Anyone catch tonight's gem of a program ?!

The speeding segment was excellent...
Stopped for doing 36 in a 30 zone. In fact the fastest the caught was a 37mph !! I'd loved of seen that end up in court - I would of thought that was pretty good considering that it was a fairly open stretch of road - speeding kills !!

THen they show some stupid bint trying to pass her driving test - I would gladly hand my license in, if she ever passed her license ! God save us all if she eveer passes her test .

ggrrrr

Anyone going to Brands on Sunday - No24 Roadsports A

Yeah what a suprise the green BBC do it again. Presumably all those children in the court were qualified drivers - not. Oh ffs I wish they had caught me

q why were you doing 36 MPH

a because I was going slowly in case anyone of you little people ran out in the road. You see this TV programme is run by a nasty green witch (they are the worst kind you know) they want to put your mummy and daddy in jail so you can't have any new clothes and you have to go and live in an orphanage.

q What would you say to my daddy if you ran me over?

a I would demand to know why he was such an irresponsible parent letting you out on a main road unsupervised at your age and then I would want to know how he was going to pay for the damage to my car ..... and on and on and on

cars are bad and drugs are good scrap the BBC

The BBC really are going for the maximum numpty ratings of late arnt they?

A few years ago ITV was seen as low brow veiwing, since phoney Tony got in, there's so much PC brain washing tat.

Thankfully this irritating piece of TV shite was interrupted by a screeeeeeeech of brakes. A quick peer out of the window reveals one of the local boy racers had just rear ended a Vauxhall Astra Convertible outside the house. We heard him say ‘My brakes are shit’ Doh funny how they managed to lock up then. Might have something to do with driving too fast on a wet road.

The BBC HAVE TOTALLY LOST THE PLOT!
Why do I have to pay for my license to watch this shyte? The BBC radio is just as bad with that lard arsed half wit Chris Moyles on radio 1. Radio 2 has old man Wogan and Jimmy Young FFS!! I thought they died when I was 8!
BBC TV is so pi55 poor it's laughable!
Channel 5 on the other hand seem to be getting much better, (or maybe the contrast between the BBC makes it seem better).

Hands off El TEL, he might be mainstream most of the time, but now and then he sticks the boot back into "aunty" big style. Mojo

And his Eurovision commentary is simply masterful. All the host nations hate him...

You guys have said it all: this program really is the definitive edge of control freakery. Whilst I would personally not rage against actually lowering speed limits in really dense urban areas including school environs, the preposterous bastardisation/criminalisation of those poor tax victims by that bone-head sensationalist dick weed reporter were truly way out of proportion. It's all part of this hypocritical obsession the liberal intelligentsia who run the Beeb seem to champion like religous zealots. I agree wholeheartedly with all your various sentiments and it's yet more evidence (if it were needed) of what's in store if Labour's conspiracy is left to carry on unchecked.
There's a sort of sanctimonious smarm behind all these broadcasts but in the interests of fairness you mustn't think it's just the main instrument of state propaganda that's at it - the fact is that the overwhelming majority of 'right on' journos believe in the 'anti-car' philosophies of the left: even seemingly genuinely objective newsreaders (like Kirsty something on CH5?*) can't resist pronouncements like 'everyone KNOWS we have to get people out of their cars...' Really? I recall reading an interesting thread within this hallowed site recently along the lines of 'The Car Has Won(?)' - spot on IMHO but can you see how the Transport 2000 sponsored spin becomes accepted wisdom everywhere - and THAT's our problem as PHers because the policy makers LISTEN.
* CH5 seems to run Newsnight-esque 'pro & anti' debates after certain stories which is fine but has anyone noticed the seemingly 'resident' pundit? I don't know who he is (anyone?) but he is seemingly most emphatically 'on-messgae.' I disagree with everything he says but he acts as a sort of confirmational springboard for 'spun stories' like the whole car/public transport debate. This seems highly biased against the anti-PC lobby - the odds against real debate and any semblance of fairness in the various arena are stacked frighteningly high in favour of the left.

He's also more than happy to put the boot into Johnny 3 jags. (not that I ever listen to radio 2 you understand)

On the subject of musical items and staying relevant to the thread, there was a 15 second blip of thought control by some anonymous nanny-type during last night's transmission that claimed something like 'people listening to loud fast music had more accidents whilst driving.'
Presuambly this means I'll have to remove all my Motorhead etc from the multichanger and replace it with something a little more 'agreeable;' Rick Astley, perhaps or maybe the divine angelism of wee Mr.Gates? Unchained Melody anyone?

Do you remember the good old days.
Days when Clarkson would tear around some rural beaty spot in one of Blackpool's best.

If all this bogwash is HRH Blair's fault, bring back Maggie. Nutter.

Surely there's a niche for a totally non-PC, numpty bashing magazine show for gobsh!tes.

It really irritated me. Woman caught doing 37 'don't you look at your speedo?' No, I bloody don't (well not all the time) I'm watching the road ahead keeping my eye out for possible hazards (like kids!). If I'm constantly looking at the speedo I'm more likely to miss (or rather hit) something outside. What if there had been zero visibility and snow, would I be sticking to the 30 speed limit, of course I wouldn't - it would be far too dangerous.

I wish they pulled one of the PH group over, but then again, they would not have broadcasted it.

Look, problem is both phoney toney and the mad cow were shite. Not a bleeding clue either of em. In fact when did we last have a decent politician. the reason is they will not leave well alone. What they actually need to do is as little as possible, but no, they have to interfere in every last thing until they have buggerred everything up not long to go now then

Agree with everything so far except for the poor girl trying to do her driving test. I mean, was that instructor not the worst ever ? Grabbing the stering wheel at every opportunity and constantly nagging at her - no wonder she was a gibbering wreck by the end of it. I'm surprised she didn't punch his lights out - patronising sexist sod.

Horrible program, although that Brummie git presenting it suits the program to a T - he's got the sort of whinging accent that complements this program totally.`Now, why didn't the BBC seize this opportunity and make a half decent programme ?
