lost was rubbish as is all of the crap that comes across the atlantic

No!! I won't have that! The Simpsons alone saves the septics' reputation..............and ALF too.
Have even seen the odd decent episode of "Scrubs" too.
They do have their share of keech too mind you, but that is hardly exclusive to them.
What about our collection of banal soaps? Mind-numbingly dull.

father ted was wink

Aye.

It was probably funny if you knew the context, ie for catholics maybe. Or maybe not.

sorry what was the question again....?

[Sysman]

Was never a Father Ted fan.... (cos its not funny)

You must be f******* kidding, it was one of the all time greats, up with Soutpark and BlackAdder.

I missed Southpark too.

This might have been something to do with living in another country when they were on. The first I heard of Father Ted was when someone gave me the book for Christmas. Unsurprisingly I didn't enjoy the book.

He's been using his multiple sockies all this time - he turns up from time to time just to check out whether people missed him or not

That was a rental car for a few weeks during the worst of the snow.

[Clippy]

Which car?

About £400 for the M Roadster and about £200 for the people carrier roughly.

There is of course a reason for that. And that is the policy of vetting newbie posters. It's slow and intrusive and stinks of double standards.

I have to say - this is complete and utter bollox policy!

Well BlackAdder - I agree.
Never bothered with Southpark..... so can't comment
Saw Father Ted - Thought it was Tulipe....
Tried to watch another one (to give it a chance and as everyone else was raving about it)... and it was Tulipe.....

Sorry!

People do not walk into general first off and see that there is a good laugh to be had and then join.

Hardly any users join these days, there is no fresh meat to abuse.

There is of course a reason for that. And that is the policy of vetting newbie posters. It's slow and intrusive and stinks of double standards.

For example a newbie puts in an accounting question. He is met by someone like Northernladuk who retorts what a stupid question but here is an answer like or lump it.

Newbie sits at PC and answers. Reply sits there waiting to be moderated so newbie toddles off. They return to find it's still not posted. A day passes and they realise they have a reply from a moderator telling them that FOAD is not a reasonable answer to the last poster.

They **** off to Mumsnet
