b'Don told me, " I watched Benidorm this week to see if there was any improvement\\u2026absolute rubbish\\u2026badly written with a collection of mismatched characters who can\\u2019t act\\u2026with a string of unfunny jokes and a helping of bad taste\\u2026plus an appearance by Mathew Kelly to add to the trash\\u2026.ITV have hit rock bottom with this one.\\n\\nThe BBC are a bit worried about their viewers using modern technology to watch their programmes on I Player\\u2026because apparently the licence fee only applies to LIVE tele\\u2026.so when you watch recorded stuff you may not need a licence\\u2026.I\\u2019ve always said the Beeb want sorting out\\u2026they have just abandoned a set up which was to involve a \\u201cdigital storer\\u201d designed to store thousands of programmes\\u2026it failed\\u2026it cost 20 million quid\\u2026which has now gone down the drain\\u2026nice to know where our licence fee goes.\\n \\n.I watched the Paul and Ringo get together on the Grammy Awards\\u2026I must say they both looked good\\u2026I\\u2019m going to invest in whatever make-up they were using\\u2026.I thought Katy Perry was quality as she was burnt at the stake\\u2026and Pink who was hanging from a rope around her ankles and spinning round\\u2026makes me glad I\\u2019ve semi retired if that\\u2019s what you\\u2019ve gotta do to get a gig these days.\\n \\nThere\\u2019s quite a lot on the tele about the Great War with it being the anniversary\\u2026the diaries were fascinating showing that there was a lot more to it all than \\u201cgoing over the top\\u201d\\u2026all this should be shown as it should never be forgotten\\u2026whether we will ever learn is another matter.\\n \\nCoach Trip is back with good old Brendan camping it up\\u2026I must say I love this programme\\u2026especially the last bit when they have to vote someone off\\u2026.also there is another good programme with Griff Rhys Jones travelling around Wales..this week was Anglesey\\u2026brilliant. \\n \\nThe latest is to make smoking in cars where there are children illegal\\u2026.what next?....in my opinion people who smoke anywhere should be issued with a goldfish bowl to be worn over their head so they can recycle their own smoke\\u2026but then again I don\\u2019t endulge\\u2026..but the people who come up with these ideas should be employed to enforce them instead of giving the police more work."\\n\\n....and we looked at other news headlines that are taking the eye.....'
