      Well spotted pussy!
      I caught 5 mins of it before I switched off and read a book instead.
      Life on the road is indeed dull.
      I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

        I too switched the TV on.. and there was the Toby Jug, reading his heavily scripted ad libs. All the charm of 1980s regional TV with less substance. Noel Edmonds couldn't devise a more cretinous and patronising show

        The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

        But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

          I remember him from some financial program, and I quite liked him in it, he seemed more edgy - but the One Show is just the visual equivalent of a lukewarm cup of tea and a stale custard cream - also it is a really naff name for a show

                  I seem to love everything they do - Sams Town has been on my CD player in the car for over 12 months, one of those albums I never tire of hearing.

                    if you change your mind and decide that you will have one of the tasty looking cakes for pudding, all you'll find left is a yoghurt.

                      Never heard of that one. You sure it's not a mistranslation? I have heard Brazilians refer to them as "Castanhas do Pará". Pará is a northern Brazilian state.
