love a bit of silent witness
Television programmers can safely slot in lots of noncontroversial things about bread and circuses.
Silenced by the sinister government overlords!!
Or maybe they’re just carefully considering their broadcasting obligations to be somewhat impartial weeks before a surprise election.
You’re right but it’s not a great indictment of anybody that you have to pull a programme on the homelessness crisis in the name of ‘impartiality’.
Is it impartial to deliberately pull something because it might be harmful to the current establishment? It’s not as though it’s a hatchet piece made with the sole purpose of attacking the government, it’s Prime Time. It’s a current affairs program and the current affair is lots of homeless people and no solutions.
I’m too tired these days to stay up until 9.30 anyway, but did anyone see the thing about Welsh cows? Fascinating stuff.
…and the Showbands programme was a repeat.
There was a tiny political reference where Twink mentioned Albert Reynolds’ days in the ballroom business.
(Twink getting more a like a deranged Barbara Cartland every day).
Is Donie Cassidy running?
Jaysus, wouldn’t that be the day.
The rugs don’t work.
Wait’ll ye hear this
