Be Excellent To Each Other

Saturday night on ITV has been totally shit for as long as I can remember and while I have nothing against aunt and dick, the absence of Shiturday Takeaway won’t concern me in the slightest.

The point was they had to replace the show because Ant got pissed and had crashed his car.

Well, yes, I understand. The lad’s got problems and I hope he gets straightened out. In the meantime, they’ve replaced one load of crap with another.

A very useful resource.

I feel much safer knowing DMX is in jail.

Nooooo - they replaced a thing caused by a man crashing his car with a film about crashing lots of cars.

'Replaced' is a bit strong. They've brought it forward from 22:45 to 22:15.

Is 5 the one with the tunnels, or the magnetic suspension one?

Bored one Saturday last year, I tried to watch the Ant & Dec show. I lasted five minutes.

Starring a man who died in a car crash

Hopefully he'll learn the error of his ways and stop drink-driving instead of giving me a point on the deathpool.

I think it's the one with the safe.

YeAh. I liked that one. Why was there a safe? Doesn't matter. vroom

I see lots of Paul Walker quotes on cars, but I never see "("NO!" - Taste Ed)

Google Photos is hilariously inappropriate when tagging my photos and suggesting modifications.

Because of work i have a huge folder with cemetery pictures (like mausoleums and tombstones), and google photos suggested me to edit the pictures with popart-like colours.

Much of my pictures are of un-glamorous construction works, and google photos is always nagging me to put some glitter effects and similar stuff.

The facial recognition in Google Photos is fucking voodoo.

Amazing what you can do with unlimited cash and everyone's personal information.

Long may it continue.

Not sure what has happened here, he failed a roadside breathalyzer test and was then arrested and released 10 hours later

No charges though so could he have passed at the station?

It's rolling doubles that did it

Or being rich and famous.

He hasn't been charged yet, but he was "released pending investigation"

You either pass or fail with the breathalyzer though? So I would have expected him to have been charged if he was over?

I doubt he will get a pass for this if he was over?

C'mon. This was a brilliant booze and monopoly joke.

He doesn't have to be charged straight away.

The 5-0 have leverage on him now - he'll probably end up wearing a wire to try to reel in a big fish.

The feds have got eyes on Geoff and Spuggy running an illicit drug ring from the Grove.

The only people anyone ever remembers from Byker Grove are PJ, Duncan, Geoff and Spuggie. What about... Erm, the one, you know...

All jokes aside there must be some worried executives at ITV.

These 2 host their 3 biggest shows, they get 20 million in sponsorship from a car company as well.

So far from what little I've subjected myself to on Twitter and Facebook on this topic, there is a fair bit of sympathy for him. So guess he will be ok once he does the appropriate amount of penance in rehab and does another "exclusive" interview with the Sun.

You won't be surprised to read my sympathy is limited He has some addiction and possible mental illness, and there I do have sympathy, all his money and fame won't help him or make him happy.

But at the same time, the drink driving this is out of order (if it's proven to be the case) I'm really surprised to see so many people gloss over that part on social media

And Charlie (because Donna Air).

And now I've got that dam theme tune and opening titles in my head. Grrr..

Dec on his own!

Was it Tony or Toby, the gallumphing bully who looked like Andy Carroll who was worried he might be gay?

I kind of remember him.

He's been charged now.

Why do Marxists play Cluedo? They don't like Monopoly.

The weird thing is that Monopoly was created as an anti-capitalist social commentary. http://simulations.wharton.upenn.edu/20 ... /monopoly/

And like anti-capitalist social commentary it drones on for hours, and you end up with no friends?

If you can't/won't provide an evidential breath sample at the station, they can require a specimen of blood or urine instead which has to be sent off and tested. That usually takes longer than a day or two.

Even if he did provide a sample of breath, if there were medical reasons why he wasn't able to be charged at the time such as needing to go to hospital then he'd have had to return to be charged.

Still sore about yesterday, aren't you?

Ex- copper, right?

And Noddy!

Here’s something I’ve wondered in the past... if someone refuses to give a breath sample, and the police ‘require’ a blood/urine sample, what happens if you just refuse that, in turn? I’ve seen on TV where people have basically delayed the process so long that their blood-alcohol level diminishes and they are no longer over the limit (I watch 24 Hours in police custody... just watching out for Grim... mostly)

Not giving a sample is also a Bad Thing.

I don't get it.

Or was it Nobby?
