Nope.
And quite how the BBC thinks it's OK to up our licensee fees, drop footy, cricket etc etc and screen crap like that, plus only upper class sports like the "**** of the year show jumping", is beyond me.

Wasn't as good as last year. Got quite annoyed with the ar$eholes who were chiming their airhorns at all the wrong times in the music (as a Musician, this really gets on my t1ts)

Drop football you say? it seems to be on all the time during the season and an awful lot of us think its ****e anyway. As for cricket, it was dropped because no-one was watching as can be seen from the empty stands when a match is actually shown and its not the most exciting of sports after all is it.

As for horsey stuff its not me cup of tea either but try telling the 250,000 that go to badminton every year that its upper class.

I thought it was a load of crap. Same as every year but I still watched it for 5 minutes and it was still the same old crap as usual. Proud of what exactly?

Yes demanding plus etc etc. Did they not demand devolution for years and years, therefore they were demanding it? Of course they have had a certain amount of devolution for several years, bring on full separation I say.

One of the only really British affairs left. Did you notice that 99.999 % of the audiences were white? Brilliant!

Shame they don't have the fat lady singing "Rule Britannia".

And why was the conductor dressed like a chef

Yes I did notice that. Thought I'd better not mention it though or the race police on here would be onto me.

I enjoyed LNOTP, used it to drown out the 'special' kid next door crying because the other kids had found out he goes to 'special school'

this means we only have to listen to his tantrums at weekends and holidays
