Right ****ing dodgy lot on here, no one pays for **** all. <laugh>

Anyway BBC don't care about any of you, people remember when they shut done BBC606 and didn't give a **** about millions of signed up football fans. Then Mick out the goodness of his heart came and rescued us all.
 
Used to love us getting the Xmas version (TV Times too) when I was a kid - only way to plot the Xmas films back then ... games gone ...

I used to love that at Christmas

Raiders of the Lost ark - check
Star Wars - check
Gremlins - check
Back to the future - check
Close encounters of the 3rd kind - check
Ghostbusters - check

although I realise when you were a kid it was probably Doris Day and Rock Hudson on the moving pictures box <whistle>

They really ****ing did.

I don’t remember how many subscribers it had, but I’d imagine it was in the hundreds of thousands. Don’t know how much it cost to pay a handful of people to manage that but it was a kick in the nuts when they scrapped it

There were a few other sites that popped up after BBC606. I remember one called ‘the real 606’ that copied the BBC format. I laid my hat here early doors and stuck with this one. Remember chatting to Mick quite a bit who said they’d set this one up a couple of years before, mainly for Scottish footie but when BBC shut down he thought they might as well expand it and gather some of the users from there.

In other Trump news relating to 'that' election

US President Donald Trump has pardoned his former personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani and dozens of other allies who stood accused of trying to overturn the result of the 2020 election.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1m321r73g4o

And this is the problem now. For all of the misdemeanours that Trump enacted during that election, claiming it was fraudulently stolen from him. And all of those who supported him to try and get it overturned.

Trump can now say, the BBC lied about it, they are fake news, they can't be trusted.

The idiot editor who produced that Panorama programme has just handed that to him on a plate
 
Robert Jenrick is in trouble for creating this... <laugh>

Trump threatens to sue BBC for $1bn if it does not respond within days over speech edit error

Donald Trump has threatened to sue the BBC for $1bn.

Our US partner NBC News has obtained the letter sent from the US president's lawyers to the BBC.

Trump has set the BBC a deadline of 5pm EST (10pm in the UK) on Friday 14 November to "comply".
If not, the letter from Trump's legal team says:
"President Trump will be left with no alternative but to enforce his legal and equitable rights, all of which are expressly reserved and are not waived, including by filing legal action for no less than $1,000,000,000 (One Billion Dollars) in damages. The BBC is on notice."​
Trump's lawyers are demanding a retraction.

A spokesperson for Trump's legal team tells NBC: "The BBC defamed President Trump by intentionally and deceitfully editing its documentary in order to try and interfere in the Presidential Election. President Trump will continue to hold accountable those who traffic in lies, deception, and fake news."

A BBC spokesperson tells NBC News: "We will review the letter and respond directly in due course."

The White House referred a request for comment to the outside legal team.

They finally got rid of Lineker. so most of that will be available

Judge rules that Essex (Bell) Hotel can still house asylum seekers, against the council wishes.

I honestly don't get it, why antagonise local people, let alone the cost in policing and security for them to be there. We are supposed to be moving asylum seekers out of hotels, so why not make them the first and remove the problem, let alone the cost of constant court challenges, it's bonkers.

Judges are contrained by this inconvenient concept called the law. They can't just make **** up, unlike the media and the flag shaggers on twatter, so regardless of what local and national politicians want them to say, they're actually going to repeat what the law says.

Where did anyone make up ****?

My point which I clearly stated was why antagonise people when Labour have constantly promised to move asylum seekers out of hotels, point being put those at the Bell Hotel on the priority list to be moved - because the costs will otherwise spiral even more if they don't due to the requirement of police, security guards and more people clogging up the court system. This isn't difficult mate, afterall Labour have sat in the shadows for 14 years seemingly with no plan and no ideas.

While you are here, I noted unemployment has gone up again today and this will all be because of Rachel Reeves policies at the the last budget, instead of creating jobs we are losing them through total incompetence by the party now in power. ****ing dreading what they are going to do at the end of the month in the next budget with hospitality on it's ****ing knees. I hear she's going for private pensions? that should be fun. I know she's promised not to go for bankers, ****ing hell.

And regardless of the flag shaggers and the media as Archers likes to band about, let's not forget what migrant inflamed the problem at the Bell Hotel:

None of this from there was made up ****...

Hadush Kebatu is an Ethiopian national and asylum seeker who was convicted of sexual assault in the UK in September 2025.

He is primarily known due to a high-profile incident in October 2025 where he was mistakenly released from prison instead of being transferred for deportation, triggering a three-day police manhunt.
