Why do they keep bringing brexit up????

redshoeblueshoe · 11/09/2016 19:24

And how many times are they going to mention Brexit ?

Vango · 11/09/2016 19:24

I'm dying here. Can feel my own heart pounding. No new revelations then.

SidneyPiecrust · 11/09/2016 19:24

I'm out, what a load of xxxxxxx

PinkSquash · 11/09/2016 19:24

This is utterly abysmal

Scorbus · 11/09/2016 19:24

Someone put Catherine Tate back in her stereotype box

BringMeTea · 11/09/2016 19:24

Oh dear. Execrable. Much much worse than I expected. Utter rubbish. The stereotypes! The overacting! The script!!!!!

This jury is so depressing. It is just a bunch of awful cliches - although rather believe that than think it's realistic. That would be enormously depressing!

Now this posh guy is trying to sway the other one! Awful!

LikeDylanInTheMovies · 11/09/2016 19:25

Are all juries this thick?

Compared to the jury I served on, this lot are the Brains Trust.

redshoeblueshoe · 11/09/2016 19:26

OMG - special biscuits

HalsallRedux · 11/09/2016 19:26

Catherine Tate's character couldn't be any more of a stereotypical puppet if she was on Thunderbirds. And they're all talking over each other.

I presume SOC is congratulating himself mightily on distilling his own experience on 3 juries (that's THREE juries, people) into this godawful mess.

chillipopcorn1 · 11/09/2016 19:26

Oh my GOD! 'Parveen I like your headscarf...so you're a pharmacist?' Just to bang the final nail in the stereotype coffin we have an Asian pharmacist being clumsily signposted. This is really outrageous. What an opportunity wasted.

Vango · 11/09/2016 19:26

Hopefully the more quiet ones will get their say in the second half and change the direction they seem to be going in.

buckingfrolicks · 11/09/2016 19:27

I'm with you Bringmetea. This is bilge.

Cliches. Shoddy. Cheap.

People are not this stupid surely?

Mootsie · 11/09/2016 19:28

The foreman (Nigel Havers) is starting to sound like Rob.

SafariSoGood · 11/09/2016 19:28

Patronising git

redshoeblueshoe · 11/09/2016 19:28

Condescending misogynist twat

RamsayBoltonsConscience · 11/09/2016 19:28

Something pretty to look at! FFS,

Mootsie · 11/09/2016 19:28

There's a good girl Angry

SafariSoGood · 11/09/2016 19:28

Well put Red

JudyCoolibar · 11/09/2016 19:29

Come on Eileen, we need a Henry Fonda speech from you.

HairsprayBabe · 11/09/2016 19:29

That posh guy chairing is a cunt... "good girl" WTAF goes back to lurking

ImperialBlether · 11/09/2016 19:29

Who just said "There's a good girl..."?

I just screamed at the radio!

BurnTheBlackSuit · 11/09/2016 19:29

I don't actually care which way this goes, so long as it ends soon. It's AWFUL!
