Also he knew Susan d'oily Osmon. Which led to this magnificent post

I can't say I agree with his sartorial advice. He foolishly claims that three-buttoned suits should only be fastened in the middle, and that having your suit jacket unbuttoned whilst standing is some sort of sacrilegious act.

An etiquette expert he may be; a sartorial expert he is not.

EDIT: After looking at his pictures again, his kissing cuff buttons are vile, his diagonal-striped tie is awful, and his tie knot is too large.

He can't criticise David Cameron's suits and then dress himself in that way.

They look pretty much identical to each other!

Though he was born in 1989?! He looks at least 45. Years aren't kind...

Perhaps its all the good living.

He'd better be careful, or he'll end up with gout.

Meanwhile, in *whoosh* news, DaneilK spectacularly misses the point. Again.

Perhaps we should have a separate thread for comments re: the daybreak thread given its notoriety

His obsession with using company names grates on me. "GMTV Ltd." "ITV Breakfast Ltd." and so on, Daybreak and GMTV aren't so hard...

I'm amused by Phil94's disappointment that nobody seems to be interested in a random hour of Sky News last week having the "wrong" background. Even if he was in the UK, he would be watching far far too much of that channel. As for someone outside of the UK...

Everytime Tim Wilcox does a shift on the News Channel, the same people make the same posts, each time it's as if it's the first time it's ever been discussed.
