when he (taylor) is so irritating and does not even like the church, while I went all the way to Rome for Easter and did not even get a glimpse Angry

I read that as 'Paypal' audience.

Alameda · 03/06/2012 22:44

haha and one for me too please

apart from anything else, he is ORANGE and that must be why he lives in the radio?

David Dickinson is orange too but I don't remember him having a Paypal audience?

BarryShitpeas · 03/06/2012 22:46

Alameda · 03/06/2012 22:47

I dont know who Lawrie Taylor is.

They should give Richard Dawkins a Papal Audience, I would pay to see that one.

scottishmummy · 04/06/2012 02:05

who is Laurie Taylor
I read it as paypal audience too

Laurie Taylor from 'Thinking Allowed'? Ooh I like his programme. Didn't know he was Orange. What on earth is he doing that for? Haven't they both got better things to do? He is an ethnographer though so I suppose it's the ultimate in ethnographic gigs. Even if he IS Orange.

I heard Laurie Taylor speak at a conference, and he was excellent. I used to love his column in the TES.

I would be very interested to hear about his conversations with the Pope! Dawkins would be too confrontational and aggressive. I live Dawkins, but he wouldn't be right for this.

I think Dennis Taylor should be given a papal audience.

lovebunny · 04/06/2012 10:36

i think mr taylor from the bakery should be given a papal audience.

hackmum · 04/06/2012 10:50

Laurie Taylor is brilliant. He used to do a fantastic column in the New Statesman and now does an excellent one in the New Humanist. Thinking Allowed is an absolute gem - a genuinely intelligent programme that doesn't patronise its audience. What's not to like?

Trills · 04/06/2012 10:51

I am like Worra and wondered what a PayPal audience was.

I have no idea why you are aggrieved. I don't know who that is and frankly the pope can have a chat to whoever he likes, it doesn't make a difference to me.

tethersend · 04/06/2012 11:45

I think Taylor Dane should be granted a papal audience.

edam · 04/06/2012 11:53

I can think of few things more tedious than spending a week trailing round with the Pope. Unless he's going to ask him about child abuse - that would be interesting.

kittyandthefontanelles · 04/06/2012 13:13

Edam, I wouldn't put it past him. Hackmum, exactly.
