I returned today from a short holiday at the beach to discover (via kreachure on the forums) that the site was featured on the international BBC television program “Click”. This is quite a thrill and so I thought I should share it with everyone here. You can use the link below to select your choice of bandwidth to view the entire show. We are featured at around 22 minutes.

Yay! Listverse is famous
This site just keeps going up and up in fame stakes…
*evil laugh*
just all a part of the plan for LV to take over cyberspace…
I watched it. I think she did a really good job. She obviously did her homework on the site. The radio hosts only read the front page, Click actually clicked around the site. Great job to them. Oh and it started for me just after the 21 minute.
Excellent promo. Couldn’t have been better had you paid for it. My maternal breast is swelling with pride.
Cyn: shhh – we aren’t meant to tell anyone that…. until it is too late!!!
WOO HOO! That rocks! Congrats, Jamie!
all hail Lord JFrater the next benevolent overlord of earthly cyberspace
Wow, I’m on a famous website…that kicks mofo butt. Congrats,JFrater!
That’s where I found you – nice page
Yeah that’s where I heard about it.
I knew this site was special. I’m absolutely thrilled for you Jamie (and for us) Long live LISTVERSE!!!
Welcome Mangawitch and lizzie – I hope you enjoy the lists – there are over 700 now!
And thanks everyone else for the compliments
Congratulations on getting on the show! I’m from the Isle of Lewis in Scotland and I’ve been a listverse-lover for ages now. I was delighted when I saw the site finally getting the recognition it has earned on click.
Well done jfrater!
niallags: thanks
I visited Scotland this year – it was a beautiful country!
700 lists now!?! I started coming here when there was only about 20, maybe 20. Found it through gorillamask.net, but don’t go there anymore, its stuff from everywhere else. The first list I really remember was about bizarre video, then you added a couple more bizarre video lists. But the one that freaked me out the most was that video “Begotten”. Creeeppyy, Jamie, really creeppy. That is what got me coming back for more, the obscure and bizarre is what did it for me. Keep up the good work Jamie!
After a good read through of about 20 of your lists I managed to kill over 3 hours and not a moment was dull.
I love this website, but I have only recently decided to comment. I cant believe some of the comments you get. People really have to think about what their saying.
I was watching Click the other day, and that’s how i discover this wonderful site. Keep up the great job.
‘Tis how i found LV too…
I’m a regular viewer of “Click” and even tho it’s rarely longer than 20 minutes, I find it one of the most informed and witty shows of its ilk. The Webscape segment always features at least one site that’s worth a look…
Congrats to JF for the exposure…
Wow. That’s cool. Congrats to Listverse.
now i think the amount of time i spent browsing this site, isn’t waste of time after all.
i saw it a little late.
however makes me feel happy.
good job JFrater.
