'Dealing responsibly with the activity provoked by a board where 10 regular users have been responsible for nearly 7000 posts concerning one programme just isn't the best use of BBC resources at the moment.'

Jesus, What typically haughty & condescendingly spineless BBC response.
They really don't do themselves any favours sometimes do they :rolleyes:
 
I think it was a 10,000+ post so the remaining 3,000 can be split between genuine complainants and the bloke Lamb and the BBC employed to troll it.
 
If you're in London and you have DAB (and hate Lamb), may I suggest giving NME Radio a try - it has a very good playlist which I've tried to muster some enthusiasm here about before.

Alternatively you can listen online or on Satellite. It really is worth tuning in.
 
He was playing 'Human or Animal' with Gary Numan today where Gary had to guess various noises and decide if they were made by humans or animals :D
 
Never heard of him until I saw him smoke some salvia the other night on the box-on the basis of that programme complete and utter fuck knuckle.
 
His show makes me laugh. These days, that's a good thing.

I amazed some sad types have put together a petition calling for his removal; as if there's less important issues in the world.

Good on you, Lamb & fuck the critics :D

There's nothing sad about listeners to a music station - note: music station - petitioning for the removal of a ridiculous tosser who has admitted that he's utterly clueless abut music.

Lamb would make a great Radio One DJ but he's hideously inappropriate for BBC6. Compare and contract with Cerys Matthews. That's the kind of DJ the station should be employing full time.
 
Lamb serves up an amusing blend of silliness with an eclectic selection of music and japery. Perfect for that time of day.

I do welcome Cerys' stints there whilst Nemone is away. She's completely listenable to.
 
About time Cerys got her own show permanently I reckon. She was brilliant on the Glastonbury coverage. So enthusiastic and warm.
 
Like Chris Moyles only better looking and more stupid. And at least Moyles was bearable when he first started, Lamb outlived his welcome on the first day.

Joy oh joy. It seems that the cock is fucking off from his weekday show.

Excellent news.

Unfortunately 6music is the house station where I work so I have to endure his 'hilarious' antics every morning.

He needs to be evolved. And fast. When's he fucking off then?
 
Richard herring's take on the great man..

Seriously, how has he kept his job so long?

A man, improbably called, Barry Beatmaster, draws Collings idiotic fans' attention to an even more cringe-worthy interview conducted by the notorious George Lamb, who was lucky enough to get a chance to talk to the legendary Ray Davies. He chose to use this opportunity to ask Davies a load of stupid fatuous questions of the "complete this sentence" or "spell this word" variety. For a minute or so, Davies hides his annoyance and gamely has a go at responding, but not surprisingly when he realises that 6Music are going to waste his time and this wonderful opportunity to actually ask some real questions, he bows out with some dignity by pretending the phone line is too bad for him to be able to hear what's going on. He would have been well within his rights to say "What the fuck are you doing? Do you have any idea who I am? You have five minutes to talk to one of the greatest songwriters of the 20th Century and this is how you choose to fill it - are you a cretin?" But he doesn't do that. He quietly takes his leave.

Another broadcaster might have felt embarrassed by this turn of events, possibly apologised, but surely had the decency to simply pretend that they hadn't been able to get Davies back, but Lamb, filled with self-importance, clearly thinking he has more talent than the writer of "Waterloo Sunset", decides instead to deride him. As if the whole debacle was Davies' fault. It is one of the most genuinely offensive pieces of radio I have ever heard and if the BBC had any fibre, the controller of the station should have called Lamb into his office the very minute the show was over and given him his P45. Instead he seems to be getting festooned with awards. Ah well. Perhaps he is right to be furious with someone for having the audacity to think that his dumb questions were a waste of time.

Thank fuck for that. 6 is such a different station at weekends, maybe now I'll be able to listen during the week without wanting to kill someone.
 
I heard he was being moved to the weekend though on R6.


I want to have a grumble and say that I can't abide Liz Kershaw who is on about 1pmish on a Saturday. She starts with a record then interrupts it every week to shout 'hiya it's Liz' she just talks shite and seems to do it slowly as she has nothing original to say.

Agreed, grating northerner is grating.

I hope they fet another musician to fill Lambs slot. Cery's show is a good un precisely because her music knowledge shows.
 
Never listed to his Radio but I know him to be an epic cunt through that "legal highs" BBC3 'documentary' he presented, where he was all dozy dozy and annoying in every single way.

Prickkkkk! :mad:
 
Oh god, please don't put him on at the weekend. Just give him a presenting job on E4 which is where his level so clearly lies. Or even better, take him out back and shoot him.
 
Yeah, he's being shunted off to the weekend, hopefully in some unobtrusive graveyard slot that I'll never catch even by accident*. His replacement for the morning slot is to be Lauren Laverne.

Meanwhile, in other 6music news, Sir Jarvis of Cocker is to get his own regular Sunday afternoon show from January. Hurrah!

I caught 10 seconds of Lamb's 'show' last week by accident- I can't believe he's still doing that tired old 'Shabba!' shit. It's not even his catchphrase ffs:rolleyes:


*Just did a quick google, and he's going to be doing the weekend morning slot, saturdays and sundays, from 7am to 10am. Media Guardian article here
 
There not cutting an hour out of my percious Adam and Joe are they!?

Edit; sorry read the article, "HIYA!!" is going back and hour as well, phew.
