Re: Brand/ross 'prank'
The actions of Brand, Wossy and all the producers were out of line and were punished accordingly.

I like both Wossy and Brand. (Will I get lynched by the angry mob for saying that on here I wonder?) I hope Brand gets another radio show as I enjoyed his Radio 2 slot.

Not saying what they did was right or acceptable, just seems to have been blown out of all sensible proportion.
I thought it was just me that thought that..

There won't be many of you......there doesn't appear to be a lot of people on here agreeing with you on this one.

Fine by me, I don't get my knickers in a twist if folk don't agree, that's the whole point of a public forum !

The fact is Brand and Ross were wrong to bombard this innocent man with these obscene messages.

Anyone who thinks they were within their comedic right to do so, please feel free to post your granny/grandad/mum/dad's telephone number on Accy Web, and I'm sure some wag would love to have a 'joke' with your own loved one regarding your personal life.
my grandad is a member of accyweb thats close enough thanks lol

Seems that a lot more people than we would imagine were offended, according to the news the beeb has had 27,000 complaints.

I wonder how many of those complainers actually listened to the show and haven't just jumped on the bandwagon, after the excessive media coverage!
Definitely blown out of proportion, it is non news.

If you read through the last few posts you'll see he hasn't, well not until the resignation letter has been veryified in Darwen.
