Let’s talk about BBC

If David Icke ends up doing MOTD, it will only be because he never heard the news, being on another planet at the time.

Yep. They founded and ran a really nasty very right wing pressure group:

Obviously BBC quite happy for them to also appear in Record Breakers.

It's like an episode of QI when tool's in.

Anyway, moving on, Sue Cook has pulled out

Chappers, Micah Richards and Jermaine Jenas all out as well, apparently.

I overestimated your subtlety and thought they might have presented MOTD in its early days.

I loved their books.

Forget which one without googling but i remember the Provo's shooting him dead !
Feck can I have no happy childhood memories.

That was Ross. He was assassinated by the IRA in 1975 by 2 Provo's who became known as the Balcombe St gang after the siege in which they were apprehended. McWhirter was targeted for offering a reward for their capture. They were in prison for 24 years until GFA in '99.

Bonus point if you can tell me who, in 1987, handed a petition to then-prime minister , Thatcher, demanding better visiting conditions for the murderer along with "the immediate transfer of Irish political prisoners to prisons near their homes"

He's pulled out of MOTD as well, mirrors at the wrong angles.
