    Re: BBC Breakfast TV

    The man arrested in connection with the murder of A-level student Jeshma Raithatha recently, was described by the Breakfast ITV news reader as "from a country called Latvia"!!

    :\

      HP sauce has clearly gone downmarket with its latest, highly annoying TV advert campaign. The punchline is something like "The Official Sauce of Great Britain" but judging by the average members of the public used, it is clearly aiming to be "The Official Sauce of Chavs and Other Assorted W@nkers".

        Daddies always was the better brown.

          Assuming that's not some sort of sly incest related double entendre, agreed, Daddies is far superior.

          Both made by the same company though in the usual piece of baffling food business interelationships. Originally part of the Lea & Perrins portfolio, this was purchased by HP Foods (the makers of HP, natch) who were themselves bought up by Hanson along with everything else going in the 1980s. Hanson then sold them on to Danone (who were originally the Evian water people and now do these bio-drink things). Danone has now sold its sauce portfolio onto, wait for it, Heinz!

          So, yes, HP, Daddies and Heinz brown sauce (obviously) are now all made by the same company. At the moment both HP and Daddies are still made in their original Worcester and Aston locations, but probably only a matter of time until they are chemically synthesised in China.



          Even more clearly, I need to get out more, but I do like my brown sauce. It was one of Threaded's better inventions.

            Lucifer, your knowledge of HP corporate history is both impressive and worrying.

            You're right; that advert is definitely for the Chavs. But as I've been saying for a long time; they run the country!

                Dundeegeorge, in order to completely ruin the country they need to run the country. I've posted many messages complaining about the working classes running this country since 1945. That's what happens when you elect a Labour government.

                  No we've done this one before

                  Working classes are not really a problem.
                  Non-working classes are the vermin who are ruining the country (with the assistance of their spiritual soulmates the s*c**l*sts).

                    What do you mean by 'non-working classes'? Do you mean the middle and upper classes, or do you mean underclass dole scum?

                      HP or Daddies

                      Well, for me it's got to be HP for Brown.
                      Heinz for Tomato.
