I am surprised I made it! :lol:

Plenty of comments pointing out that
1) The coins are Celtic, not Roman and
2) 15 BC is not 'prehistoric'

Tsk, education standards in McBroon's Britain are dropping.

Since when has the period 40BC and 15AD been prehistoric? I would suggest that your "Daily Mail Reporter" looks the word up in a dictionary as he does not know its' meaning.

I used to love watching his shoes-RIP Mr Hart.

From the article about the death of Tony Hart. I used to love his shows, despite my ineptitude in the art field, but I'm afraid his footwear passed me by. And now it's too late.

A mistake like that is inexcusable when your commenting on the death of someone

AOB · **Posted:** Mon Jan 19, 2009 4:04 pm

At the very least the mods could've amended it, regardless of whether it was intentional or not. They've edited comments from people on here enough times.

Let's hope all companies, including the Daily Mail General Trust, follow the BBC's courageous lead.

From the "return of Ross/Brand appearing on stage around the UK" article, itself more shameless than they claim Ross to be

Quote:

RE Sam from Wales initial comment.

He hasn't an "once" of brain? One assumes you mean ounce. "So called television program"? Like it or not it is a television programme (please note the UK spelling of the word rather than your vulgar Americanisation), it is produced to be broadcast via the medium of television, so therefore qualifies on all levels. May I suggest that if you wish to appear, intelligent and to deride others for their lack of brains, you ensure that your misguided ramblings are vaguely intelligent and correct themselves.
Now, that's how you do smug and patronising right there. Gives me a warm glow inside.

Of course he does, and YOU PAID for a ticket. I can despise him, his so called ''humour'' and keep my £23.50, thereby NOT contributing to his smugness. Why didn't you do the same ?
This whole article is worth hundreds of thousands of pounds in free advertising for him. Until I read this article, I didn't even know he was in the country, even less had a ''show'' on the road.

They had 40,000 people complaining about their vile comments and Ross earns £6 million a year and all taken fro the English residents who pay for their TV programmes

They should both be dumped and not allowed to comment on their vile comments. They were completely out of line but Ross is back and getting £6 million a year from the English residents viewing TV which is a complete con

I don't know what is more tragic. The fact that you are commenting on how disgraceful Brands programs are, when you have never seen anything he has done, or the fact that 3 people have given your comment a positive ratiing.

Schoolgirls banned from lessons for being 'too blonde'

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... l#comments

hardly unusual, I remember girls being suspended for dying their hair when I was at school. I like this comment though:

Quote:

You should take this to the court of human rights. A few years ago, a boy who was being threatened with expulsion for wearing jis hair too long, took his case there and won. Sounds like some teachers are just as petty as they ever were. Its grades and behaviour that matter

It's funny how Mailites are all in favour of human rights when it suits them - i.e. when they think they are above the rules.

She's not on ITV. GMTV is a separate station. Wonder if the second part would have been allowed if the story was slightly different and he replaced "woman" with "black".
