Windknot Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Ross and Brand should be sacked- if this puerile "comedy" is the best these supposed geniuses can come up with then the BBC could very well replace them with a pair of ferrets and spend the money on making new programs intead of endless reruns. And while we're cleaning house, let's get rid of Bill Oddie too! (I'm sure he left lewd messages on my answerphone...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mudpatten Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 From a slightly different perspective. With this sort of moral degeneracy and the spineless vacillating by the BBC mandarins it is small wonder that Muslims take the view of the West that they do. Nick.

Imperfection Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Why should Ross and Brand be persecuted? The show was pre-recorded and the contents should have been scrutinised before airing.The fault lies with who ever agreed to it being aired.Both Brand & Ross are controversial broadcasters and the beeb know this-why else were they employed?

urikastu Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Just another nail in the coffin they call the beeb Time they closed it down and told 'em all to get a proper job, as if they could Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustyfox Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Right Im no big fan of Brand but I do like to watch Ross's shows. This radio show happened last week? they only received 2 complaints when it was aired, now that Satanic Georgina Baillie is selling her story to the sun and published it the bbc has received 10000 complaints. The people who complained and did not listen to it are jumping on the bandwagon. Andrew Sachs just wanted an apology, its his granddaughter that wants sorting out.

Harnser Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 What makes me laugh about these so called celebs (and i cannot stand any of them ) is that they are quick to complain if their privacy is brought out into the open ,but these two failed abortions are prepard to flaunt other peoples private lives .

poontang Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 I didn't listen to the show so can't really comment. I like both Jonathon Ross and Russell Brand. Fawlty towers was rubbish. I've never heard of the 'Stupid Sluts' or whatever they're called. The BBC are, indeed, a disgrace. I really couldn't care less!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Fawlty Towers - Classic. I like Jonathan Ross, but he is limited. Russell Brand - if he is funny, I will plait sawdust. Looks like a pantomime dame. Short in the talent and brain department. Looks like a potential village idiot to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ME Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 We listened to that part of the radio broadcast at work today on youtube and laughed out loud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axe Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 This may be so.... but why should Mr Sachs be subjected to abuse, hes the injurred party. He shouldn't have had to put up with it at all Mike, not at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breadster50 Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 He shouldn't have had to put up with it at all Mike, not at all. Very true. Brand is unstable; that's his excuse. Ross is immature and out of control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agusta Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 Its gone way over the top, and by the sounds of it Ross was the one who started it: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=U7IHJ66wj9g Really he should have resigned, instead he has had a 12 week suspension without pay.

Imperfection Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 Im still amazed that over 10,000 people have now complained yet when it was first broadcast-they received less than 1,500 complaints out of around 3 million listeners.Everyone else has literally jumped on the bandwagon and is just complaining for the sake of it. I think the media are stirring up a hornets nest because they know everyone is bored stiff of hearing about how bad the economy is and they're desperate for new headlines or even to deflect the publics attention away from possible recession...like Argentina did 1982!

amateur Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 (edited) Can't be bothered with him. I've never forgiven him nor Cilla Black for being such total ****holes at an unveiling of a plaque to Frankie Howerd sponsored by the "Dead Comics Society". At the time the only human amongst the "celebrities " present was a long forgotten comedian/actor Harry Fowler Edited October 30, 2008 by amateur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urikastu Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 (edited) Just a bit of useless info! The last I heard it was upto 30,000 complaints. Ross even though suspended is still getting his 16,000 a day wages off the BBC AND THAT MY DEAR CHERUBS IS A HELL OF A LOT OF LICENSE FEE YOU ME AND THE BRITISH PEOPLE ARE FORKING OUT TO ONE HELL OF AN *******!! sorry cranfield Edited October 30, 2008 by urikastu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
