juvenal Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 What's happening to all the news? Nothing is happening anywhere, and I'm reduced to reading about swarms of ladybirds in Somerset; python hunts in Florida, and one of the extras from Dad's Army kicking the bucket. Is the world slowing down? Is there no crime and scandal because all those spiv MP's are on holiday in the Cayman Islands? The liveliest thread on HPC is about saving money by using your semen as Prittstick, or loginandtonic's dodgy cheese problems! There's nothing going on!!! Why????

Moo Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 There's nothing going on!!! Erm, it's an annual thing called "summer". It was like this the last couple of years as well, and will no doubt be this way on an annual basis forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the jizz Pritt stick substitute was an HPC low point though, I think, you may have started the ball rolling with your wiping your knob on the curtains comment. I can imagine news editors leafing through stories all day, 'economy bad, economy bad, economy bad, Oo monkey playing a banjo - doh because band can no longer afford session musicians'.

okaycuckoo Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 All the journos are holidaying on Rupert's big island of happiness ... with their bad haircuts and sexual insecurities. It's a right orgy of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boomer! Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 There is some news. Mandelson has finally realised the country hate his and Labours particular brand of leadership. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/8173663.stm When I say leadership I'm obviously refering to their following the advice of any hand wringing leftwing think tank/quango nonsense, that maybe okay in their fantasy land, but hasnt been relevant in the real world.

Victor_Broom Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 There's nothing going on!!! Does there have to be something going on? News is cr@p and overated IMO. Apart from Happy News. Surely it is when things are going on that you should be worried. As in, misdirection, shock doctrine and all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Private Sponge (Colin Bean) was no mere extra, he had many speaking parts. His autobiography was reprinted three times.

juvenal Posted July 29, 2009 Author Share Posted July 29, 2009 I always felt Pt Sponge was vastly inferior to that Welsh photographer soldier, with the tombstone teeth, glasses and speech impediment. Sponge never had real charisma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sponge never had real charisma. Method acting. He was playing a typical Tommy. The Welsh one was good, he is of that mad mould like Sylvester McCoy and Ian McDiarmid. I'm never sure which is which in the old programmes (I thought Reg Smeaton was McCoy for years, it's McDiarmid). Just looked him up - Talfryn Thomas.
