I've never watched "Strictly" (stupid name), will never watch it and have no interest in it or any of its participants. The fucking BBC persists in treating it as front page news items.

I give in, I have to ask. What's in those boxes they give the medallists? Chocolates? Joss sticks? A set of dominoes? -

I may have mentioned I went to both the Bruce Springsteen shows at Wembley. And caught Covid. -

Oh, I don't mind regional accents, it's the tone, poor enunciation, speaking too fast. High squealy voices in particular. I don't know who I'm talking about because most of them are voiceovers and we don't see the faces. But as an example, Denise Lewis is much kinder to my ears than Jessica Ennis. -
The Fucking 2024 Olympics
Toast replied to harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy's topic in DeathList extra-curricular
No, I don't. It's normal to highlight competitors from the home nation, especially when they have a reasonable chance of success. That's where most viewers' interest will be focused. I don't think the average person keeps up to date with world championships and other competitions, so are likely to know only a few foreign participants, mostly veterans of previous Olympics. This doesn't mean they don't enjoy watching anyone else, but it's the Brits and the famous names that get them watching. -

I can't stand her. There's just something about her that arouses my dislike. And she sounds like a cartoon duck when she speaks. Speaking of which, some of the commentators are excruciating to listen to. I realise they're brought in for their sporting experience and knowledge, but some of them could do with a course of elocution lessons beforehand. -

Yes, apart from being incredibly boring to watch, you have to wonder what those horses have been put through to achieve such a fucking pointless display. -

I didn't follow the Letby trial, and I have no opinion on whether she is guilty or not. But with so many charges presented by the prosecution over so many months I can't see how the jury could possibly have kept track of it. Aside from cross-examinations, the defence had to wait months for an opportunity to respond to any of the charges. How can that be fair? It would have been fairer if each charge had been treated separately, with prosecution and defence setting out their case for each, before moving on to the next. (I don't mean that the verdicts should have been given case by case, just the arguments.)

Good work.

Yes, I see, but they can let it down afterwards. See Rebecca wossname, the Brazilian lady who won silver today.
