For a journalist specifically listing TV quotes quite a few of those are incorrect. You would think they would take the time to record the program and play back the bits they wanted to quote a few times to be sure they heard it properly.

That aside, glad to see the Brixton ladies are back lining the pockets of their local takeaways. hehe

They don't like to cook, fantastic series who would have thought other people watching tv could be so entertaining?

Out of interest a few examples wouldn't go amiss.

The long-haired teenager with the German father (assumption)... has his cheese actually fallen off his cracker?

Reported in article:

“For my third and fourth child, I said I’m not taking out nothing - take it out yourself.”

Actual:

“For my third and fourth, I said no way, I’m not pushing out nothing - take it out yourself.”

Reported in Article:

“Do you remember how you got your scrubs on? You looked like George Clooney.”

Actual:

“Do you remember when you had to put your scrubs on? You looked like George Clooney.”

Reported:

“Why does everything have to be about food?”

Actual:

"It always goes back to food with you."

Reported:

"There’s so many men in the world that hate each other, why do they kick off when two love each other...”

Actual:

"There’s so many men in the world that hate each other, why did the church kick off when two love each other...”


Those were just a few that were easy to find. It may be nitpicking, but if the article is about quotes, the quotes should at the very least be accurate.

He's not the son of the adults in that house, he's the boyfriend of the chubby girl. I don't even think the German guy is her father either because I'm sure she used his name at some point instead of calling him dad.

Just caught up on this weeks show tonight, it was a good one! The posh couple need a show of their own, like a kind of post watershed Richard and Judy where they just get drunk and interview random people.

Thanks redtwin for pointing out mistakes. Wonder if it's sloppy reporting by taking quotes off some Internet quote site or wherever rather than doing job correctly. So much journalism is rip off copy paste these days.

I can see them popping on tv somewhere in the future, they've been on another programme already too - 4 in a bed, they were good on that too.

The indignation about Noel Edmunds not paying for a TV licence, but being happy to use the Catchup service seemed to be shared by all.

Always suspicious about people with beards.

Was that for real or just a wind-up?

(The TV licence bit - not the beard bit).

What made me ROFL was the fact that the Asian lads were discussing who was in Edmonds consortium and they ventured that 'Mr Blobby must be there' 'and Cheggers - he's got to have Cheggers'

About an hour later there was some other review type programme on with Edmonds and his buy the BBC scheme - and there he is, sat next to him, in all his glory - Keith Chegwin.

If you Google "noel edmonds tv licence", this goes back a few years.

He's missing his true calling in politics.

http://www.tvlicenceresistance.info/forum/index.ph...

"Mr Edmonds lives near Grasse, in the South of France, and stays at a house in the west of England when recording his Channel 4 show. "

Tax efficient perhaps ?

Can hardly expect someone who doesn't even live in the country to pay for a TV license. If he doesn't own that house where he stays, he may not even own a TV in this country.
