Year End Review!
MUST SUCK TV!
Okay this year's TV was pretty much as crap as it was last year with only a few exceptions!
The soaps pretty much sucked with Emmerdale going five times a week (I'm sorry but 1 night is too much) while the other big ones (Eastenders and Coronation Street) seem to be less concerned with realism and more concerned with out doing each other with bigger and more dramatic (if you can call it that ) story lines. Dream Team changed it's format to the American style one hour episode and subsequently lost the plot in a big way.

Morons of the Year!
If it was in the news this year it tended to be for the wrong reason so here are my Morons of the Year!
The British Government. For their crap handling of the fuel crisis and generally being as crap as the Tories
The Tory Party. For not sacking Billy Hague and finding a decent leader!
The Lottery Commission. For 'screwing' the Richard Branson!
Rail Track. For reacting only when it was too late!
Vauxhall. For screwing a nice town like Luton!
American George 'Dubya' Voters. His father was a crap President and Jr. looks like he'll be a dangerous crap President!
Panic Buyers. Not only did they panic over Petrol, but the panicked over everything else. Easiest way's to get people to buy more in the shops was to limit it to 2 items or less!
