It still baffles me why he thinks women putting on makeup in public - ie: on trains - is 'filthy'. Lazy, perhaps, slovenly, but filthy? Nose-picking, nail clipping, digging wax out of ears, fair enough, but putting on a bit of mascara and lippie? So what?

Morning all.

I can't think why Steve relegates such women to being 'filthy'. His 'special' type of reasoning might see them as all chavs coming from filthy dirty council estates.

Ferrari discussing....you've guessed it...Islam or more specifically the moving of summer exam timetable to accomodate students fasting for Ramadan this year.

Shelagh Fogarty on Celebrity Mastermind next Saturday. Her specialist subject - Pope John Paul 11.

Did you catch JOB almost giving the game away as to how she got on when he spoke to her on Monday?

When I tuned in yesterday the first thing I heard was 'Muslims'. I quickly switched off. LBC leap on any controversial inflammatory topic and then obsess about it.

I wrote several weeks ago Shelagh had a silent wish to become a nun, I might not have been far wrong.

'No justifiable reason to dislike? Hmm not sure about that. Perhaps we should all think about it a little more before we post about individuals we do not agree with.

Didn't hear that. I imagine she'll do quite well, including the GK round, which is usually what lets celeb contestants down. Anybody with a good memory can mug up on a single subject but you need a bit more than that to cover a wider range of knowledge.

Nick F needs to sharpen up with some callers. One mumbling guy insisted the US had a total immigration ban for thirty years after the war. Rubbish. He also trotted out the line that "the white race is under attack" This also passed without a word from NF. Am all for freedom of speech but equally when a caller talks rubbish then the presenter has a duty to challenge their view.

I think NF was gently mocking him - you're right though, it could've been more strident.

Well TBF Nick did correct a couple of words the caller used incorrectly but IMO that was trivial and what gets me is that his fanciful points remained unchallenged.

Was that the chap who used 'seminary' when he meant 'seminal'?

Aye, that's the guy.

Everybody loves chips!
That lady was so funny and the best bit was she had no idea just how brilliant her comment was.

Or, the latest snippet that his wife no longer goes out for clothes shopping ? She buys everything for herself and children via mail order.......

I am getting confused with these different threads Should we not have one for Steve Allen ? He is the other, 'disliked' presenter, on here ??

I hasten to add....not by me Nor, is JO'B. As I have said....when he is good, he is very,very good etc, etc.



I agree. I used to commute for work from Crawley to Balham, always adding the 'final touches' to my makeup, on the train Whether, it was an improvement - who knows

However, I didn't roll out of bed at the last minute & board the train in an unwashed, slovenly state. It was sensible - not lazy - to complete my makeup at the end of a long journey.

I have never understand Steve's logic about this......perhaps, he has been elbowed in the ribs by a lady brandishing a mirror

Don't care what the difference between an eidedown and a duvet is but I would love someone to come on air and explain how to get a duvet into the cover without laying on the floor and having a five minute wrestling match! I can cook and clean and all manner of household chores but changing the beds fills me with dread.

Begin with duvet cover inside-out. Match (closed) corners of cover to duvet. Pull cover over duvet. Shake*. Done.
* rattle & roll optional!

Does this work with king size? Do you do it standing up or lying on the floor? Just read that back and it looks like a reject line from a Carry On film! Good to see you back CD and HNY

Thank you - HNY to you and all, BR. Standing up. It helps to be fairly tall with a good width of outstretched arms for a kingsize. Carry on!

What I found annoying is the 15 minutes seemed to be Tom Sawbrick doing a vox pop right up to the 7:15 ads, from memory Nick only gave a little introduction just after the 7am news and ads.

I seem to be enjoying Nick Ferrari's show less and less now, I want callers not on the spot reporters & so called 'experts' on the line. 🙄

Stand by for more Corbyn bashing...

Guide to LBC for beginners:

Example of confident leadership: David Cameron allows ministers to campaign for Brexit

Example of weak leadership: Corbyn allows Hillary Benn to speak in support of air strikes.

I hear from their news bulletins that LBC have now commissioned an opinion polling company to find out what scares Londoners most.

And the winner is............. Muslim terror attacks!

I don't know if i think they wanted to know this to confirm that their four or five hours a day Muslim based phone ins are having the desired effect, or if it was so they can base even more of their programming on the most frightening topic of the moment.

Either way, I'm pretty sure we'll be in for even more "We're not bashing Muslims but,,,,,," phone-ins in future.

LBC's James O'Brien used to explain exactly how it was done. I once kept the recording but have since lost it. I am sure if you rang Mystery Hour next week he would be pleased to explain it !

I am going to give the method CD suggested a go on Saturday, if that still defeats me then it is an email to JOB! May even have to consider hiring a maid for the bedding task ooh error missus
