I suppose this should be in Telly Addicts but it's more general than that really. Did anyone else watch it? Brian Sewell and Michael Winner - what *@!?s! Could't they have found slightly more well balanced Southerners? Guess it wouldn't have been so extreme then. Brian Sewell hoping for another flu epidemic so grim Northern cities can be razed to the ground...mmmm.

moo (Mancunian and Proud!)

Are you very young, giraffeski? Am I going to feel ancient? Michael Winner was a film director before he was a food critic

Brian Sewell is fab, can put up with any amounts of amusing nonsense from him. Michael Winner - irritating twonk who has the cheek to try to patronise other people, clearly not realising that everyone KNOWS he's a disgusting old perv.
