C4's Coverage would be improved with the removal of Come Fucking Dine With Me. Or at least, having Gyles Brandreth on it. Everyone loves Gyles. |

Agreed. Also the relatively new official RIM Blackberry Twitter application is incredibly good considering the ones I had tried. And the only reason I'm here posting on the forum is because I can't be fucked watching Come Dine With Me. |

I'm more surprised of the news that people were unable to vote in various places. |

Easy adjustment to the rules. Queues close at 10pm. Anybody who comes after that should really have planned their day better. |

You reminded me of the interview during BBC's coverage of the election of Ashcroft with Paxman interviewing and dodging every single question on him not paying tax. |

Sounds like more blind adherence to unnecessary rules, like 90% of the news items folks post here. In the US, folks running the polling places generally get a bit of leeway -- for ex., if there's a queue out-the-door-and-down-the-block, the Pollsters are permitted to stay open until everyone's had their shot. (Oregon doesn't have this problem -- *all* voting is by-mail....) |

Managed to avoid the results this morning until after lectures were over, so I could watch the downloaded C4 Alt. one just now. The show was alright, but some was horribly scripted. I've also got nothing against Brian Cox, but it was a fresh reminder why I avoid watching him: it's impossible for him not to smile at any given time, it just un-nerves me to see the constant simpering look he has. Especially when telling us in fantastic ways we'll all die. And now I've got to find a new version of YHBW to download since they cut it up unto little chunks. Bleh. Another bad thing about missing election night: having to wade through hours and hours of tweets that reference NOTHING to organise them all. Posted Image HunteRS, Twitter is not IRC XD |
