I think I'd rather have kids TV posts than endless Oneness griping.

They said it was "irresponsible" for BBC One to keep showing the current idents, and should take the time to make new idents and something more appropriate for the current situation. They do that and.... still moaning.

Some people won't be happy until the director general publicly apologises for the mistakes over the years and reinstates the balloon idents.

Do we think we owe BM11 a slight apology for attacking his prediction earlier in the year?

"The Netherlands have no confirmed cases"

Now they're one of the worst hit countries in Europe. What a difference two months makes...

It genuinely is. The Eurovision coronavirus prediction was the last one made before he was banned. So he called wolf so many times we thought nothing of that prediction and got him banned.

TBH, by now he'd have been predicting anarchists taking over various countries after government's fell, and that the BBC will have to be shut down because of it's open support for the NHS.

It wasn't that he was making predictions, it was that every single post involved some calamity.

^ Yep, exactly, which is why I'm ultimately glad he's gone

I have to admit, I’m almost impressed at the usual suspects trying to derail the Election 2010 thread with posts about US elections, and the NBC / Sky thread with completely unrelated Spanish-language news channel videos.

Hey guys if anyone is interested in how badly my local station WTAF butchers BBC World News, have a look at these 57 YouTube videos I've linked below. Like all the O&O stations they recently had an amazing new set installed featuring all the latest fake brick wall and blue perspex. Check it out!
