    Balderdash, piffle & Crumpet!

    Very interesting and entertaining programme, made all the more so by being
    hosted by a really gorgeous bit of totty named Victoria Coren. In last
    nights edition they also had Bethany Hughes walking across the bell end of
    the Cerne Abbot giant- she was quite exited about it!

    Well yes, but on the down side, a large bit of the program was hosted by a fat macum, so hardly paradise on any scale.

    Ummm, I can sense a wha coming on here. You mean you don't know what a) fat is? b) a mucum is?

    Even worse, in this case he was a loudmouthed macum DJ, which didn't help at all.

    Still a very interesting program. I'm looking forward to the next one. Word research seems like it could be a great, if all-consuming, hobby.
    Patriotism is proud of a country's virtues and eager to correct its deficiencies; it also acknowledges the legitimate patriotism of other countries, with their own specific virtues. The pride of nationalism, however, trumpets its country's virtues and denies its deficiencies, while it is contemptuous toward the virtues of other countries. It wants to be, and proclaims itself to be, "the greatest," but greatness is not required of a country; only goodness is. (Sydney J. Harris)

    At no point did I say that the program wasn't interesting and worth watching. I was only pointing out that enticing unsuspecting squaddies to watch it on the grounds that it's full of hot babes, is likely to leave them somewhat disapointed and with a feeling that they have been cheated.

    A Geordie would not take kindly being called a Makem.

    Geordie=Newcastle
    Makem=Sunderland

    Intense local rivals.

    I may be wrong in my spelling of the word makum/macum, but I think you'll find that you are either a makum OR a geordie as one is from Sunderland and the other Newcastle, you can't really be both.
