I’d almost forgotten Roland Rat - he was aces! Plus lots of obsessively watching the Test Card, waiting for the amazing early morning Open University programmes.
I had a deep laugh at this one before my face scrunched up and my eyes began to water.
I still don’t watch breakfast tv. It’s way too much for me in the morning. I’m all about the radio until lunchtime at the earliest.
I don’t know about the drifting, but we do tend to think of all Americans living in huge houses. Especially compared to our Victorian terraces.
“...unlike the American situation where they drift around their big houses...”
I remember watching this- how exciting it looked! And not being allowed to watch the first day of breakfast tv because it was breakfast time and there was sitting at the dining room table and breakfast eating to be done. I certainly wasn’t allowed to watch GMTV when all my friends loved Roland Rat because it was on…
It was, but now we’ve achieved a better understanding and realise that the problem is ours. We have absurdly small houses by comparison with most countries.
The best part of the whole piece is when they talk about rebroadcasting radio programs on TV. “This could produce the worst of both worlds.”
British person here. We are pretty much rubbing our hands together with glee at the prospect of a Trump visit. Every comedy show is endlessly mocking him and even the newscasters are saying things like”we tried to find someone who supports Trump but we couldn’t find anyone” (this happened twice just in a week). He is…
Of course they adored him! He’s so much of what this family embodies. Do they have a dark side and some eccentricities? Hell yeah - being a Royal is some major mind-fucking shit. But the Queen respects education, levity, class, eloquence and any American that can handle and even flow with the thick skinned British …
Another Friday Night Comedy fan! I fucking love The News Quiz (and I have now followed Sandi Toksvig over to TV as host of QI).
David Miliband is a prick, part of the right wing of Labour who support welfare caps. Good to see the Jez commentariat are as centrist as ever.
You mean attempted Prime Minister Ed Miliband, whose “brilliant” campaigning involved carved his fucking principles on a rock to the tune of £7,000:
The Dump kids are trying their hardest to look like “an American Family in the White House” through social media. For every one of Ivanka’s bullshit family instagram photos, we need to blast her with photos of dying Syrian children in response.
Everyone: People are STILL being detained, since yesterday, at airports. At a lot of crossings Border Patrol Agents are ignoring the federal court’s stay (probably because the White House refuses to give any directives to follow it). People were turned back upon entry last night AFTER the federal court ruling, i.e.…
I loved this response.
Yes, but the Nazis tried to do it for the *right* reasons, whereas the EU wants to take over Britain because of...bendy bananas? I think it was bendy bananas.
It is too bad that the people who laid the ideological groundwork for this man’s crimes - like UKIP leader Nigel Farage - will never see the inside of a courtroom.
