Doesn't make you get a letter though.Even if you do get a letter when over 70 it doesn't always tell you to isolate.An old schoolfriend of mine was shocked the other day when his 94 year old granny with one lung and heart disease got a letter saying she was "Low to medium risk". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,689 Posted May 18, 2021 Good to see that Richard is bringing his Alan Partridge tribute act to the GMB sofa for June, and is favourite for the full-time Piers gig. Too bad I'll never watch it, but I'll keep an eye out for the gaffe headlines. Here's a few of the great man's (Madeley) previous gems: [To John Lydon] “If we could throw a fishing rod into the corridors of time and reel you in, you’d throttle you, wouldn’t you?” [To Bill Clinton] “I know what it’s like to be wronged by the press. I was once accused of shoplifting. Unlike you though, I knew I was innocent.” [While interviewing Keira Knightly] “Can we get some make up please? Get Keira looking like a crack whore… she’d make a good crack whore!” [After a guest struggled with their stammer] “You looked as if your head was going to come off!” [To Faye from Steps and Russell Watson] “I always thought both of your music was a bit crap but this is quite good.” [To a man crying after meeting paramedics who saved his life] “Stop crying! This is supposed to make you happy! Anyway after the break, the biggest dog in the UK. And he really is big. Don’t miss it!” [In his documentary, ‘Madeley Meets the Squatters’] “I have to confess, as someone who is lucky enough to own more than one home, I know nothing about squatting.” “Remember that soup I made last week? Absolutely horrible. Had to throw it in the garden!” “I’ve never met a single woman who’s happy with the way she looks. Except Jordan. Although I’ve never met her.” “He suffers for us. He bears our pain in the most public way possible. He serves a timeless human need, one that goes back long before the time of Christ. Perhaps this has always been Paul Gascoigne’s destiny.” “You look at the beach and you think, ‘ahh, pretty pretty, lovely golden sand, that’s safe.’ Not in certain parts of the country… quicksand!” “There’s not many better things than seeing an older woman skipping.” “Can we put out that interview I did with Patrick Duffy at Glasgow Airport? It’s a tremendous two minutes.” “What do you notice most that has changed during your 18 years in jail? Cars have five gears now, for example.” “So are you telling me elephants are not born evil?!” “I hope when I’m reincarnated I come back black because you age better.” “When me and Judy were trying to conceive, I used to douse my balls in icy water before intercourse.” 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 16,140 Posted May 18, 2021 [OMG that last one ] I used to have their programme on in the mornings pre-internet. I would be doing other things at the time, so I don't claim to have watched it with attention, but I don't remember him being as entertaining as that.

According to social media his ambulance took a few minutes rather than the Welsh average of 4 hours! What a pointless programme, pointless activity & pointless 'personality'.

Though for deadpooling purposes, we should encourage ITV to round up a bunch of notable octogenarians and make them swim in fish guts. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
