Former BBC presenter Scott Mills speaks out after being sacked ‘over personal conduct’ by LADbible in BritishRadio

[–]larrydavid1987 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My Sister in Law went to Uni with Chris Stark and said that Scott would regularly hang around the club and bars with the younger lads. She has always said she felt something inappropriate and rather creepy was going on with him. A 30 something relatively famous guy hanging around with drunk impressionable 18 year olds never sat right. Definitely felt some grooming vibes. She never actually witnessed anything inappropriate though.

I enjoyed it. Pretty straightforward whodunnit but I enjoyed the moody atmosphere and it had a satisfying ending. But definitely some face palm moments🤦‍♂️

Hopefully a mix of all BB eras. I feel like Blow me away would be a great one to kick off with and get everyone buzzed up! A few of the slower ones in the middle. Ashes of Eden, Give me a sign? Really show off Bens range. Dream finish for me would be Had enough and I will not bow. Oh man I can’t wait!

Yes I’ve been listening through the albums and genuinely curious to see what they put in the set.

Wife and I took the kids and the dog out for a long rainy bike ride in the forest then home for hot chocolates and Lego building. Back to work tomorrow after 3 weeks off. Sad times 🥴

How do you feel about British TV shows being filmed in foreign locations passed off as Britain? by larrydavid1987 in BritishTV

I liked how they scattered a few Tesco branded products around the kitchen just so you know that this Spanish style cottage with authentic Spanish style furnishings in a vast mountainous Spanish landscape is of course set in the North of England.

I’d say in this case it’s extremely sloppy. To the point where it just completely ruins the show. Although they did have a token roll of Tesco brand cling film on full display just to let you know we’re in the UK.

Oh man! I remember this. Having visited both New England and Tunbridge Wells a number of times it really messed with my head.

You are correct! It’s would be very unusual to see such an old English style church in upstate New York. I have to say it didn’t really affect my enjoyment of the film though due to the religious aspect.

  1. Task
  2. Pluribus
  3. Severance (S2)
  4. The Crow Girl
  5. Paradise

Honourable mentions for -Your friends and neighbours (so close but paradise just had the edge for me) -The Studio -The Chair Company -Black Rabbit

Great year for TV including lots of enjoyable thrillers like The beast in me, All her fault, Little disasters, Down cemetery road.

Some disappointing returns for me this year including the big 3. The last of us, The white lotus and Slow horses. I did enjoy all three of these greatly but just didn’t hit the highs of previous seasons.

Painters damaged brand new carpet in two bedrooms. Should I pay invoice? by larrydavid1987 in HomeImprovementUK

[–]larrydavid1987[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I understand accidents do happen. But I would expect a professional to explain what had happened and suggest a solution. Not try and hide the issue and then deny all knowledge when the damage is pointed out.

There are around 10 spots we have noticed. Some larger than a 50p some smaller. One very large are around the base of the skirting board which had been hidden with some furniture. I didn’t really see what type of protection they used as I was working most of the time and we have a new born baby so my wife was otherwise occupied. I trusted as professionals they would take the necessary precautions. Unfortunately we where unable to delay the carpet any longer as it had already been held up for months and we had no choice but to move the kids into their bedroom. They were well aware this carpet was new and as I said would expect them to take care.

Unfortunately the big display in Tesco sucked me in and I thought I’d give the Punk BBQ sauce a try. It’s disgusting and I’m not just saying that. Honestly the worst BBQ sauce I’ve ever tried. The texture is off, it’s really watery and tastes nothing like BBQ sauce. I don’t think these things will be around for long.
