It makes me cringe when he says it, I really thought the using the word' colour' had gone out of fashion.

We all have a colour, mine is a kind of salmony pink, to use it as a description for a large group of people just seems silly and a bit ignorant.
It annoys me too, but we just have to accept that Wright is an absolute slave to political correctness.

I bet he can't bear to watch '80s sitcoms like Only Fools and Horses and Just Good Friends, which referred to Pakistanis as "Pakis" and gays as "poofs".

Another variation of his cats-arse expression. He was PC-torn between condemning her or respecting her rights as a woman to assert herself. If he'd been a robot his head would've exploded at the contradictory conflict!
This has to be a contender for post of the week


Builders wolf whistling ? Ah yes, I remember those far off days

Men obviously shouldn't wolf-whistle women for the reason that they shouldn't assume women want it because many don't. However, there's no doubt some women like to be thought of as objects of desire in that way. It takes all sorts.

He just said there were two Jamies/Jaymis in the group so he changed to JJ, for Jockey Jamie, so why are they so surprised that he was a jockey?
It's almost as if they aren't paying attention.

You might get that impression! It's like they take interviewing tips from Alex wotsit off The One Show. Don't bother listening to the answer just crack on with the next question even if they've just covered it.

Maybe a builder whistled at wrighty and he didn't like it. Probably wearing one of his blousey shirts again.
Yvette's showing herself to be a loud-mouthed moron.
Plenty of women find nothing pleasant in being whistled at.
Enjoy it. You'll miss it when it stops.

I'm almost hitting my mid-40s and I've reached that point where you may as well be invisible.

I'm almost on the subject here anyway I was chatting to a young tv presenter about unwanted male attention which annoyed her. Now in my eyes she has stunning hair the colour of a Turner sunset and deep deep dark brown eyes you could drown in. If I was the lucky man who saw her jogging by I'd too say something complementary or whistle.

She couldn't see it that way and was upset by this man's laddish behaviour.

Maybe Wrighty could ask Paul about Gino D'acampo and his love of guitars

Why are they splitting guests but not extending the time? Seems pretty pointless getting someone on for 20 minutes at the end.

I hope they explain the headmaster's reasoning for why he claims unisex toilets are more hygienic.
At this point, that seems an odd way to frame your argument in favour of unisex toilets, so I'd like to hear why he is of that opinion.

eta. the Head is female, apologies. Must have heard head "master" when Matthew was saying head "teacher".

Having a boys, girls and gender neutral toilet is not going to help, Yvette.

Day 2 of the bake off debacle. Headline news all over the place. Two comedians throw a strop. Who cares. Rylan and jimmy carr can replace them.

Matthew Kelly gives me the creeps for some reason.

Hussein should have been on for the whole show.

Me too. Loved his quick story about being stopped at the airport - "what's your job then?" - "i'm training for space flight".

I can't share the enthusiasm for the Urban Spaceman guy. I'm sure he's lovely but I turn off mentally after someone has said "like" for the tenth time and won't pronounce their "t"s.

Why? Why feel the need to intrude on a person's day? If you saw a fella in the street wearing a pair of shoes you liked, would you whistle him too, or pass comment. It's not called 'unwanted male attention' for nothing - it's exactly that, for most women, 'unwanted' and insulting. The woman you were talking to is right, it is laddish behaviour and unacceptable.
