1. B - of course
2. It's a bot that runs TVF. "Astonishingly Stupid Arse" spends it's time in between deleting all RTPs that are not from Luxton titting about with the design of minor pages so that they make even simple tasks difficult.
3. I'm sorry but it has to be C for me. I liked going on holiday and seeing different idents

4. A - of course. However the coffee mornings with B when we all rest our hot cups on formal blouses to protect her furniture are great fun.
5. Because you'll be strolling rite down electrik avenue where you shall be put to death for daring to request library music.
6. Because there aren't enough kids in china to make the number of combs that would be needed for the youth of britain.

Credit where credits due... this forum is scraping the barrel of good English so I think the lack of a punctuation mark is hardly an identifier!

It doesn't need a question mark, for heaven's sake. It's an instruction, not a question. The second sentence is part of the rubric of the exam paper.

The original in Bart Beelezebub's post does have a full stop. It's J.Megaphone's amended version which is lacking punctuation.

I was making a very weak joke about how punctuation is not an identifyer as to the tone of posts on Metropol... it is now an extremely weak joke as I've had to explain it!

1. Is Nick Harvey...
e) All of the above
2. Who or what is Asa? Explain in no more than 100 words.
Soderator of TV Forum. Famously banned Jamez in 2003, because he told it like it is regarding Chris Rogers' drug probs.
3. Who is the devil incarnate?
a) Lorraine Heggessey
4. Which of the following presenters is the fabbest?
None. Jim Bowen reigns supreme.
5. Why must you not ask for clean ITV News music?
I'll get my ass sued?
6. Explain why BBC World isn't coming to Freeview any time soon.
Because it's not tailored for British eyes! That's why the UK has News 24. BBC World is reserved for those *special* times. Like when someone drives a royal family member into a tunnel.
