Beeb

He was talking about offloading responsibility to the Beeb but could have meant their no-show.

Yesterday the Beeb tweeted: "We have agreed with Charlie Sloth that he'll not be presenting any further editions of The 8th and The Rap Show for Radio 1 and 1Xtra."

So basically the Government has had the Beeb by the short and curlies and somehow moved the money they had to pay onto them.

The Beeb's show enjoyed 65 per cent of the Scottish audience share while STV's Swing Into 2014, fronted by Michelle McManus, got just 6.75 per cent.

The Tannadice club are refusing to talk to the Beeb, as well as STV, as they felt the incident in last week's 1-0 defeat to Celtic was unfairly singled out on Sunday's Sportscene.

BBC bosses are pleading with fans heading to a big Birmingham convention: "Help us find the missing Doctor Who tapes!" Archivists at the Beeb are desperate to track down rare broadcasts as TV's top-rated time lord beams down to Brum.

A MUSEUM showcasing 50 years of classic BBC shows is set to be part of the deal for whoever buys the Beeb's TV Centre in London.

As the row over director general Mark Thompson's proposed pounds 600m cut to the service today focused on the closure of digital radio channels 6 Music and the Asian Network, Teesside's Mark Elliott said listening figures should not determine spending policy at the Beeb. He welcomed the opening of the BBC's first major studio outside the Southeast and urged local media companies to up their game in response.

THE Beeb are going a little Victoria Wood mad this Christmas, with the comedienne featuring in several oneoff programmes over the festive season.

It is also a sad day for the mad mullahs and wannabe suicide bombers, who get a great big pat on the back from the Beeb every time they commit an atrocity.

IT is interesting to note how coy the Beeb is about the sort of people who trash cars, commit arson and desecrate graves all in the name of animal rights.
