The NEW Central West and BBC Midlands thread

*Sets as wallpaper*

This is possibly the greatest event ever to occur in broadcasting history.

I shall now go out and buy knitwear based on hers and then stare into people's windows before totally overreacting when asked to move.

Excellent!! I love that. Could you please tell me which Bulletin that was from? It looks dark outside...

Who did the Breakfast bulletin just before 8.30 this morning? I turned on and am sure I saw someone different but then at 8.55 it was Kay with just weather and travel.

it was the 10.40 bulletin last night

ooh well a fab final show on both central and bbc mids ...

as a special christmas present to you all - here is the OFFICIAL central west and bbc midlands thread review of the year. its like the whole thread in 2minutes. vaiguely in chronological order.

TV FORUM MIDLANDS REVIEW OF THE YEAR 2004

http://www.rp-networkservices.com/tvforum/uploads/reviewtitle_copy1.jpg

has this yearly thread review been approved by bartstope? I shall refuse to watch it if it has not been.

im sure barstope would approve and rate it "fab"

Ah well that's OK then.

I shall also rate it fab *HOWEVER*. I am most upset at the random knitwear woman section not including her funny walk at the end.

I expect massive internal review leading to huge job cuts and the relocation of large parts of Birmingham to Manchester after this outrage.

i have to say ashley was wearing a TRAGIC outfit tonight on the 23:10. a black jacket and tie with a brown shirt. what was he thinking. he looked like he had been dressed in one of those christmas time soup kitchens which get donated all the stuff that primark couldn't off load onto tk maxx. i'm sorry, but i do not want my regional news delivered to me by someone who looks like he should be sat on a park bench with a bottle of white lightening.

i am going to tell raymond snoddy about this.

Someone stubs a toe at the Mailbox, and it makes international news...

ABC News Australia - "BBC Staff shown the door"

ROFL well they are the most awkward doors i have ever seen. swiping a pass, then getting into the compartment, and then shuffling your feet because it goes so slowly is quite difficult. why cant they just have normal doors
