If it was anyone else posting, I'd say you've had too much mulled wine

But of course you post like that 365 days a year


Oh do get over yourself! I agree with JAH, you do my head in with your constant bias praising of your precious ITV.

Christ no, he's doing what he did to ITV with local radio, stations like Power FM, Essex Fm & Invicta Fm are all going for one unified brand, yawn Rolling Eyes

what about mr grade?


What's Mr Grade up to you ask: I imagine he's sitting at desk, smoking fat cigars; wondering how many more people he can make redundant, while he rakes in multi-million pound bonuses. It's not as if ITV is short of cash or anything, especially beyond the listening posts of the M25.

Trebles all round...

Like you, 623058 [I hope that is how you spell your name], it is rather contradictory for Michael Grade to talk about ITV's past. He was on The Stanley Baxter Show this past Christmas Day, telling everyone how proud he was scheduling such a well-loved entertainment programme. What's stopping him nowadays doing such a thing?

With his strong family background in television, it would have been thought he, of all people, could turn around ITV's fortunes. That is not the case. No, he carries on Charles Allen's 'tradition' of destroying the moral values of ITV and its long heritage.
To be very tabloid-ish, Michael does not fit the Grade.
