What is this called in your house?

Remote here (or if you're Sprog it's the mote troll)

The thing in that picture would be a 'Sky remote'. We have a funky universal job so we just call it the 'remote'. Even this is becoming defunct since Boy got some app thing to control all from his iPad.

It's a plonker!!

Why are the buttons on that one all the wrong way around though!?

Haha! Hadn't even realised - It's from google images

Remote control, or the virgin remote if it's the one for the virgin box.

When I was a kid my friend from down the street used to call it a thumper...no idea why!

The button. That would be the Sky button though, so H doesn't get confused as to which one to hand me...

We call it the box.

The doofa ! Haha

The Doofer! :-)

Growing up it was 'the button box' but I have started saying 'controls' now like OH does, as he thinks my phrase is abnormal. We do both call it 'the dooferer' from time to time though.

Sky remote or remote

OH calls it the doo-dah and I say bleeper. An ex of mine and all his family have always called it the fat controller.

Just the remote to me.

It was always the zapper growing up, my mum now calls it the scotty, ours is now just sadly a remote.

Remote or zapper in this house; sometimes doofer at my parents'.

Apparently it is the object with the most different names!

I call it "the buttons"

H is boring and calls it "the remote"

I call it the 'mote, which really annoys OH as he says it's the REmote!

Zapper when I was growing up. OH calls it the remote and I don't really canal it anything, I only get to use it when OH is out so I just pick it up rather than ask do it!

We just call it the remote.....boring.

My dad calls it the zapper, OH calls it the didge (no idea why). I use either.

Just the remote in our house but one of my friends call theres the 'bleep bleep'

x

In my family - Remote, Sky remote, TV remote, remote controller.. in OH's family, they seem to call it 'Grunger' - bugs the hell out of me!

It's the didge.

Growing up we called it a switcher-swatcher. Now I usually just call it the remote.

I call it the buttons or the remote sometimes clicker and sometimes just thingy-majig

H says doof but I don't know why and he hates when I say buttons!!

Nowadays I call it the remote, but when I lived with my parents it was a hoofer-doofer. No idea where some of these words come from.

Growing up it was the channel changer. Now we call it the remote, but because we have 4 we normally specify which, so sky remote for that one.

Growing up - buttons or telly buttons.

Now just remote.

H's parents call it the remoter or the goat.

Tis the 'buttons' in our house!

We call it the control, sometimes TV control.

Telly Commander... we like it 'cos it sounds a bit Star Trek-y ?
