have your say

So far 37500 people have complained about the whole situation. Did those 37500 people listen to the show? Or, are they actually all Daily Mail readers who have been told that they should be offended.

Why is there not a process for registering anti-complaints at the BBC? That would work really well, all the positive anti-complaints are subtracted from the actual complaints giving an overall score. So if 40,000 people registered an anti-complaint then the show would have a score of +2500 meaning it was good.

Unfortunately, there isn’t. So here’s your opportunity to register what you feel, if you think it’s all fuss over nothing, or that the reaction of the public and media is perfectly proportional.

    This whole affair is yet another example of hypocriticle this country is. Folk here get their knickers in a twist over silly little things. Somebody says a wrong word and they are made out to be Hitler. And yet loads of folk are getting away with terible things here and we can’t say or do a thing about it because of the political correctness that rules this country.

    Brand and Ross shouldn’t have done what they did, but mainly in my opinion because it wasn’t funny. Brand should go back to BB Big Mouth, because he hasn’t been any good since he left it.

    It’s absolutely ridiculous. The pair apologised and said they regretted leaving the message on the actual pre-recorded show. Fair enough they shouldn’t have done it in the first place. I was in my local Tesco last week and overheard an old couple, looking at the papers labelling the pair as “guilty yobs” – GUILTY YOBS! It made me realise that the thousands of complaints were probably from these out of touch OAPs who don’t even pay the TV licence! Yobs? Ridiculous. The complainers haven’t even listened to the show.

    Bring Jonathan Back NOW you bunch of complete tossers. The program was pre recorded so you either liked the content, did not listen to it properly, or saw the opportunity to kill two birds with one stone. The joke was not good and for that reason alone it should have been edited out the rest is all fodder and hypocrisy. Without Jonathan the BBC has no one worthy of interviewing top draw stars unless there are a bunch of has beens trying to climb out of obscurity by dancing badly

    I fail to see any valid reason why this whole affair was given so much importance to begin with. The poor girl gets upset that her granddaddy finds out she’s not a virgin. Well being part of “Satanic Sluts” would be a subtle little hint for grandpa already, now wouldn’t it…
