Off Topic The Goodhand Arms

BT have introduced new sports channels, so you are probably right, but I don't like regular payments because it can be hell to get out of. Even death doesn't release you from some contracts as they will only speak to the customer

 

I may be wrong but I think Prem football will still be free to BT broadband customers, you only have to pay for the european games. And some of them (euro games) will be free also.

 

Apparently you can have BT Sport 1 free, but they aren't saying what will be on the free channel....could be ping pong.

 

All 38 EPL live games will be shown on BT sport 1 free to existing customers.

I'm so jealous! I met Chilco this week and he's Mr chilled & retired!

 

Thanks....wasn't clear from the e-mail I received.

 

The one upshot of living at this end of the planet is that Foxtel show every single PL match live. As well as almost all CL games after and a bunch of Spanish League.

No Europa though

Its nice of Clarkson and May to give us all a regular reminder of the fact that they're ****wits.

 

Meh....I don't think it's that bad. Quite quick and clever in reality. The audience weren't "laughing nervously" either, as the Mail asserts, they were laughing.

 

Still marks them out for what they are though. Middle aged men doing teenage giggle humour that isn't funny.

 

Sure, but you pays your money etc etc. They're giving people what they expect from a Top Gear show.

 

Of course.

 

Must remember the audience picks itself. You get the audience that will find you funny.

 

Absolutely. I just think in this case people are desperately looking for something to be offended by. We're not looking at something too bad here (I don't think). Just the Daily Mail trying to stir.

 

Let's not forget that some people will be offended. Not me, I don't give a toss. I just find those three, as a group, generally, very iffy indeed and it would be a good idea if they disbanded. Individually, they are OK. Even Jeremy Clarkson is bearable. Just.

 

They're comedians though in essence, and comedians can offend. Some people will find them funny, some won't. I just find it a bit distasteful that bottom-dwelling publications like the Mail trail around trying to dig up something offensive to shock people with.

 

It's all a matter of taste, so not knocking those who find it funny, but aren't they a little old for this. I'm sure that being indulged for being outrageous has prevented Clarkson from maturing into a normal adult. He may have been as funny (as he appears to be witty), but would have lost the idiotness (not a word, but describes him).

 

Murray NOT in same half of draw as Djokovic.

 

There's a surprise.

 

Yeah! They're just trying to nick my gig
