Marian Margoyle does appear twice in Blackadder but not in that role. 6 minutes ago, Sergeant Wilson said: You've had a 'made here Fullers. This is tantamount to getting Partridge wrong in PnB terms. I suggestions time out watching repeats of classic comedy. We'll talk again later. Eta, it's Miriam not Marion. Get on Gold until Saturday. Also it's Margolyes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bendan Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 2 hours ago, Snafu said: Sweden looks like its taking part in some horrific experiment. Who is running this, not the governments?? Has anyone on here played the Fallout games? This reminds me of the bomb vault experiments where every vault had a different experiment ran by scientists paid for by the vault makers, the military and the multinational corporations and usually ended in the total annihilation of the inhabitants. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/30/catastrophe-sweden-coronavirus-stoicism-lockdown-europe I think they've handled it pretty well. Panic and hysteria don't help anyone. They will tighten things when the public health authority says they need to. It helps that most Swedish adults are intelligent enough to self police. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shit would only get serious if the vodka ran out. Why do so many of them top themselves then? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forest_Fifer Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 [mention=77096]Jeremiah_Cole[/mention] mentioned last night about criminal trials without jury Justice secretary amendment to remove trials without juries from bill Mr Yousaf says the government is working in a spirit of compromise and consensus and adds "we understand how vital the principle of trial by jury is". The justice secretary says the proposal to have trials without juries is proportionate, but does not have the support of this chamber and he is aware of the concerns of the profession. "Accordingly I intend to move an amendment at Stage 2 which will remove that section of the bill." Don't tell me he got something 100% wrong? That's not like him at all... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forest_Fifer Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Over here some supermarkets are forcing people to use a trolley when going into their store. Despite all the manky b*****ds touching it with their hands and all staff not wearing protective gloves. Fucking stupid, stupid stuff. Went to ASDA yesterday, they have cleaning stations with sanitiser and paper towels by the trolleys so you can clean them when you get one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Don't know why they bother listing the confirmed cases, it's all but meaningless given the different testing protocols and availability, but the deaths v recovery stats are pretty startling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 NHS staff 'gagged' over coronavirus shortages At this point, UNISON should be speaking out pretty robustly. Maybe they are, but they arent getting the message mainstream which is disappointing to see IMO. Their full time officials should be firing the bullets at this point 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forest_Fifer Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I live near Farmfoods. The other 2 can go f**k themselves. Last week I heard a radio ad to "test drive the new Corsa this weekend"It's amazing how many ads there still were on the TV even last week for holidays, etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UK recovery stats can't be right, are they not signing people off properly when they get discharged? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was just going to say this. These adverts will have been scheduled weeks, if not months, in advance. TV companies have two choices - go with what's scheduled, or make up some new material to fill the gaps. What's easier? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
