    Privitising C4 cannot be compared with BGas or the Leccy .
    Who cares if " some wannabes get their kit off and have sex factor on ice" is no longer on air ?
    However Fatcher privitising the utilities is having an effect on the poor as we speak.
    Stop fighting for bollox . The fight was lost in the 80s

    The problem is that's all that will be on air. Dispatches, C4 News etc will be the first casualties and all that will left is back-to-back episodes of the stuff you don't care about but millions of people lap up.

    Maybe you’d like to think that one over and row back on it.

    Dunno C4's news & serious docos (not "300kg Hookers Try Welding On a Tropical Island") get quite small audiences but they're virtually all ABC1's so they're an advertiser's load-stone.

    No more than the post that it "fixed".:)

    Much as I disagree with her, I think she is an attractive young woman. Sorry if the implication was a bit too main forum for you. When was the last time you pulled up a poster for expressing a preference?

    I don’t think it’s ok and I like Ash. But in the parlance of the day people were simply saying they dislike her and they are free to do so.

    You on the other hand added a deeply sexist note and changed the **** reference from personality to bodily part.

    You can admit that was wrong or double down. Your choice.

    State of this thread.

    I've deleted all posts that are deemed as insulting to other users or contains grains of argument baiting.

    Surely you didn't have to take down the (genuine) extracts from Mad Nad's novels?!
