NOWWWWWWWWWw despatches channel 4 T***o stuff

Do you think The Good Life could be remade, with me or Dave playing Tom Good (maybe not!)? If you have seen something on TV or heard something on the radio recently that you want to talk about, tell us here.

I didn't find it depressing. It outlined stuff I knew already... and added more to the list.

If anything it made me even more determined NOT to buy anything T***o and to oppose any efforts by them to build anywhere in my area.

The lady in the experiment said she would vote with her feet, but that it might not be the right thing to do. I think it's exactly the right thing to do - it's the only message that they'll listen to.

Vote with your feet... Walk away from the supermarket and towards your local suppliers. They'll welcome you with open arms.

Hear, hear Shirlz. I missed the show did they mention Inverness where there are more concentrated areas of T***o's than any where else in the country?

Just had a thought we could change T***o on the word censor so that it say's "bastard T***o" or something similar everytime it is mentioned. Could be amusing?

I found the bit about influence on government particularly interesting........give the labour party a few million, involve government ministers..... :?
I did notice that a certain teapot company has an ex-government minister on the payroll.........now, I wonder...... :wink:
