    Which part of "Ceefax last night" didn't you understand? There was no mention on the page of anyone getting anything else - under the headline of "Madrid bombers sentenced to thousands of years", the only thing they mentioned was that three of them were sentenced to huge sentences.

    Final part of the page says that the spokesman says they got off lightly.

    I can only be responsible for reading the news as presented to me - an excuse used by thousands of Daily Heil / Express readers.

    When I read the title for this thread, I thought maybe Hector had gotten you for Tax Evasion and you'd be spending a few cold winter nights shacked up with a cellmate called bubba who would conveniently drop the soap in the shower and say 'Hey superstar, pick up the Soap!!!!'

    Maybe they are planning on inventing/leasing from Zeitghost some sort of eternal excruciation device, the kind only dreamed of by the Spanish Inquisition?

    An ASBO would have done to be honest.

    Personally I feel that sentencing anybody for longer than 20,000 years is getting a bit silly.

    Yeah, the maximum time anyone can be in jail for in Spain is 40 years
