BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

The BBC have been fine £150,000 for the Brand/Ross saga, Its been reported that some MPs are demanding that these two P*****ks pay this fine themselves, do you agree, I know I do, even then they'll have got off lightly:(

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

So they end up Paying £75,000 each if they do, that's pocket money to both of them & with a decent accountant they will probably be able to write it off as some sort of Tax Loss as a business expense!

i aint sure, reckon the BBC are just as responsible, no executive even watched the "Pre-Recorded" show. end of the day the pair should have been consigned to television history, but thats another issue. are ya saying the "Beeb" are blameless in this debacle jaysay? cos i don't think so.:)

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

Who will the money go to?
And who will it benefit?

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

not only do we have to pay a extortinate tv licenece for the talentless morons megga wages but we now have to foot the bill for his and his friends disgusting antics

every penny the bbc uses to pay a fine is coming out of our pockets

yes woss and his buddy shoudl pay their own fines

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

No I don't think the Beeb are blameless cash, but why the hell should the fine come out of the licence payer, and that's what it will as the BBC don't have money it all comes out of our pockets, so why should we pay for these two miscreants antics:(

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

At the end of the day, I thought it was funny, no-one died and to be honest, in the grand scheme of things when helicopters are falling from the sky and gunmen are wandering around shooting indiscriminately, we have riots on the streets of London and peoples body parts turning up in fields; does it really matter that much????:rolleyes:

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

i would say it does , if somone rang my grandparents up spouting filth at them about family members i would hit them

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

That's what most of us would want to do accyman, especially in the case of Brand and Ross:rolleyes:

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

Well if the BBC pay, we're basicly just paying for it ourselves. :rolleyes: They seem to have loads of money to waste though.

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

if they got rid of the B,B,C .Maybe we could save our licence fee,,,,,:idunno::idunno:

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

dont get me started on this lol

we live in a supposedly free society but we are FORCED to pay for a service wether we want it or not

its no different than me selling dog turds and teh government forcing you to buy them or face a huge fine or prison

you dont want them , you may want to buy them from somewhere else but you cant because the law says you have to buy from me

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

While I agree with Less about them finding some way of defraying the cost through some tax loophole.......I still think these overgrown schoolboys(and that is an insult to schoolboys, that isn't intended) should have to foot the bill.

And Lindsay, while no-one died, and you found it funny......I think it was an affront to decency which has to be nipped in the bud.
I would not want an elderly grandparent of mine to be subjected to this kind of stunt....and I suspect you wouldn't like it to happen to yours either.

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

well said margaret , i think its safe to say most decent thinking people wouldnt find an attack on any elderly person like that funny or acceptable wether they be family or not

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

Each to their own, my opinion etc.:)

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

Of course. That is what makes the world go around different ideas and opinions.

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

yep but it poses the question, would you not mind yer elderly relatives being treated like that on national television linds? would ya find that funny?:confused:

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

To be honest Cashy, my opinion would be different if the girl involved wasn't such a trollop, if anything it has probably opened their eyes, albeit it in a far too public way.

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

I, personally don't think it makes a difference if the girl is a trollop(She has made her choices in life, as we all do, and anyway who are we to make judge her).....her grandfather did not need to hear of it in such a fashion........and the two men involved in this sad, sick affair had absolutely no respect of her as a person by doing what they did....and this devalues them.(Brand and Ross)They actually disrespected her and her family in what they thought was a funny prank

I wonder if Jonathon Ross would like to hear about his own grandaughters (when and if he ever has one) sex life in such a manner......I rather think that he would be mortified too.

Cashy, I was just agreeing that Lindsay has a right to her opinion, and I have a right to mine......the fact that they differ is what make life'interesting' for want of a better word.

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

thats the point to me, i was no mr nice guy when young, but i left home at nearly 16 until 22, thinking me parents/family wouldn't get my crap on there doorstep,i did what the hell i wanted, seems this girl did similar, but her family are in the public eye to a degree, so these 2 ******* used that fact without regard fer the crap it would cause her family, anyone can slag me off, i can handle it, but god help anyone who causes me family grief. i would think many are of a similar mind.

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

I agree with Lindsay. I await with glee the fire and brimstone upon my exit from this mortal coil :)

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

I'm of the same opinion cashy, I can handle anything thrown at me, but if somebody tries to get at me through my family, look out

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

get a grip mate that happened last century

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

who you sleep with is no concern of mine pal but i admire your honesty :eek:

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

I find that is more suble to use italics and small font to convey subliminal messaging ;)

Re: BBC fine for Brand and Ross
 

Well I like Peter too, I'll let him know he has an ardent fan:rolleyes:
