Matthew Wright's face looks like haemmorrhoid ridden bum hole. Discuss.

Has there been a 'parent in jail' thread or have they made this one up especially for Great Train Robber man?

Watched a few times, and stopped. The research is so shoddy I've seen them present something which is blatantly untrue as a statistical fact. Either the researchers are really really really stupid or they just didn't even bother to research and made it up. And the audience and guests just believed it?! I sat there knowing the real facts, fuming, then switched off when I couldn't bear to listen any more

Bet they are just nicking half the topics off here

I've noticed this too, saddos

I love watching the Wright stuff but today's subjects are just do blatantly knocked from here . Do you think his being off sick meant the researchers got lazy?

Fanjango · 06/08/2013 10:50

They have even screen shot the thread!!!

And they've got the Amazon book one coming up. They must have saved that one from the other week.

I bought the Mirror the other day and there was an article on boring attractions eg pencil factory - sure it was lifted from the thread here a few days earlier!

The Internet makes researchers lazy. Sad but true.
At least they credited mumsnet in the end and had a screenshot of the thread.

MN is always on The Matthew Wright Show. Grin
Some are lifted completely from here - he had a whole section of TWS discussing where your clock should lie on your mantlepiece, and also one about a holiday/ wedding thread (it was something like that anyway.)
Both were current threads at the time.
He professes to hate MNetters and say they spend too much time on there but for something he hates so much he sure spends a lot of time on here (or if not him, his researchers do! Grin )
We need to plant silly threads just to see if they end up on there, lol!

So Friggin where can I get my hands on one of them 'baby whips' ?
Friend has a lazy baby ;-)

I'm only here because MW mentioned Mumsnet so often that I thought I'd take a look.

At one point I thought he was being paid to give MN so many mentions.Grin
