Very strange Jason going over his Twittering. I suppose he left the BBC to save his marriage? The Daily Bun had him over a barrel

Not a happy state of affairs. Are the MESSAGE sites causing a lot of trouble in relationshipsa?

I do Twitter, but have never bothered with the FOLLOWER thing.

I have no idea what you are talking about, but I did think that Screechy Welsh woman would have acknowledged it last night.

Why blame twitter? whats the difference between twitter, texting, actually sleeping with someone. IS wayne rooney worse than Vernon Kaye (tess dalys dh), worse than jason ?
I think not. all similar.

Jason Manford RESIGNED as a result of what happened on Twitter

pointydog · 23/11/2010 19:42

I only caught him and the welsh bird on the show a couple of times. Both seem uncomfortable and a bit rubbish.

RoobyMurray · 23/11/2010 19:43

what are the MESSAGE sites? Confused

He asked for nudey pics from this moose on twitter a few weeks ago. She sent them then he told her he was having a w@@k over them she went to the press.

Roll on a few weeks. The press find out he's been sending saucy messages via video Skype with 12 women. They told him and he left before they were printed.

I think he left before he was pushed.

What an idiot though. His wife's about to have a baby any day now.

sharbie · 23/11/2010 21:17

course he resigned ijmo Wink

Jason Manford, for example, is a twat.

FB and Twitter are not to blame in relatinships. The kind of person who is likely to do this would find other means. FB and Twitter are fine for most people, idiots are idiots regardless of their existence.

He had to resign. Can hardly host a family orientated show when he is publically found looking for saucy pics of RL people just as his wife is about to give birth.

Right, so a married man in the public eye asked another woman to send him naughty pictures, on a public message site where anyone can sign up to see what messages you are sending? (if I've got it right, I'm not on Twitter?)

Surely he was fired because he was so titanically thick? If Twitter hadn't existed, he'd presumably have announced his nocturnal activities live on air, or got a crossed line (remember those?) between his lover and his mother or something. Nowt to do with technology.

No he sent the messages privately to her and to do that he would have to have been following her.

I also think he slagged off the bbc bosses in some of his tweets which would have been available for everyone to see.

sunshineriver · 23/11/2010 21:50

Aww, I really liked him - shame he's a cheating git
