And getting on a bit, you might find fun. You can find out what was on BBC tv and radio the day you were born. Jim'll Fix it, Dr Who and Match of the Day make up some the stuff that was on telly the day of my birth. |

He was probably fucking you in the nascent bum hole as he was recording the show. Savile, not Dr Who, obviously. Though, WHO KNOWS!?!?!?! |

Was addicted to ceefax. I still use teletext on the channels that still support it. Great for browsing the news in the morning. |

I met this amusing Brit on the last night of ATP last november, in a challet that hosted a rather dodgy but splendid afterparty on the final night of part 2. He reminded me of Super Hans from the Peep Show and he said that it was typically British to staand in a cue, even for reasons unknown. So if a Brit passes a line of people - this bloke claimed - it would be typically British for them to feel an urge to join the cue, even if they didn't know what they were lining up for? Was he on to something or just doing a routine? |

We know how to queue without a fuss. Ultimately it saves time to be orderly and to just REMAIN CALM AT ALL TIMES. I remember being in Athens when the underground started and it was utter chaos. I don't think british people enjoy queuing though. I think your amusing brit was being humorous. |

I suppose I'm part Brit seeing as I was thrown into the government school system at the age of 7. I remember being chased and getting hugs from the girls on th eplayground. Other boys didn't like that so much. Gave me a hard time for it. Stabbed a boy with a pencil. Got kicked out. Born on a Saturday. Jim'll fix it was on for me too. Shit. And Wogan @ 10 - they haven't uncovered anything about him yet, have they? |

Although that family-curbing idea is ofcourse insane, I am pleasantly surprised by Oddie's pro-immigration stance. I had no idea - I always reckoned he was just a self-important twat. |

Strange.. no idea why the site let's me read the article. Anyways, here's the digest: British families should be “contained” to stop them having too many children, Bill Oddie has said. The Springwatch presenter claimed the answer to over-population was not curbing immigration, but restricting the size of families. Oddie made his comments on BBC One’s Sunday Morning Live during a debate entitled: “Is the UK too hostile to immigration?” The 73-year-old former member of The Goodies said: “There should just as likely be a restriction on the number of children that British people have because over-population is what you are talking about here, the big problem. “So you say these perfectly well-qualified people can’t come in, but the woman down the road has just had her 10th baby. Well I’m sorry, but they are the people that really should be contained. It would make a difference.” Oddie has three daughters from two marriages and lives in Hampstead, north London, with his wife, Laura Beaumont. ** Earlier in the programme he claimed he was “ashamed” to be British. He said: “Historically, we seem to have built up this ridiculous idea that, 'Oh, we are British, this is our island and we don’t want anybody else in it.’ “I personally loathe that kind of chauvinism and I’m happy to say I’m not proud to be British. In fact, I’m very often ashamed to be British. We are a terrible race, all the hooliganism and God knows what.” ** “What I’m saying is that without a doubt during my lifetime I’ve seen the whole culture absolutely burgeon because of immigrants. “I love the fact that I walk down the road in north London, and down here’s an Indian shop, and there’s another Indian stationers there, and this one is run by someone from Iran, and there’s a West Indian guy who runs that bit, and we’ve got the Romanian builders next door who don’t play the radio as loud as English builders.” |

How do you interpret he is? Thanks qrter. Nice to see he's not fallen in the scaremongering trap. I can't read the article because they allow you 10 free articles a month. Then they block access to any of their pages and they ask a minimum of 4 quid. I'm not outraged by that fact but I don't have Paypal or a credit card and it's not worth the hassle asking someone. |
