Very sad to hear of Caroline Flack taking her own life....she was an excellent personality and TV presenter.....again this is an example of the price of fame....you put yourself in that position and you become a target for the media to utilise you as news to justify their jobs and not giving a toss about your feelings....she was recently reported by her boyfriend for GBH but he dropped the complaint but the police decided to take it further.....so I hope the police and the media are happy now no...

The news has been dominated by the weather and the Corona virus....both of which being sensationalised as usual by the media....on one hand we are being told that the virus is under control then on the other it is a serious threat....which makes sure we are all put into panic mode...then we have the floods and high speed winds with reporters standing on promenades with waves splashing up like they always do this time of the year...and rivers bursting their banks and flooding villages....like the...

The Chinese virus is headlining the news with holiday makers being quarantined in our local hospital....Arrowe Park....they have to spend two weeks in solitary to make sure they don't have the virus......this hasn't gone down too well with the locals but the reason is it's close to the Royal Hospital in Liverpool which has a tropical disease section and any problems with those at Arrowe Park will be dealt with there.....plus the media keep referring to THE Wirral which as you know grates on us.....

With the loss of Terry Jones comedy has lost one of its geniuses...he was part of the Monty Python team who were so far ahead of their time....long before comedy was ruined by so called political correctness which has left us with zero humour distributed by 12th rate "comedians"...The Life of Brian was a masterpiece and totally summed up the stupidity of the majority of the human race...and what made it even funnier was all the pompous critics who totally missed the point of it...especially the ...

Now I've heard it all.....wait for it...speed bumps on side roads are being blamed for adding to climate change according to "experts"...because it causes cars to brake and the dust from the brake pads gets into the atmosphere and could obviously effect the climate....I'm not quite sure what planet these "experts" are from.....so the answer is obviously to take the speed bumps away and allow the brainless morons to think they are Lewis Hamilton and hope they don't kill too many pedestrians.....t...

The Iranian crisis has been heavily covered on the news with everyone having an opinion as to what will happen next.. Then we have the the fires in Australia which are REAL problems....we sit back and watch it all unfold on the news and comment on how awful it is but when you give it a bit of deeper thought it is...... On a lighter note we have a selection of new game shows on our TVs...."Cash Strapped" which features Bradley Walsh who is never off our screens... I took my 5 year old Grandson to...

After all the panic buying and aggression in the shops and traffic totally out of control with cars racing around and honking horns it is finally over and we can get back to normal.....it's ONE DAY!!! that's all. And as for the television over the Christmas period....again I despair....rubbish films and repeats of quiz shows....pure garbage on virtually every channel....even finding a decentfilm on Netflix is a major job......... And on the subject of television I would love to know what is the ...

The election is over.....the Conservatives wiped out Labour with Jeremy Corbyn being blamed...because as we know in this country SOMEONE always has be blamed....so now it seems we are back to where we were all those years ago....and those who voted for Labour still aren't satisfied and on we go....I made one of my rare appearances at the polling booth which is a waste of time on our peninsula as labour always get in...as indeed they did this year....the only time I enjoyed the elections was when...

Again we have a bit of racism and misbehaviour at a football match....this time it was the Manchester derby when some idiot threw a lighter and hit one of the players and someone else did "racist" monkey chants.....and what do we get..."It's lack of education"....when will the top brass in football realise you can't "educate" morons who are solid bone from the neck up.....perhaps some of the money they make could be used on modern technology to spot these low life and ensure they are banned fore...

The London terror attack has been headlining the news....and questions being asked as to why the terrorist,who had been in jail,was released early.....and needless to say the politicians wade in blaming their opposition.. I used to produce demos for people who would send me their rough versions of their songs and I would put them into a presentable state to send to publishers....one of the songs has always remained in my mind... have been watching the TV series of The Crown which Is quite brilli...

.I am not a fan of Prince Andrew but I find it disgraceful how the media have treated the situation turning it into a witch hunt....at this point in time there is no proof whatsoever as to any wrongdoing on his part....certainly nothing illegal...but the media pile in trying to find something to fill their newspapers or news rogrammes....the latest BIG NEWS is he went riding with his mother...so what...and Nicholas Witchell reporting on nothing from outside the Palace on a dark rainy night which...

Prince Andrew has hit the news headlines after his recent interview on the BBC....where he virtually denies all wrongdoing in the Epstein scandal....an appearance I felt was somewhat misguided.......... The TV Children In Need annual fundraising event has raised over 47 million pounds which will go towards a good cause....however with certain political parties promising to donate BILLIONS to better the country not forgetting intended high speed rail routes going BILLIONS over budget....... On th...

All this tripe about political correctness where you can't say this and you can't say that because it might offend someone, is becoming very tiresome....not to mention the 100 different genders we can choose from...this just proves how polite and tolerant the general public are by putting up with this garbage....when one of these publicity seeking characters come up with,for example, the expression"ladies and gentlemen" possibly being offensive or the many other stupid opinions it needs someone ...

Bonfire night is upon us once again...so as usual the hospitals will have plenty to do dealing with burns and damaged eyesight...personally I cannot see the point of watching money go up in smoke to the sound of OOOH!... AHH!... from onlookers....but then again I appreciate some folk have nothing better to do ....we have just had the wonderful American import "Trick or Treat" which brought out the youths of certain parts of Merseyside throwing bricks through car windows and throwing stones at ho...

Why doesn't ITV understand that the viewers want to hear what the presenters on Good Morning Britain and the guests are saying....they don't want to listen to them all arguing and shouting at the same time....it's like an aviary full of crows,,,, I have enjoyed Strictly Come Dancing for many years....I like it because it involves actual TALENT from both the professionals and from the judges....plus the spectacle of athletic guys and beautifully sculpted ladies gliding across the dance floor.with...

