Yes!

This is truly excellent news folks, gather round, hear the tidings and be very glad.
ITV (God bless ’em!) have decided not to televise the British Comedy Awards.
The only slightly disappointing factor is they haven’t made this decision because the BCAs are crap television.
Oh no.
They’ve arrived at this decision because there have been ‘alleged irregularities’ with the telephone voting.
But hey, I don’t care! This is still brilliant.
Now then, what we all need to happen next is for the BBC to arrive at the same logic – also regarding telephone voting irregularities, but this time with the Eurovision Song Contest.
Please?
Once they’ve arrived at this decision (and let’s face it friends, how else can the vagaries of Euro-voting be explained away except with the word ‘irregularities’) and the British, nay, European television viewer can look forward to a nice big Euro-sized hole in the agony that has been our TV schedules for far too long.
Brilliant!

B.
Would you be playing for Glamorgan or Essex? 😉
Ah, you see… 🙂
Being Welsh and having lived in Essex, I can mentally shift to either side and join an XI from any point in history.
There’s no disgrace being beated by the Essex of the early 80s. And no loss of face in being beaten by the Glamorgan of the late 60s.
Ummm, I read about them. In a history book. Or a very old copy of Wisden.
