Ahhhh - a classic episode encompassing mobile phones, driving, IT.....

Some of the comments on driving were priceless - I don't know who the commentator was but he was pointing out that if pedestrians strayed on the road, Darwinian theory was correct in removing them from the gene pool.

BBC had scrolling apologies at this point, asking viewers not to write in!

Damn straight. I utterly loathe the text patois that has to include

"da"
"inda"
"u"
"m8"

What crap. The English Language is one of the most expressive in the world. Why murder it!

John Peel. What a man. Likes TVRs too...
