As everyone knows, catching a puffin with a net, pulling its still-warm heart of of its body and eating it is one of the most erotic things a person can do. Just look at Gordon Ramsay. Not so long ago Gordon Ramsay ate a puffin's heart on his TV show The F Word just to show what a triumphant lord of sex he really is. But, would you believe it, 42 people found the sight of Gordon Ramsay chewing on the just-dead heart of a beloved seabird offensive enough to complain about. Fortunately, though, Ofcom has decided that Gordon Ramsay didn't break any rules and is free to film himself gorging on raw blood-splattered puffin organs as much as he likes. That's lucky for Gordon Ramsay, because it's easy food for him - every year millions of migrating puffins have found welcome shelter from bad weather within the deep crevices of his angry face.
It's been said that some people in this world are stupid. This is, of course, absolute nonsense. The majority of people in this world are stupid - hapless, witless mouth-breathers who drift gormlessly through their lives with all the intellectual vigour of a bag of Oven Chips. Bearing this in mind, however, it still boggles the mind as to the boundless depths of idiocy to which the truly moronic are capable of plunging. Like dialling the number of a TV character. And complaining when there's no answer.
British teatime is a sacred institution where everyone around the country stops what they're doing and eats a crumpet with their mother.
Teatime is a tradition to be protected. Specifically, it is a tradition to be protected from fuzzy-chopped ginger pensioners inviting men to grope at their breasts on TV like they're starring in some sort of horrendous paraphilic infantilism porno movie.
Readers, you aren't the only ones to be physically repulsed by the idea of that. Anne Robinson let some wine-tasting bloke grab her boobies on an episode of The Weakest Link recently, and 16 intrepid viewers phoned the BBC to complain. 16 doesn't sound like a lot, but it's thought that only 16 people got through the incident without going blind or mad or throwing themselves through the nearest window.
Warning: Sweeney Todd is a musical. That’s not breaking news we know, but there are some people out there that are picking themselves up off the floor following that revelation.
The Guardian reports that there were inadequate warnings that singing took place in Tim Burton’s latest edition. “It resembles a vintage Tim Burton movie, but nowhere does the trailer mention the fact that Sweeney Todd is a musical. In fact, it goes out of its way to conceal the fact that the movie is entirely sung, save for a few snippets of dialogue.”
