If you would care to put in some paragraph breaks, people would be more inclined to read this, I imagine. It's a bit offputting at present, to me, anyway.

premierscfc · 08-01-2007, 18:49

It comes accross as bitchfest. He has not got the wit to carry it off. Grace Dent will not be losing any sleep.

That is how it's written on his site (except the censorship).

SPECKLEDUST · 08-01-2007, 18:51

sounds ok to me. It's an opinion.

Chisato Geeste · 08-01-2007, 18:52

More hot air from Richard. Perhaps Richard Branson should recruit him for his next balloon trip.

Zeb Atlas · 08-01-2007, 18:53

Where did you find this ahem, satirical masterpiece?

Although it might bring Welsh-lad here - one of my favourite posters here as he's a big Richard fan.

Muttley76 · 08-01-2007, 18:54

Richard was always pretty perceptive as a HM, so I think it's interesting to see his views on things. That bit about 'we're all ****ed and the entire universe as we know it is about to end' made me laugh!

08-01-2007, 18:55

He's saying what I've been saying from the start, this series is one long pilot show for a Goody family reality TV show.

His myspace http://www.myspace.com/vote4richard

solway · 08-01-2007, 18:56

Has he been watching, whoever wrote this tripe,

Dirk likes Shilpa not Cleo,

I would like to tranquilise Leo as would majority of veiwers, he needs putting to sleep not waking up,

I find watching the show helps you to comment on it

Susann · 08-01-2007, 18:57

Thanks Melting face, that was an interesting read

Not that well thought out or written by Richard, maybe he needs to stick to radio

But an interesting read all the same, and there are some good points in it

Not sure if you are allowed to copy and paste a full article because of copyright issues. If you can still edit, it might be best to quote some of Richards thoughts and link to the rest of the article

Not being a busybody just trying to be helpful

Its Richard Blog on his personal myspace page..

I'm not sure if the whole thing should really be posted here without his permission

I don't see why not, it's a blog on a public website owned by someone else. If it was lifted off his own site you may have a point but anything on myspace is fair game.

Melting Face · 08-01-2007, 19:01

Is it ok now i've only got it linked?

Virgil Tracy · 08-01-2007, 19:02

"Leo & Jermain need to be injected with Horse tranquilizers, something, anything to wake them out of their coma "

How do tranquilisers wake you up ??

I am not going to get in a debate about it, as I am not sure who is right or wrong. However I don't think it matters that it is on a MySpace or not and that doesn't make it fair game in my opinion. Whether you can read something openly on any forum or place on the internet, lifting a 'full' article and also without a link attached to it at the time, I believe is now against internet rules.

He needs to have a word with Pete.

That should be perfectly ok now. Though you could still have quoted some of the article as far as I know, just not the full script

Oh, okay, I didn't realise it was from a link and not something you typed yourself.

cobolt blue · 08-01-2007, 19:12

I wonder why Richard doesn't make himself known on these boards (maybe he already does?)
Still, I've read his blog on the myspace site and I really didn't find it that witty. Saying that, I didn't find him witty when he was in the Big Brother house.

Ach! That's what I was going to say.

I guess it would help if he could spell too. (since he describes himself as a writer)
