Those morons on BBC Breakfast News.

[Captain Hurrah]

the today programme is basically a middle class version of gmtv.

lol.

 

[DotCommunist]

Virgin medias star trek afternoons (tng, voyager, ds9) were largely responsible for my worklessness circa 2009

That and my massive laziness obvs

 

[rollinder]

Fantastic telly, do you remember the halloween special which had an actual vampire in it? No one believes me about that but I know I didn't imagine it.

probably from series two

The episode about vampires will certainly appeal to fans of Bram Stoker & Arthur Conan-Doyle - it is one of the darker , sombre and more powerful installments of season two.

The BBC obviously tries very, very hard to find such vacuous people to dribble banal idiocy with such assurance and certainty.

Here's Charlie Stayt and Louise Minchin. Have a good look at them:

I turned on this morning to catch the last of the election results. But was treated to this pair. Here's what they actually said. This is a true and accurate report.

The one on the left said: "Owls don't have legs, do they?" The one on the right replied: "Not in my world".

What can I say?

How the fuck did I miss this

 

[frogwoman]

what do they think owls have then

 

[danny la rouge]

Your mistake is in the fourth word.

 

[ViolentPanda]

If they've still go that John Stape(lton) stick thin tory ranter on GMTV then they should be firebombed and the ground salted afterwards.


He turned up on a beeb docu about the brixton riots, oozing disbelief in the footage where he spoke to people on the ground. Then as a talking head admitting he might have been wrong.

The man is a huge gaping shitpipe.

And Lorraine Kelly is also a horrible woman, her softy mumsy sun column toryism is shit.

Stapleton is a total wanker, but that could be what happens to any man who's married to Lynn Faulds-Woods, old mrs. "potential death trap" as we used to call her when she did "Watchdog".

Still, he was a right tosser when he used to alternate with Kilroy on "The Time, The Place", too.

 

[ViolentPanda]

There's your answer. People who like sci fi comic books don't like Bill Bryson.

Not true. I like both.

 

[ViolentPanda]

Oh for the days when some bloke just read out the news,no fucking small talk,no banter,no trying to be funny

And he did it with a proper accent, none of your regional nonsense!!

 

[ViolentPanda]

what do they think owls have then

Flippers.

 

[danny la rouge]

Not true. I like both.

A true Renaissance Man.

 

[ViolentPanda]

A true Renaissance Man.

This is true, due to my also having a fondness for poisoning family members.

 

[danny la rouge]

I was thinking more akin to Bertand Russell than the Borgias.

 

[krtek a houby]

Not true. I like both.

Can I recommend this to you? Bertie is in it, the star, if you will...

 

[ViolentPanda]

I was thinking more akin to Bertand Russell than the Borgias.

Colour me disappointed.

Oddly, I'm currently reading "Proposed Roads to Freedom", purely because of the charming naivety Bertrand displays.

Stayt the obvious....and she wasnt minchin her words either....

The sports presenter has just said "We have a little bit of a Wimbledon champion coming up. No, not Andy."
I never realised he ever won Wimbledon.

 

[danny la rouge]

I wonder which bit?

 

[bmd]

Legs.

 

[danny la rouge]

Legs.

Not in my world.

 

[youngian]

She's also a scab. Fucking detest Carol Kirkwood.

When TVam was faced a strike in the 80s it showed Batman instead and its audience figures rocketed.
The rump presenters invited Adam West to appear but he refused to cross the picket line. Bet you wouldn't get that level of solidarity from Christian Bale.

I often get this notion it will be a good idea to watch the news while eating breakfast to keep myself abreast of the current goings on in the world.

I am then confronted by a twee Bill Turnbull making quips about some story out of Femail.

 

[andysays]

New other-worldly creature discovered in Antarctic. "It's like an owl, but with legs," say scientists

 

[FridgeMagnet]

Clumsy photoshop job if you ask me. Look at the join between the "legs" and the owl, shadows are completely wrong.

I saw a site explaining the shadows. It had arrows and everything.

Well if you will go to these conspiracy websites you'll hear all sorts of stuff. I bet there was a page about how the Sparrow didn't shoot Cock Robin too.

 

[Nine Bob Note]

I'm bored. And back in 2003.

I was prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt until his "war reporting" for GMTV from Iraq.

Well, not exactly Iraq, but a balcony in a swish hotel in Kuwait. Wore his little flak jacket on-screen during his daily reports for weeks/months, just to show what a heroic "war reporter" he was.

 

[not-bono-ever]

I think BIll Turnbull is a bit of a boy beneath the cloying mugging he does with whoever is next to him. I bet he has skeletons in the cupboard

as an aside, I was chatting to that Jeremy Bowen some years ago when I was flogging agit prop in framing shop ( he was getting a war spoils oil painting of Saddam framed up - well cool ) and asking what happend with his breakfast gig- effectively he couldnt hack it any more, was desperate to get back into the fray. Then he jumped into his 1990s battered toyota lancruiser , timberland booted the throttle and fucked off back to camberwell.

I was well jel for the rest of the day
