Default OMG, I've just wasted 30 mins of my life on the bbc

Decided to have a look at the spring watch website and the a message board.

That board really is the depths of Eco nutter / pc claptrap.

I gave up after reading 2 threads. 1 about somone objecting to farmers shooting "beautifull" wood pigeons.

And wait for it, this is a corker.......

A thread objecting to 1 of the presenters Tshirts!!!

Oh dear god, have people nothing better to do????

Would that be the one with the picture of the panda holding a couple of hand-guns?

To be honest, I'm surprised none of the crew got him to change it. Not the most appropriate choice on a nature programme

I thought that too, but Chris Packham is a secret crush of mine... Well, not so secret now. If he could just say his "r"s, then he'd be perfect

The BBC is the route of all thats wrong in this country, They make stories up to suit them. As a news service its second rate at best, As a web presence its about 3 years behind everything else and if it wasnt for Family guy and Top gear I would be protesting about my license fee outside their head office.

Rant over.

Tim, wasn't the bbc in this instance but people using their web board (the bbc are the admin / hosts).

Think I'll just stick to watching the programme and stay well away from the site, its safer for my blood pressure.
