Default Fark, Fark, Faaaarrk, Mrs Skeggs!

To keep current, I watched today's episode of "A Place Down Under" in ABC TV at 6:30pm.

Mrs Skeggs: "Look at those horrible, horrible sounding birds in the tree. Even the crows are depressed because they live in Australia."

Be warned: emigrating to Australia is not yet a proven cure for depression.

Its our ABC, why choak it up with Pommy Rot? Let SBS handle ethnic programmes.

Pommy Rot it is, did not realize the ABC's budget had been stretched so threadbare.

Will write to my Prime Minister to tell him to get ABC to put back the test pattern in preference.

Actually, what you do in either country is you use the button to change channels or to switch the TV off, or read a book, or talk to someone, or play with the kids, or go for a walk, or play some sport, or pursue your hobby, or log on to BE's or write a letter to your PM or ................... get a life.

Megalania, I agree with you. If I was sat in the UK watching a BBC programme about immigrant families criticising the Uk, I might wonder what I was paying my TV licence for.

However, most of the UK don't know who you are talking about yet, and as you appeared to have caused a storm, I think you may have saved Mrs. Skegg from the waiting hounds.

The Bill most popular? Can not imagine it - gets short shrift from me - but perhaps you are right. Now I have the bit twixt my teeth, that's another one I'll have to speak sternly to the PM about.


The ABC really has gone to the dogs - look at the ABC TV Guide.

Nothing but repeats and programs for McFeeble McPoms.

9:00pm - Linda Green - BBC tripe about some used car sales clerk

9:30pm - Rescue Me - More BBC drivel - perhaps intended to aid digestion of McDonalds


Pauline Hanson - we need you !!!

I'll see if I can avoid polysyllablic words - Poms OK (mainly) - BBC drivel not OK (means do not like).

Used to have good (and occassional) BBC programs on ABC - now we have McBBC.

I don't think she does dislike poms. (Although she might ) She submits posts to invite "debate". You've taken the bait.
