And this one:

They are out to Scam for Every Dime BBC CT

That's a classic one!

I know, and I'm still waiting for a response

I would have thought you would prefer to watch paint dry? Oh, just remembered I still have some more painting to do...

*logging off*

Ooh yes - how could I have forgotten that one? Maybe there's a conspiracy to make us forget conspiracy threads?

Another sign of a conspiracy theory is Over Use Of Capitalisation To Make Your Point, OK?!?!?!?

That one really annoys me, I'd rather they just went ahead and SHOUTED!

Still waiting for it to appear on youtube

How about the one hinted at in the Mirror article, today? That Tish had to be voted out this week, because she starts Panto next week - and couldn't have been in the show and on stage at the same time...

That was covered in the one highlighted above. Personally I think the panto production company would be more than happy to put on the understudy a few times for the extra publicity of having an SCD semi-finalist / finalist.

Who was it that said:

"Never put down to conspiracy which can be more easily explained by Cock-up!


But the BBC never make cock-ups, do they, and their reputation as a bastion of trustworthiness and reliability is unchallengeable



.................or is it?

The BBC itself is a conspiracy.

The licence fee doesn't go toward paying for programmes (not if some of the costumes on SCD are to be believed! ).

I reckon they're really a front for some nefarious operation which is trying to fleece us of all our hard-earned money

(Eeeekk!!! I knew I'd been spending too much time in the 'they're out to scam us for every dime' threead!!!!)

Great thread

That's pure gold


Ahhh.... possibly one of my favourite threads of the series, it cheers me up reading that

Yeah, the vast national conspiracy, called the UK government.

Quick, tell people now, before they silence us!!!!!!!

No, no, no, please, no more on encouragement this one!

(Anyway he's still in bed because he can't tell the time!)

My sister's cousin-in-law works for someone who used to be married to someone who cuts the hair of a cleaner on Blue Peter. They SWEAR that the Gethin rumours are true. Apparently he is being 'groomed' to present a new Strictly Come Dancing spin-off show, the BBC have been planning it for nearly a year. They chose Gethin as the figurehead for the programme, and he's been getting extra acting, music and dancing lessons for MONTHS now in order to win. Apparently even the whole 'journey' was a fix, he pretended to be bad in order to woo the public with his miraculous transformation.

Swear to God, no word of a lie.

End of.

I know the cleaner's donkey, so I'll find out later if that's true.

I wont bother watching it again then...is anything as it seems these days?

I know...next thing you'll tell me is that Santa's not real but just some guy in a suit!

*la, la, la...not listening*

OMG...it's worse than I thought. Our beloved show is truely riddled with scandal! And for me to have been so naive as to have believed that it was merely a just-for-fun pro-celeb dance contest. What a fool I have been!

PS: thanks one and all for helping me to see the light!

I suppose he has to wear suit nowadays in case that red outfit may offend someone....

no, it really isn't! get this - apparently, Gethin ISN'T REALLY GOOD-LOOKING. It's just a trick of the cameras the BBC use.

What next...global domination!?

I guess so...and you gotta keep up with the times. I mean I'm no fashion expert but the red baby grow's a bit of a dated look nowadays, wouldn't you say!?

I had not noticed...I thought they were being judged on technical ability...an ugly filter for a camera....where do I get one?
