Now there's absolutely NO reason to watch the politically
corrupt BBC

Yeah, Paul Merton is slated to host this week's show - this
sounds like the death kneel for Have I Got News For You...

:-(

paul merton hosting the show?

but the great thing about that show was paul merton being
quite for the majority and then suddenly opening his gob and
slagging everything off and being plain hilarious.

so, yeah, why did he get the sack?

No Jonesy, you don't understand politics at all- you get
promotion to the inner cabinet for acting like a tory mp ;)

i thought snorting cocaine & sleeping with prostitutes was a
pre-requisite when working for the beeb, not a sacking
offense

I think the problem the BBC had was that, after getting
slagging from Christine Hamilton the week previous, and of
course last week, it was getting boring, and although it was
extremely funny at first, there's only so long they can
carry on with the presenter being the subject of the
headlines.

ever get the feeling this is more of the 'rockstar ate my
hamster' syndrome, i.e. all publicity is good publicity.
they has probably planned to sack him ages ago.

the series stopped being funny a few years back. My bet is
the whole "Have I got news" ship is finally on the way
down.

the formula seems really hackneyed, stale & smug now

I think that he WAS the show, be he was right to be fired

If I'd been found out doing something like that in my
company I probably would be sacked too !

series to be funny :)
