"The Common Room" was an interactive TV show on ITV Play. "The Common Room"'s main presenters were Tim Dixon and Emma Lee. Zö Christien also presented occasionally.

Format

"The Common Room" launched on ITV Play on Monday 31st July. "The Common Room" dropped their puzzles/quizzes and is now a text-in programme. A daily theme was usually set allowing viewers to text-in with their opinions. Pictures and videos were sent in as well. Prizes could be rewarded for the best picture/video and text. The prizes usually contained an ITV Play T-Shirt, Slinky, Pen and sometimes an electrical item as well (e.g. Mp3 Player). So this was more of a chat show. The presenter also gave out celebrity gossip, facts or general news.

Viewers could phone, text or send an MMS to take part in the show. People's text messages were always on the screen and occasionally photos and videos were shown. A live phone call took place rarely.

The first series of the show ended on Friday, 10 November 2006.

Presenters and Studio

The set of "The Common Room" consisted of a green sofa with notice boards behind next to a plasma screen which isn't always visible. The presenter used a miniature electrical screen to read the texts. Alternatively, the presenter could read the screen in front of them to read the texts and view the pictures

Tim Dixon is a former CITV presenter between January-December 2003. Whilst not working, Tim is a music enthusiast, enjoys singing and playing the guitar.
