They are filling in time until Cameron goes to the Palace to be
appointed PM in about 15 mins time (apparently). It looks as though
Cameron will become PM before any deal has been done with the Lib Dems.

Because it is a dark day for the BBC.

Soon it will be put at the mercy of Uncle Rupert who will
have it carved up even more and sold off.

Not at all. But I am a Holby fan and that new show that started last week,
Luther, is well worth a second look.

What I object to is the complete meaningless drivel that reporters and news
staff drag out inbetween the important bits, ie, "Well, here we are, waiting
for Gordon Brown to come out of the front door and get into his car." WHY???
It's a bloke, getting into a car!!! I've just seen my next-door neighbour
doing the same thing.

Dimbleby even said something along the lines (can't remember the exact
words) of, "Interesting to note how the guards saluted Mr. Brown as his car
passed, even though he is no longer the Prime Minister." INTERESTING???

AARRGGHH!!!!!!

And they completely messed up the EPG. Just before the special programme
ended the freeview EPG was showing 19:00-20:50 News Special, 20:30-21:00
Holby, 20:50-21:20 Eastenders, 21:00-22:00 Luther.

BBC3 EPG is still showing Eastenders at 22:00-22:30 as usual despite the
episode on BBC1 being postponed until tomorrow. So, I wonder if it will
be a case of BBC3 viewers seeing it first or whether there will be a
changed of schedule 'at the last minute'

Because the BBC is controlled and managed by Grauniad readers -
i.e. bearded lefties who think they know best.

I hope Cameron has the strength to bring them to heel.
