Tonight. Channel 4 7.00 pm.

Could be interesting.

Or it could be a waste of valuable time.

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Even this program is coming out with the one third bullshit - and attributing it to the TRRL...

When it's the TRRL's research that says 6% innit?

I think I might have to switch this off, before I need a new TV...

Cheers, Phil

Your have nothing to fear from speed traps unless you are driving too fast, in which case you deserve all you get.

I have never received a speeding ticket and do not have a problem with speed traps, although I did prefer the cameras when they were grey and less visible. They seem to be a bit of an eyesore now, I have written to my MP suggesting they return to the the original colours.

Yours,
M Brown

Yep - stuck with it...

I am stunned!

Guess this bloke won't work in TV again, not pulling the party line...

Cheers, Phil

Repeated Tuesday am at about 4 o clock or something I think. Worth watching. Some interesting stuff. Some annoying stuff too though. Set your video and see what you think.

Am I alone in feeling that spoof answers like this are getting a bit boring?

Boring yes, and perhaps dangerous too. Someone might actually take them seriously. Enough is enough!

No, you're not alone, but some people who do not have the conviction to stand by what they think and prompt debate will doubtless resort to this behaviour.

CarZee and Mel strike me as people who would call a spade a spade.

It's PH Knock Down Ginger to me. Amusing the first couple of times, then tedious to the extreme.

So, to whomever it is: STAND BY YOUR BELIEFS, YOU COWARDLY BA$TARD !!!!!

I'd happily call most things a spade

I think you're all getting a bit wound up by someone (JSG is my prime suspect) extracting the urea - chill out & just give him short shrift if he appears again, but crying out loud don't get your keks in a knot about it..

Anyway, I think he got the message yesterday evening.

Was wondering if this programme was anything to do with the journalist chap who was on here a few months back looking to speak to people who had 'modified' any speed cameras. He got sent away with a flea in his ear I seem to remember.

Whooooooops did I just type that, it means I'll be accused of being racist twice in as many weeks

Oh yes and for the record MBrown has got FA to do with me it's too dull for my style and I can get much more of a reaction to some of my genuine opinions to feel the desire to go trolling.
