A propaganda unit for the liberal-left.

EH?
They've had that nobber Farage on Question Time 38 times and he's hardly the liberal left.

Do you mean Baldrick or Tony Robinson?

Mary Berry. I never think her smile quite reaches her eyes. Do I need to grab my passport and flee?

Echoing another post Lenny Henry was also really unpleasant to my sister so we have beef. And I’m chucking in Paul McCartney for ruining every national event with Hey Jude. The only song more dirgey than the National Anthem.

I’m really pleased Mark Gatiss is lovely. I adore him and his work. It’s been mentioned but The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui @ the RSC was one of the best things I have ever seen.

Ant McPartlin. No idea why he regained the love of the public after his terrible behaviour.

Love Dec though

Stephen Fry...tedious. Except as Jeeves or Melchett, which he was obviously born to play. So SF as himself I guess!

Never watched Jeeves cos I detest fry….i won’t even give him the curtesy of a capital letter!

Jonathan Ross always hated the slimey fucker.

I wouldn’t have considered Jonathan Ross a ‘national treasure’. Don’t think I e ever met anyone who did like him .

He sounds like a bastard then. Surprised he didn’t help you. Must have an obscene amount of money. Would have thought better of Paul McCartney tbh, if that’s all true.

And @xabimunich3
Although I’ve already confessed about PM - I do think he is quite philanthropic and does give.

There was lots of interesting information, in the museum in Campbell Town, near their farm, which told of the normal lives they lived up there and the large amount of support, including financial given to the town.

He also put time into co-founding LIPA including attracting major funding.

Lulu is annoying. I am not a fan, but she can sing.
Was never keen on Brucie , he ruined strictly by making it about him. They did a nice tribute to him though.

Just accidentally caught Lulu singing at the proms. Her very forgettable song for Man with a Golden Gun.

I would like to dispute the statement that she can sing. She can milk a crowd, for sure, and has good hair, but that isn’t really the same thing is it.

Tony robinson he wrote a book about his life and it was very weird the way he spoke about sex and women, hes very odd and shows if youre famous you can always get a book published,.just talking about his sexual experiences as if woman are objects and how he was grabbing at this womens boobs and he giggled like a child, made me feel sick

Mary Berry, unbearable rude snob to anyone she deals with. Everyone that works locally hates her and with good reason

RamALamADingDong2 · 29/08/2026 20:25

The BBC (ducks for cover)

I've loathed the BBC since 2020, with their complicity in frightening the pants off the public, and everyone believed and trusted them because they were the BBC.

Monty Don - why?

Went off Monty when I learned that Long meadows is just a made up name for TV!

Have only read first four pages so far, but agree with most.

Esther Rantzen
Brunch Forsyth
Cilla Black
Jonathan Ross
Jimmy Carr

Could not stand David Walliams or Russell Brand, right from the start. Something always felt off, and I remember saying, "they'll be next" before various allegations/ cancellation.

A PP summed up Miriam's "appeal"... saying cunt in a posh accent. Her actual words tell us who she is, and I believe her. Crude and uncouth (and I say that as the Village scruffbag).

I don't mind David Mitchell in small doses, but why oh why is he everywhere now?

True! Totally agree.
I think Dec is an angel though.
