In February 1963 Ridley Scott was named in the title credits as “Designer” for a BBC television Tonight programme about the severe winter of 1963. He went on to famously direct science fiction ‘horror’ films Alien and Blade Runner and recently Prometheus. The BBC likewise, it might be said, has taken a similar path, producing climate ‘horror’ films based more on science fiction than fact. The BBC don’t … Continue reading →

Clearly the BBC has fallen out with the ‘ever ready with an anti Iraq War quote’ Craig Murray whom they used to wheel in to the studios to give a reasoned and fair portrayal of the war….or not. Here is his views on the BBC’s ‘impartial’ coverage of the recent events in Israel and Gaza (my censorship of Craig’s Anglo Saxon vocabulary)…..

      You may think that reports of vigilante gangs roaming the streets of London forcing people to comply with a particular religion’s tenets would be big news. Not for the BBC. Muslim gangs attempting to turn their area of London into Muslim only enclaves where British law is held in contempt and attacks on non-Muslims making them comply with Sharia law as they do so might catch a … Continue reading →

Is it just me or is the BBC rather outraged that the Algerian  Government has taken a no-nonsense approach to dealing with Islamic terrorists? I have been following the coverage these past few days and apart from floating the views of those .. ahem.. wise old coves at the F.O. the BBC main meme is to warn of the dangers presented by a robust approach to Jihadi.

I wonder what is the chronic drug and alcohol  abuser Will Self that has so moved the BBC to line him up as Radio 4’s writer in residence? Thoughts?

    Dr Phil Jones, July 5, 2005: “The scientific community would come down on me in no uncertain terms if I said the world had cooled from 1998.
