BigDoddyKane Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 What was the name of that show Neil used to present with Dianne Abbott and Portillo on bbc 2 . Hard to beleive now but t was actually alright at times or maybe I just caught a few episodes that were ok.

It was also before he threw away his veneer of impartiality and all shred of credibility and backed the joke that is GBNews. Though he’s run like hell already, he’s associated now with the likes of Dan Wootton, Nigel Farage, and online arguments spurred by advertisers disassociating themselves from his brand of reactionary, click-baity shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 The BBC putting an end to This Week and his spots on Daily Politics is what made him put GBN together in some ill thought out attempt at revenge, imo.

I don't think that's Pamella Bordes, I think that was another liason. Did she (Bordes) not cut his ties in half and cut the crotch out of his trousers after they split up/fell out? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil apparently incensed about a photo which happens to show nothing more than him in a loose embrace with a random young woman. Why? If it was alleged prostitute Pamella Bordes, then you could understand his embarrassment, to a degree, but this is just a random woman, so why does it seemingly annoy him? Unless of course, Neil knows something about this young woman's occupation that we don't... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't matter who the woman was, it was him looking like a creepy old pervert in a vest with a brillo pad for hair that bothered him.

btb Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Poor Andrew Neil, his career has never recovered from the halcyon days of the early 70s when he covered St. Mirren games for the Paisley Daily Express! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Andrew is doing very nicely, thank you. The Spectator is going from strength to strength of which he is Chairman along with other business interests. He spends most of his time in the South of France and writes articles for newspapers and makes some guest appearances on TV. Yep, he’s doing very nicely. I think he must have covered the football under duress as he is not slow to voice his dislike of the sport. -6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
