Florentine_Pogen Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Sky has edited the UK broadcast of the latest episode of the satirical news show Last Week Tonight with John Oliver to remove jokes about the Queen’s death. Two segments were dropped from the British version of the HBO satire show, which aired on Sunday night in the US. In one of the segments, Oliver says the UK “is clearly still reeling from the shocking death of a 96-year-old woman from natural causes”. In another comment, Oliver said the “nicest thing the Queen of England ever did for anyone was die the week” Liz Truss became prime minister “because for at least a week, she’s not going to be getting justifiably destroyed” for ruling out a windfall tax on oil and gas companies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 The CentreParcs stuff is mental. They are basically throwing people out of their chalets for 24 hours - you have to go and stay somewhere else and then come back afterwards. It's not like they are just shutting down the restaruant or bar or swimming pool, turfing people out completely! I am working on the bank holiday but we get an extra day in our leave allocation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirty dingus Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Now all the supermarkets are getting it in the neck to shut as Lidl is closing all stores. I suppose the German supermarket giants are hurting as Lizzy was one of their own. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gets bucketloads of sympathy and unctious TV time and PR now that Brenda's snuffed it. This leads seamlessly into......... 2. Poppy Season, a few weeks of serious flag shagging and 'Who won the war' gammonati bullshit, taking us into ............... 3. Santa / Panto Season, when King Chuckles gets to address the nation for his first Xmas Message and thank the country for the marvellous mourning and outpouring of national grief as we all huddle around the telly, trying to get a small pigeon and a potato to feed a family of 6. Huzzah ! I think he should do some of this in drag until the public get use to it not being the Queen anymore. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny that the press have gone with "obscenities". There's no way this isn't getting dropped when nobody's interested anymore. They can always imply that it was at the generous request of Pronce Andrew himself. 41 minutes ago, Florentine_Pogen said: Back in the days before 24 hr telly and the BBC shut down at circa. 11pm, they played the Nashnull Anfem. Every fvcking night. That's such a strange thing to think back on, but I think it was still happening until I was in my teens. Just the idea of the TV stations shutting down at night seems so odd now. For folk too young to remember, even after the BBC notionally turned 24-hour, they would just show pages of Teletext past a certain time of night. Teletext was...erm...like a shit internet with only one general purpose website, and instead of scrolling through articles, they would display as a series of pages, with each one appearing on screen for a set period of time. So if you clocked in at page three of ten, you had to wait for it to cycle back through to page one again. BBC2 also used to show educational programmes in the early morning hours. University students and teachers would set their video cassette recorder (kind of like a shit Sky box) to record them then watch them as part of their course, or take them in to show the kids at school. Everything was so shit that being urged to pray for the salvation of a divine monarch when the programmes finished didn't stand out as particularly weird. 35 minutes ago, AuAl said: This apparently A season ticket holder tweeted that at their football club, after which the club phoned them to say they were never, ever welcome to watch their team or contribute money to it in any way, and they'd be telling all the other clubs to keep an eye out for them in case they tried to sneak in there too. The club were so proud of themselves that they then followed that up with a gloating letter in which they claimed they had contacted the police. Huh. Folk will occasionally post about the generally shocking state of towns in Lancashire, but it's safe to say that Preston is the biggest shithole I've ever visited, full of entire rows of empty terraced housing, piles of rubbish strewn across the pavements, and empty grocery stores with handwritten 'SEX SHOP' signs on A4 paper. I'm not saying that this has confirmed my view of the town as a backwoods post-apocalyptic nightmare populated by Hills Have Eyes-style mutant gammonmonsters, but...well, yeah, it has. Can we class this guy as a refugee? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's joyous to watch; like a kid on Christmas Day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't say my mental health is suffering as I see that as distinctly separate, but my mood is definitely fairly dismal right now because I'm fucking sick of living in a country that is increasingly becoming the sort of place I despise, politicians who are openly running a criminal cartel being feted like national heroes, and this latest royal insanity at a time where people are genuinely facing a struggle to feed themselves and heat their homes, and the atmosphere of compelled participation and mass virtue-signalling. I'm still extremely bitter about my EU citizenship being removed against my will, so to see the UK so quickly become the sort of insular, ignorant, race-to-the-bottom shithole that was predicted by most around 2014-2016 is extremely frustrating.