The BBC have received some criticism regarding their broadcasts from outside Parliament with protesters shouting out around them and waving banners across the screen....the question was asked as to why they do not interview politicians in a studio instead of giving publicity to brainless protesters....and as usual their answer was "because that is how we have always done it"...which is supposed to make it alright......a perfect example was the climate change protester standing on the top of a tr...

In the world today we have wars going on,we have hurricanes destroying lives,we have increasing knife crime and what do we get on the news....an argument between the wives of footballers Jamie Vardy and Wayne Rooney......and this is NEWS!!..... When will the world realise that we haven't all evolved at the same rate?...there are humans out there still evolving......an example of which were at the England/Bulgaria game causing it to be halted because of their racist chants.. The climate changers ...

Knife crime is at it's highest .level in this country especially in London which isn't helped by a mayor with a peanut for a brain....so you would think it's hardly the place to have a pointless march by moronic climate changers who block the main roads requiring the police to waste valuable time sorting them out......the stupid march won't make the slightest difference.. Prince Harry has caused a bit of a stir by announcing he is taking the press to court.....he feels him and Meghan have been b...

There was an interesting item on the morning news regarding gun crime in the U.S.A.....they had an ex policeman talking about how he runs courses teaching young kids how to protect themselves should someone come into the school and start shooting at everybody.... Boris is still hanging on in there trying to sort the country out despite being accused of touching a woman's knee 20 years ago....if this was part of a novel you would never believe it....what the hell this pathetic allegation has to d...

Thomas Cook,the worlds oldest travel agent have hit the headlines with the announcement that they've gone bust....which has naturally caused panic amongst holiday makers who are either due to go abroad or who are already there and don't know how they will get back....a nasty situation indeed but it does show the true colours of some of the "friendly hosts"....in Turkey for example a hotel has locked holiday makersin until they get the money owed to them....you know...those wonderful caring frien...

According to some half wit who appeared on the ITV morning news programme there are 100 different choices as to what gender you want to be.....so now it's not just LBGTQyou can add on another 95 "genders"....so there you go.....and this nut case is actually given television time to tell us that this is what children should be taught in school....Piers Morgan had a field day with this fool.....he told him it was like interviewing Dianne Abbot....because she didn't know what she was talking about ...
Sep 18, 2019
I never thought I would say this but it's GOOD to see Piers Morgan back on ITV in the morning....the programme was rapidly sinking with the poor replacement presenters while he was away.... I have always been a fan of Judge Rob Rinder....until now....He has been given a chat show on channel 4....I watched 15 minutes of it and turned it off... Bury football team have been headlining the news with their removal from the football league....which they have been in for over a hundred years...as we ke...

The fools who made a joke about the burning of the Grenfell Tower by making an effigy of it burning and which ended up on social media were taken to court and the case was thrown out....this has naturally not only caused distress to the victims it has also caused a public outcry.....but the point is there was no case because there was no offence.....the activity was sick and tasteless but didn't break any laws.........nowadays we seem to think you have to be careful what you say in case someone ...

Prince Andrew has hit the news regarding his connection with Epstein the billionaire who was jailed for under age sex trafficking....and has since allegedly committed suicide...and Andy has been accused of being involved which the Palace has loudly denied....and as you can imagine the press are having a field day... We have been going on for ages about the standard of entertainment on the television....well we were right....recent viewing figures show that almost 50% of the viewing public now st...

The floods in Yorkshire have had a lot of TV coverage...especially the dam in Whaley Bridge which has been damaged with the pressure of water in the Also the terrible mass shootings in the U.S.A. have been featured on the news.....I don't really know what the answer is to this as it is very easy to carry out one of these atrocities if you have that mentality.... There has been an item on the news regarding someone being awarded £10,000 pounds compensation because they were deeply offended by the...

We now have a new Prime Minister.....Mr.Boris Johnson....so out come the critics and protesters as they now have a target to help display their complete lack of brains and indeed knowledge..... We have had a week of very hot weather.....not as hot as other places in Europe...but this is BRITAIN.....so the bit of sunshine we have been waiting for for months has caused total chaos..... There is a new programme on Channel 4 called The Latish Show With Mo Gilligan who is quite a likeable chap and it...

Just in case you didn't know...the Yanks landed on the moon 50 years ago and it seems to have received more coverage now than it did back then....personally I can't really see the point in space travel....we need to get things sorted out on this planet before we spend billions to find there's nothing actually out there.....the radio telescope at Jodrell Bank has also been featured on the news which is not far from where I live and I must say it is a very interesting place to visit.....there have...

There has been a lot of coverage about drunkeness on airlines....especially Ryanair....there are gangs of partygoers getting on the plane and causing all sorts of trouble including throwing up leaving the other passengers somewhat distressed.....they have suggested breathalising passengers before they get on the plane....what a load of nonsense.....it's about MONEY as always as greed triumphs over common sense....we are talking about an airborne vehicle which is dangerous enough without morons p...

Glastonbury has had blanket coverage on television....and for once wellington boots were not required and everyone had a good time once they had recovered from the price of the tickets....Stormzy went down well for some strange reason...apparently the MUSIC festival is now the place to air your political views....this sort of rubbish should be performed in a cellar somewhere and leave the big venues to musicians....but this is only the opinion of a senior citizen who is thankful to have enjoyed ...

The march into the private function by the women envirommentalists has caused a lot of controversy...Philip Hammong was the guest speaker........the press have had a field day condemning the bloke who "grabbed one of the women by the neck and bundled her out".....which begs the question as to what if she had been carrying a gun or was even a suicide bomber....oh no...they were ladies with sashes explaining who they were....obviously they shouldn't have got past the security (if there was any) bu...
