I used to listen to Mark on GMR Radio. Alfamale writes very much as Mark speaks in my opinion. Perhaps they are "good friends"!

It was meant to read '' this bulletin least'' - but clearly had a typo.
A bit like your attempt to quote it and then you write ''bullitin'' not ''bulletin''.
But then you choose to divert the thread rather than address the issue of the most recent postings.
Mark - good, bad or just new boy nerves?
Ah QPSK, I forgot you won't address that because you too seem to speak with ''inside knowledge'' and then prefer to bully anyone who disagrees.

TVA, just like Swedish wondered what you ment, typo's happen, no need to be silly now is there.

Mark, well I'm sure he'll settle in very quickly. You sit there and present to nearly a million people. lets see how good you are in your first week.

As for bullying people who don't agree, not true, I just can't be doing with idiots......

TV Addict - to accuse someone of bullying is a very strong accusation – I hope you can back up such a remark (as I’ve not seen enough evidence here on the forum). Maybe we should just return to commenting on programmes .. if you are capable of it?

I would have thought being called an idiot is a start.
(By the way is there meant to be irony in your mis-spelling of ''ment''?!!)
But then claiming nearly one million people watch the late regional opt on BBC NW is also entertaining.

As for watching and commenting on the Programmes recently both NWT and GR have had some excellent items.
But how come tonight NWT, who cover the Isle of Man, only had a phono with the father of Stephen Oake, but Granada who don't had an on-camera interview with him?
Surely if Granada can get that then as it's NWT's area then they should be able to get on the day reaction?

Well if you saw NWT on Wednesday night they did another one of those profile's of a reporter doing a particular area, last night I couldn't remember who the reporter was, but it was the Isle of Man, the BBC said they have no hub on the Island, the special correspondent for the IOM is based in Manchester and she would have to fly out to film a report and most likely fly back to send it to the BBC, though they're experimenting with new technology.

As for Granada, well this is a wild guess, I don't think Granada has a Newsroom on the Island, but I think there's a better chance that Border might have something there (both Granada and Border claim the IOM is in their respective broadcasting areas) and that Granada would be using a resource at Border.

It was also mentioned that a Video Journalist will soon be based on the IoM.

Markwigin asks an interesting question - and as I've now created some real intrigue I wouldn't want to disappoint him with the truth Cool . I've got a theory about TV addict. Since the X-files wrapped I was wondering what happened to the out-of-work "Lone Gunmen". Well, one of them's still alive, well and indulging in pointless conspiracy theorums. Wink
QPSK and onebefore should be congratulated in trying to wrestle back this forum.
