Yes it is MrsDeVere bet we're not the only ones to just to that conclusion- he's talks down to women in an awful way and he was supposed to have been a nasty piece if work to anthea turner not that I particularly like her either

Eamon Holmes got very upset at Jon Culshaw's frighteningly accurate impersonation of him being a pompous fat cunt, and he write a Cease and Desist letter to the BBC. Who promptly caved like the spineless cunts they are and cut the sketch.

No I don't. I don't know why I said that. Well actually I do, it's fucking snowing again and I'm pissed off so just thought fuck it.

I can't believe I'm going to say this because its frighteningly mumsnetish, but what has his weight got to do with it?

My sentiments entirely.
I'm sure he's a pretty normal and nice person (ish). Just too many partner-put-downs and insensitive conversations completely lacking in what would look like genuine sympathy.

According to the mirror newspaper Ruth is the boss. Apparently he would like nothing more than upping sticks and going round the world but its she who wants the fame. She instigates there little domestics that apparently can be viewed online or something equally naff, I can't quite remember the whole story. According to the mirror she wears the trousers.

The wife is much worse Angry
Not sure why she brings that emotion out in me. Could be the talentless presenting skils?
