They rebuilt the studio, in another building.
Quite expensive for a one off... It looked like Grimmy was being primed for the job.

Thought it was okay but nothing special for about the first half of the show but it got boring towards the end especially when Lewis Hamilton came on and they started talking about his meetings and what colour his doors where for about the last 45 minutes, yawn!

I enjoyed some bits, disliked others and was indifferent to the rest of the filling in-between. I don't recall being overly disappointed when it kicked off the air first time round, in fact, I don't even remember it being kicked off the air to be honest. Without specifically looking it up I couldn't tell you when either.
When I watched the show last night I drew the exact same conclusions. Some it was good, some of it not so good, while other bits were just 'meh'. They showed many highlights from its initial run - I remembered very few. I guess, much like what people claim about the 60s, if you are able to remember loads of stuff from an early evening light-entertainment show during the 90s then you really weren't there. 
I thought Roger Daltrey completely upstaged Liam Gallagher during their duet performance of 'My Generation' - perhaps not surprisingly - but, in my opinion, Liam's performance was particularly woeful as he first, tried to do the track in his usual style (which didn't work) then attempted to mimic Daltrey himself. Really Bad. Blur's performance was nothing to write home about too but there was, at least, a reason for that. I enjoyed Beatbox Collective and Rudimental. The other band featuring that Justin Timberlake sounding Eminem lookalike as lead vocalist really bored and irrated me.
Most of the segments were passable but none really stood out. I vaguely remembered some features but there were others which struck no chord with me. Like Jimmi, I also found the Lewis Hamilton interview rather boring. I enjoyed the rapid interview feature though.
On another note, I'm really looking forward to This Is England '90. Can't wait.
Thought Blur were atrocious, until it was revealed that Allbran had a bad throat.
Daltrey looked like DLT!
I also think they tried squeezing too much in and at times, fell on its face. Even though it ran over.
