Bianca has gone
oop North
with Sonya and we get her meeting Christopher Eccleston in his role as DCI David Billborough's twin brother and they go looking for her out by the witching grounds of Pendle.
The Whirlygrig appears and all hell breaks loose

Well Simon and Trevor, Barrowman and a whole bunch of their gophers used to leg it up to Glasgow after filming to drink on Byres Road in Glasgow Bobby
Hmmm….i wonder if they filmed their bits separately then.
Barrowman’s maybe, but Trev and Simon used to interact with that weeks guests!!

It's quite possible that they filmed in two different locations and had it edited together with the live show for broadcast with phone ins
I'm not saying how it all worked, just that lots of it was in Glasgow and I know that for a fact because I used to partake in a bevvy alongside those who worked on the show

So it is all a SHAM!!!
There was me visiting White City in London thinking that was where most of classic Doctor Who, Blue Peter, Noel’s Crinkly Bottom and YES, Live & Kicking was filmed…but that last one at least was a lie!!!

I hate to break this one to you Bobby, but did you know that Graham Norton isn't live on a Friday and is also sometimes shot in Glasgow?

Oh I’m not bothered about Graham Norton or any modern TV. So anyway I decided to see if artificial intelligence could help me out and it came up with this…
No, the children's Saturday morning show "Live & Kicking" was not filmed in Glasgow. While it was a popular BBC show, it was filmed in London, at BBC Television Centre in White City. There may be some confusion with other shows or events filmed in Glasgow that share a similar title or theme. For example, Simple Minds filmed a live version of "Alive and Kicking" in Glasgow in 2014, and the BBC's "River City" is filmed in Dumbarton, near Glasgow. However, "Live & Kicking" itself was always a London-based production.
This video shows Simple Minds performing "Alive and Kicking" in Glasgow:
So there we have it. You obviously watched Simple Minds perform Alive and Kicking and got it muddled up with this.

Well further research tells me that filming moved to BBC Scotland in 2001 for its last season which is after Barrowman and T&S had left, so maybe they were filming some parts of it there much earlier as you say.
I bet it was some thrill! Did you chat to them much?
