Wogan, Woss and Norton should deffo get the chop


the last named preferably across the back of the neck with a sharp sword

[cheries]

Blunt sword Elvis.
So it would hurt more.

[China Doll]

Could we get rid of Brucie too?

He murders my enjoyment of Come Dancing.

[ELVIS68]

Deffo a sharp sword cheries

wouldn`t want to hear him scream any more than he does already

[cheries]

Sorry, venting anger now;
Jonathan Toss is paid 6 million quid a year?

That makes my blood boil. My brother is a scientist for the NHS and studied for 6 years to get where he is. He earns �19,000.
I am a former English Teacher who worked at 11+ level. I was paid �17,000.
My Mum is an educational psychologist for the NHS. She is paid just over �30,000.
And this useless pile of sh!te is paid �6,000,000 for everyone to laugh at his lisp???????
GGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

[danchip]

its not so much the big name dj's they need to cut back on
take for example chris moyles' breakfast show
there are 4 producers, someone to read the news someone to read the sport and comedy dave, it costs over 1 million per year for this one show alone

i would cut down on the number of people working on each show

[garner]

All should go, they are paid far too much money for so little talent.

[cheries]

At least Big Terry is funny when he does Eurovision.
Make that hilarious.

[ELVIS68]

Wossy doesn`t have a lisp, he just can`t pwonounce his arse

[cambus]

Ditch all radio output.
Transfer radio 3 and 4 to television, leaving the commercial stations to broadcast the rest of the trash.
Massive savings to be had, with the closure of all those local stations throughout the UK.
How can it justify having tv production studios all over the UK, when most of its output is now made by independent companies and on location shooting, again massive savings.
I'm not against these salaries, but they should not be at the expense of quality television.

[Reverandfunk]

In my opinion the bulk of radio (especially 4, 5, 7 and the world service) is better than anything on TV, although all the great BBC comedies start off on Radio 4

[smudge]

Jonathan Ross without a doubt.

We can't stand to see him on telly, or listen to him on the radio.

We instantly change stations!

[cheries]

One star Grom????
Don't you love big Terry????

[smudge]

Who would you pick Gromit?

Or is the list all the ones that you'd like to see go?

[Gromit]

cheries,

The W can be amusing on EuroVision, but EV is only 3 hours output per year, that doesn't justify �800,000.

[China Doll]

I hear Gromit loves cox.

[cheries]

*snorts*

[O'Reilly]

Wogan is not about much now and is past his sell by date -so he can go, toupees and all. Ross is far too full of himself and hogs the limelight so he can go. Norton is a poof but blatently so (and not worth all that wage) so he can go as he is not funny at all and does not give guests a chance when on his show - Chris Evans can go (I hate ginger pubes) keep the rest and make them earn their wages via a renewable 6 monthly contract of employment.

problem sorted. next question??

[China Doll]

How do you feel about Cox O'Reilly?

[ALLIGATOR]

They Definitely make the fist eleven. Alligator
