Childrens presenter with a missing arm
Disabled CBeebies TV Presenter Cerrie Burnell Accused Of 'Scaring' Children After Complaints | UK News | Sky News
Quite incredible. The presenters changed from the 'normal' regular presenters to new ones and one happened to have an arm that ended just below the elbow. So what! Our two watch CBeebies avidly and instead of waiting for our 4 year old to ask or comment we decided to explain to him the 1st day she was on and he doesn't find her scary and nor does our 1 year old. They both watch the same as if it were the previous two presenters still. What sort of parents make complaints about a kids presenter with a disability ffs and have to stop their kids from watching. Have these people never explained things to their kids? Are these the same parents who let their kids stare at people with disabilities in the street? These people obviously lack any ability to communicate with and educate their children :rolleyes: |
Yeah was watching cbeebies a couple of days ago with my nippers and noticed her arm , notice how it still moves below the elbow .
id still bang her , but bloody hell it would only be a one handed w*nk |
typical bbc and yes that would scare kids. where are all the role models these days, the connie hucks, the gay guy outta byker to name a few.
|
My lad did notice so I explained and he's been fine about it. Trouble is, both the new presenters are cr*p. Bring back Chris and Pui is what I say!

|
If a kid mentions it then I think its an ideal time to explain to the kid why she looks like that. Open a dialogue about disability.
Let them know its only a bad arm, not a bad person. |
My missus was making a comment on this yesterday - I don't think she's worried about the missing arm, more that fact that the presenter is actually crap but that she's got the job because of the BBC's disability quotas (kind of positive discrimination).
It's certainly not frightened our son. |
its armless surely?
|
If you have difficulty telling your children then simply go and get Glen Hoddle to tell them why she is like that
|
Just goes to show that NOBODY should take account of whats said in an on-line forum !
|
Think she deserves a big hand... etc etc.
Actually my Grandfather had to have both hisd legs amputated above the knee (complications with diabetes) and got asked by a wee kid in the supermarket what had happened to his legs. His mother started to drag him away telling him not to look so he called them back and told her never to stop the child asking questions, otherwise how would they ever learn? 5t. |
My lad spotted this, we explained she was born like that and not everyone was the same etc. which he accepted.
I did have a chuckle at her CBeebies biog though on the site. She says her favourite game is Twister :lol1: |
Jesus, can the population not accept people with disabilities exist ?
Kids need to learn about things, they ask questions and are generally more accepting than some adults, or do we want the kids to turn into those gormless idiots that see someone with a disability and gawp, point or feel the need to make a stupid comment, she shoudlnt have got the job if she was crap but conversely her disability should not preclude her from a career in television, being a overly chirpy prattling **** isnt a disability for most of them so a missing limb isnt an issue. |
Just lol....
|
I thought they were going to vote weather or not to keep her ,but then again a show of hands would have been a bit distasteful

If I don't have and answer, I say I don't know, but that's a very good question! :thumb: |
All in all, it is the result of New Labour equal opportunities.
Exhibit 1: Balamory Shocking stuff. Let's put on one side the lesbians who run the shop, and the gay policeman and inventor in his pink castle. What are we left with ? * Edie McCready, a menopausal school minibus driver who is clearly running rich on a blend of HRT and Prozac * A painter who clearly doesn't give a **** about anything (c.f Dylan off the Magic Roundabout). Probably grows high-powered skunk under lights in his loft * Miss Hooly and Josie Jump, who are clearly gagging in the absence of eligible males on the island. Miss Hooly took to trying to "convert" the local gay copper, while Josie Jump is an anorexic who has thrown herself into a frenetic physical exercise regime to compensate for inactivity elsewhere. Exhibit 2: Fireman Sam (Old Version) Where do you start ? * The biggest employer in Pontypandy is the local fire station, which is in constant demand. Insurance premiums round there must be huge. Why has there never been an investigation ? Why all those firemen, yet no police or detectives ? * Two small homealone kids living without any visible means of support, except for occasional interventions from "Uncle Sam". Where the **** is social services ? * Blatant gender discrimination at the firestation, as Elvis (who is definitely special needs and a liability) goes on all the shouts, while Penny Morris invariably gets left to look after the shop. Potential racial discrimination there as well, as Station Officer Steele obviously isn't too fond of his team member of caribbean extraction. * Norman, the kid from the shop, is in desperate need of Ritalin. Where are social services ? And why is he never at school ? No wonder he's always starting fires... |
:lol:
Would ya do Miss Hooly? :luvlove: |
Christ: Is this what Sky News passes off as "news" :rolleyes: :lol1:
