I don't like the never-ending game bits where members of the public ring up and waffle on for ages. But the rest of it is very comforting, cosy listening. I really like it.
Jonathan Ross quits BBC Page 3

Yeah, they are annoying, the bloody public! I usually make myself a cup of tea when they're on. And, if it's cold, blast myself with a hairdryer.
I have to work Saturdays so I've never heard his radio show so I don't know what sort of impact this loss will have. Mind you, if the customers are even more miserable and even bigger twats than they usually are on a Saturday I suppose I will have some measure on his worth to the nation. Conversely they may be in a better mood having not had to listen to him whilst queueing to gain access to the car park.
On a more sensible note, perhaps the BBC could replace him with his more talented sibling, Paul.

I think Paul Ross is too busy on Freeview Channel 23, selling box set DVDs and duvet covers.
Good news, 18 million to spend on new comedy and drama over the next 3 years? Or more likely more reality shows and celebrity games - Dancing on Jonathan Ross on Ice sounds like it could be on the cards?!

Ah I see now.

The same thing happened with a Wolf print T-Shirt a while back. Folks started giving it glowing, if slightly mental, reviews and the thing climbed to the top of the popular items listing... It's nice to see that people can screw around with big business even if it's only in a silly way...
I wonder what we can get to the top of the listing?
Cue Marc...

Yes, I think we'd all like to snooker cue Marc.

A scaffold, with any luck.
