    Very funny indeed!

    That should be a weekly series on B-BBC?

    Wonderful, and unlike the real generics, funny.

    Listening to last Friday’s News Quiz was absolute torture, with making fun of the Daily Mail kicking off the episode, with a “we hate tories” prolonged vignette, and the show rising to new heights with an “Israelis kill anyone” quip. Truly awful.

    What happened to Israel-hating with the generics? No doubt that will require a complete episode in its own right. Other possibilities include generic Today presenter, generic Americana presenter, generic World Have Your Say host, generic Obama worshipper etc.

    DB,
    Ages ago, when you did the first generic comedian, I went to that website and created a Carol Ann Duffy, the first lesbian’n gay poet laureate. I spent ages on it and wrote a lovely poem for the dialogue. Then when I tried to upload the final edit, it came up ERROR. So I gave up.

    I like the female’s baritone. Or is he a cross dresser?

    Got this from Guido’s site. If you haven’t seen it then check it out, they do a reconstruction of the one eyed mong losing it. We should get the BBC to show it, then again they only show stuff that rips the piss out of George Bush or Sarah Palin.

      Martin,
      Great link.  And well done to Hong Kong for reporting it. Over the years, I have noticed that news reporting in many countries , including very poor ones, is far superior to the BBC’s narrow, superficial, biased output.
      When compared with many broadcasters round the world, the BBC is distinctly third-rate.

    The Tories were getting hammered on Radio 5 again, this time over the bloated jobs in the public sector. Apparently some 2000 jobs ‘might’ go in the public sector (compare that to the hundreds of thousands gone in the private sector, just how many people did Woolworths employ again?) and it’s the fault of the Tories.

    All of a sudden the BBC can find a union boss to spout bollocks, funny they couldn’t find one yesterday to comment on the bullying from the one eyed mong and that fat turd Prescott.

    Union scum was moaning that the Tories are in charge, well that’s democracy for you.

    Oh and since when does Cheryl Cole come higher up the news agenda (she’s top story on Radio 5) than the IRA (and it is the IRA) back to bombing again.
