So - not only is the seawater full of slurry and the chocolate full of salmonella, GMTV were nicking our money?

There's a Panorama on about it tonight (BBC1, 8.30)

I've never phoned one of these lines, it's just cos I'm from Portobello that I feel I must complain.

Ha ha ha ha ha!

People who phone into these things must be a tad stupid to start with, don't you think?

In fact, watching GMTV is a pretty desperate act in itself.

I have made up a joke :

Q: How do you tell the difference between Firth Of Forth seawater and Cadbury's chocolate?

A: You can't. Both consist of solid brown matter with bits of nut and salmonella.

Excellent!

I like your jokes. Please make up more.
Anything other than the crap (no pun intended) puns that so many of threads on here descend into these days.

Why mess with board tradition?

When your thread divebombs into pun alley it's just nature's way of telling you the topic has gone a bit stale, move along now, nothing to see here.

There's no point fighting the flow, Kanute-style. You may as well just bob along with the other pun poos.

Chris Moyles did a bril bit on the GMTV fraud this morning. He used an interview that I assume will appear in tonights panorama. A woman was annoyed because she had been "robbed" she went onto to explain that it was like "opening her window and throwing her money away". Which of course is nothing like getting robbed.

He then went on to play the phone-in quiz for tickets for the premiere to Spiderman, he helpfully provided the correct answer (C) for those who wished to phone in.

What happened to that woman who won Pop Idol?
