Browsing Wikipedia, the thought occured to me that I should search for student radio personalities. So I popped in the name of arguably the most famous one, and guess what happened!

Looking at that picture... he wasn't at the Kilroy press conference in January where he quit UKIP was he? (It was held in Hinckley)

At the time shouting to see if there was anyone else who goes to TVF was there seemed like a silly idea.

Indeed, JM is seen as one of the pioneers in British radio.

Looks like the netizens of TVF and MP247 are really getting to work now by helping to provide a full description of our famous 'member'.

Strangely he disappeared as soon as I read his definition, but he seems to have come back now! I'm astounded that Rod isn't on there.

Unbelievably, this informative and neutral article is now an article for 'speedy deletion'.

What is wrong with this world?

And I thought TVF's moderating was bad!!

What I want to know is WHO from Metropol moaned about the thread... you can't find Metropol just from searching James Martin... or even a sophisticated query like ' "James + Martin" + cracking + source ' can you?

I don't know what's more amusing; the fact people are sad enough to sit there and write that or that people get a kick out of damaging somebody's credibility like this.
