Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Every day, the BBC showing a different 'news' story of how someone coated in makeup and with enormous pouting lips is coping with lockdown. AND PRESENTING THIS AS A MENTAL HEALTH STORY! FFS.

You forgot to mention the weirdly thick eyebrows too McG.

[Not surprisingly, a YouGov poll shows that the public increasingly considers media coverage of the covid crisis to have been poor.]

As I understand it, using a mobile phone while driving is dangerous because a large chunk of your cognitive powers are devoted to the call and the amount left over for safe driving is dangerously restricted. So, why is it OK for television presenters to do a piece-to-camera while they are driving? Especially when they keep looking at the camera.

How can that be driving with due car and attention?

I could go on a long reason why but letโ€™s just keep it short and say that he annoys the hell out of me immensely.
