Apparently Marbles is claiming that the pie was produced by a subordinate and he had no knowledge of it's content.

"Your wife has a very good left hook". Tom Watson.

in his shabby brown checked shirt among all the suits.

"a White substance in the face"

I cannot believe that's the description the BBC decided was most appropriate.

crazynanna · 19/07/2011 17:27

BOF The "subordinate" being an 80 yr old man.

"a White substance in the face"

I can. It makes it more dramatic, more newsworthy than just saying "what looks like shaving foam".

mrsdonkeybucket · 19/07/2011 17:29

Hacking is wrong.

Paying Police is wrong.

No, Mr. Murdoch Senior, it's not just wrong, it's illegal.

Just to be pedantic.

mrsdonkeybucket · 19/07/2011 17:30

Was it defintely shaving foam ? Not squeezee cream ?

londonone · 19/07/2011 17:31

His shirt is v white. I think he bought a new one for today!

mrsdonkeybucket · 19/07/2011 17:31

Squeezee cream STINKS. Especially if it's warm.

claig · 19/07/2011 17:32

And so the "grilling" ends with 80 year old "humble" Murdoch in his shirtsleeves (ready for business) and apologies to Murdoch. What a turnaround.

mrsdonkeybucket · 19/07/2011 17:33

I do hope it doesn't dominate the news.

Specially with RB coming next.

Right, whose going for the takeaway, now, or later ?

grumpypants · 19/07/2011 17:33

hooray - found this thread during the break. hope this is a sensible debate and not just one on how to get shaving foam out of a shirt.

BitOfFun · 19/07/2011 17:33

I hope the Pie Man also likes porridge, because I'm guessing he'll being doing more than anyone from News International.

mrsdonkeybucket · 19/07/2011 17:34

Live up to your name, grumpypants. Smile

We are discussing things as they happen, is all.

whitewave · 19/07/2011 17:34

londonone --well we don't know if they are or not but my point is that if they are so dodgy in some areas it would be worth looking at others, did someone menton the lack of invoices?

chipstick10 · 19/07/2011 17:35

I dont like attacks like that but i make an exception when its peter mandleson trying on green paint.

grumpypants · 19/07/2011 17:36

mrsd - was joking. I find Ace bleach good.

flippinada · 19/07/2011 17:37

Way to go Johnnie Marbles you fucking moron, you just managed to make RM look sympathetic.

mrsdonkeybucket · 19/07/2011 17:38

I know ! Cor, people are so serious !

Will just be able to purchase a new one, on expenses, wont he ? Wink

(Maybe even a generous MPs expense ?)

flippinada · 19/07/2011 17:38

I mean, I'm guessing that wasn't his intention. What a nob.

mrsdonkeybucket · 19/07/2011 17:40

No need for it at all. Just made himself look a prat.

grumpypants · 19/07/2011 17:40

get me up to speed - which one is jonny marbles?

flippinada · 19/07/2011 17:42

Johnnie(sp) Marbles = the one who shoved a 'pie' in RM's face.

mrsdonkeybucket · 19/07/2011 17:42

He's gone now. Some idiot who tried to chuck a shaving foam pie at RM. Backfired as Mrs. M shot up and left hooked it into his face.
