Salvo Montalbano Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 6 hours ago, BTFD said: The fact that the BBC's second-highest paid presenter is on the radio is bizarre in itself. She could be magic, but it's 2023 - the audience must be shrinking every year. There was a while when Swift and Sheeran they were inescapable, and the two Ed Sheeran songs I've heard were some of the worst hit singles al all time. I'll say nothing about how shit Taylor Swift is as there's a vicious group of Swifties on here who'll track us down and sing mediocre songs about how much we've hurt them. I think Radio 2, in particular the Breakfast Show, Ken Bruce when he was on, and the Drive Time show all get higher listening figures than most tv shows get viewing figures tbf. 7 or 8 million for the Breakfast Show and that's down slightly from previous years. Loads of folk in cars listening in, loads of shops and factories, building sites and the rest all have radio on all day. Agree about Sheeran but Taylor Swift has a few decent songs. And although while I wouldn't climb over her to get to you (no offence!), there's something quite odd about how she looks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Alli Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 I preferred the Twitter topic when it was fun and not a nonce witch hunt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I'm taking from this is that if enough of us contact the BBC with wild and lurid claims about Michael McIntrye, we can probably get the arsehole suspended for a while at least. Better off doing it to Kenny McIntyre. Might get Sportsound back to what it was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is the worst timing since I booked a flight for 12th September 2001.. (true story) Cant help but think that booking a flight for the day before would have far worse, if you were very specific. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She won't be the second highest paid though. This is a similar situation to the deid club. The list published is those employees on direct bbc contacts. There will be dozens like some mentioned (McIntyre etc) paid through other channels which for some reason they don't publish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zetterlund Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 With modern pop music like Swift and Sheeran, I get the impression when it's time to release a new single the producers just hit a few buttons to generate a song and ask them to come in to the studio for 2 hours to record a vocal track. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm no fan of either of their music but tbf to both of them they at least write their own music. And the shit Swift pulled to regain the rights to her music was fucking top tier trolling. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 This gets reshared every so often, just a brilliant clip. Really sums up how kind of low-key and weird a lot of British TV was in the 1990s but somehow it’s better than now. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye fair enough, I've no idea about individual artists but that type of pop music in general is all very formulaic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
