there's anger right there fella, take it easy - and I doubt I would register as thick should it come to a contest, no offence - but thanks for the guidance. I guess as a professional journalist of 35 years' standing, I need you... a plumber, baker, call centre operative/whatever? to tell me how the media works. Thanks but I'll make up my own mind - and that doesn't mean being swayed by Clarkson's invective or the Markles' unilateral belly-aching. Both are making more money than you and I nailed together (and then some) and they wouldn't give a flying fuck about any one on this forum.
