I disagree, correct spelling and grammar are actually 100% pres related !
Sorry this isn't pres related but it's being annoying me for some time. Can someone change "you'l" to "you'll" in the thread tagine thing?

I concur with this, there are contributors to this forum who plainly never proof read their written thoughts before posting. Sometimes I'm at a loss as to the real meaning of their comment.

Proofread is one word. Honestly, it's like reading The Guardian in here sometimes...

In my copy of The Concise Oxford Dictionary (1st Edition, 1911), it's hyphenated. Then again, the very same dictionary doesn't have the word "television" in it.

I use the traditional spelling - two separate words - "proof read" - which then over time became a hypenated compound noun - "proof-read", then finally a closed spelling, as one word - "proofread". All are correct.
Similarly "today" started life as "to day" in Middle English times, then for several hundred years became "to-day" as evidenced from historical writings and manuscripts, finally becoming the modern, closed spelling we know "today"
None of which you'd be likely to find in The Grauniad, famous as it is for piss-poor spelling!

I find it hilarious that the current W1A-Comic Relief trailers, with spoof ideas for rebranding such as "Brown Nose Day", are juxtaposed directly with all this Oneness nonsense.
It's either the BBC knowing how to laugh at itself or a case of an organisation with a sheer lack of self-awareness and not knowing its a**e from its elbow.

Crimewatch has got even more confused with what it wants to be based on last night, they wanted a 'special' episode (there is another 'special' episode next week according to the TV listings so it might be a while series thing) on one theme but still shoved some appeals in the middle.
If they want a 'special' it shouldn't really be called Crimewatch as such, one problem is with the appeals it'll also only be on iPlayer for 24 hours
They also obviously spent far too much on the mobile studio as that is back although maybe not quite so mobile after the local resident extras last series!
