Melanie Phillips is losing the plot and I want to throw my supper at her because she's stupid?

Bloody irritating isn't she?

Glittertwins · 26/01/2012 23:44

Which one is she? I only walked in part way through and had no idea who was on. Chap it the end in purple shirt was annoying too!

The one on the right...the vinegar faced preacher wearing the BOMB IRAN badge :)

Nice! I'll keep the telly off. QT often has me wanting to shout at tv which isn't conducive to a good sleep!!

Glad i didn't put it on. She always make me want to punch my TV.

She's been speaking at the audience expelling views of her wisdom for 30 of the programs 50 minutes .....the nice Dimbleby man was thinking about shoving her off her soapbox a few times.

You could see it in his face.

She's dire isn't she. Shouting at the telly here. Lots of interesting women out there, WHY they invite her back so regularly I don't know! BBC could do a lot better with their panel members. Germain Greer was excellent the other week.

She is talking utter shit. She does sound like a number of the prominent posters who are in the benefits threads tearing people apart.

foglike · 26/01/2012 23:57

The bit about the end of days and just stopping short of the rapture was when I saw the panel visually sigh.

Jeremy Browne is also very annoying.

Would have love to see Mark Steele's expressions as she ranted, mind. The one picture I've seen on twitter is priceless :o

Kellogg · 27/01/2012 00:00

Yes Mark Steele's faces have been a definite highlight tonight.

foglike · 27/01/2012 00:04

He was amazed and I think he believes truly that she's lost it.

I suppose the difference between the panel and Phillips is that they knew they were talking shit whereas she ranted and believed what she was spouting is normal.
