Telling it as it is!

Foot and Mouth the Revenge!

It's back and it's in Wales (and I don't mean Big Brother 2's Helen)! Foot and Mouth made headlines again as mid-Wales marked 4000 sheep for slaughter.

Come on you knew that it would happen after the election was safely out of the way! Reports can be silenced during times when it is not in the best interests of the Government to reveal the real extent of the epidemic.

The real question now is How long will this go on and when will our nations Countryside be free of this disease?

Where did Archer's charity money go?

The big question at the moment seems to be what ever did happen to the £57 million that Lord Jeffrey Archer allegedly raised for the Kurds of Iraq as the Kurds are certain that they never got it!

Did Lord Archer make up the figure to show what a great Humanitarian he is? or did he embezzle the lot as he is now known as a liar and thief?

I personally thin that it is 50% of one and 50% of the other and hope that when it is investigated that Archer spends even more time in prison.

Brian wins Big Bro. 2

As predicted weeks ago Brian walked out of the Big Bro. house as the victor, leagues a head of his nearest rival, Helen.

Considering the rest of the house seemed to have it in the Helen and Paul for some time (they were nominated more times than any of the others in the house) it was nice to see Helen emerge as the runner up. I wish Helen and Brian all the luck for the future as they both seem to have great personalities and deserved to be the last two in the house.

The series finale was funny in the sense that the others (with the exception of Paul, Elizabeth and Dean) seemed to be so far up their own egos that it was amazing they were able to fit into the house.

Bubble should learn to shut his mouth or have his tongue cut off! Narrinder's way to mouthy and with any luck her fifteen minutes of fame ends here. As for Josh, does anyone love themselves more than he loves himself? His ideal boyfriend would be a clone of himself!

The only question that remains is What will we all do with ourselves without the 18 hours a day of Big Bro. on E4. Strangely sad yet addictive viewing!

Maybe all of the shows viewers can try and get a life rather than living through others!

WWF INVASION

The WWF have managed the impossible! They have been able to turn what could have been the single greatest event in the history of 'Sports Entertainment' into the biggest yawn-fest of the year!

Now if you were to go back a year ago and pitted Ted Turner's WCW against Paul Hayman's ECW and Vince McMahon's WWF then you would have one major wrestling event featuring some of the all time greatest wrestlers as well as some of the best up and coming talent.

What could be better than D-Generation X Vs the NWO or Hulk Hogan Vs Stone Cold! But now that WWF Entertainment own all three companies and have streamlined them, the new talent and remaining old talent are really not that good.

Add to this the fact that Vince McMahon can not sell his new repackaged products (ECW and WCW) to any prospective TV stations made WWF Invasions more of a 'hard sell' of WCW and ECW.

This made for some pretty boring and predictable TV, even the 'Bra and Panties' match between WWF and WCW babes was unusually boring.

As for Stone Cold defecting to WCW didn't see that coming....NOT! Come on WCW need a big star and he fits the bill especially with the Rock coming back after finishing his movie commitments (The Scorpion King, the prequel to the Mummy).

Come on Vince do us all a favor and hire some new writers or WCW/ECW will not be the only wrestling companies without a station.
