Chris Eubank (knobsmile )

I wonder if I could get away with his style - waistcoat, tie, no sleeve shirt - maybe I shouldn't try it smile

In fact, maybe he shouldn't try it either!

How the hell did this woman get a talk show, are they really that desperate or does she have some serious dirt on someone high up?

Quite like Eubank. Very clever man, and a boxing great.

Yes, very clever. He told me himself.........laugh

And it's pugilist, never boxer.

Because it is BBC Standard Operating Procedure - perceive you have someone the "great British public" likes/finds inoffensive, then utterly, utterly overexpose them on everything from royal weddings to sporting occasions (as an ex-oarsmen, I get incandescent with rage that they wheel her out for the Boat Race, when she clearly knows sweet, fking, sodding FA about the sport). It drives me spare.

I think you mean BT Sport Standard Operating Procedure seeing as it's a show that is paid for, produced, etc by, and broadcast in the first instance on, BT Sport.

It was mentioned on a few of the many Clarkson threads, when CB's name got brought up, that all the BBC did was pay for the rights to show a delayed repeat after it has already first aired a night or two before on BT Sport.

I detest the bloody woman!

She is one of those people who cannot talk without her hands flying all over the bloody place.

The female equivalant of Adrian Chiles for repulsiveness.

Have they ever been seen on TV at the same time?

That is a valid point Sir, too much for one cameraman to handle.

Maybe they are kept apart in case they breed, the offspring doesn't bear thinking about.
