BBC are getting their money's worth out of me
January 2014 I filmed an article for BBC Fake Britain regarding "Fake" bike kit. (It is not fake just cheap but BBC don't like that idea :roll: )
It first aired around June 2014. Since then it has been shown about 6 times on BBC 1
Guess what? At 11.45 this morning it is being shown yet again
Had I known it was going to be shown so often I would have negotiated some repeat fees
Erm, is that possible when I did not get paid in the first place?
Anyway, if you are near a TV and want a laugh ...................................... I still refuse to watch it.

It is better to arrive 30 seconds late in this world than 30 years early in the next

LOL, I think you forgot to shave that morning Tony. (An observation, not a criticism, as I tend to allow my personal effectiveness slide if viable).
You really should watch it though, there's an article straight after it about how to make a lot of money very easily by posing as a Solicitor.

Well, the perpetrator who was discussed got away with the £700k, and apparently has not been identified. So I guess anyone could be a potential suspect.?D6 wrote:Was that kwacky?
However I'm not as "brave" as you D6 , because slander can often be denied but Libel is another moneyspinner used by Solicitors to supplement the meagre remuneration they receive from their selfless calling.

I thought I was just stating the facts.?
Sorry Kwacky, I assure you that I intended no disrespect by describing you as a solicitor.

The legal profession is a much underrated & unappreciated field of endeavor.
