Channel 4 self-delusional

Just listened to the head of Channel 4, Julian Bellamy on Simon Mayo's show.
What a smug, patronising, self-regarding arse he is; just like his chairman Luke Johnson.

of Big Brother. At once innovative, now dead in the water. At least they've had to sense to recognise that.
Apparently Noel's off
He's allegedly taking DOND to BBC or Sky - one down... ;o)
Some years back, Luke Johnson was running Belgo

To be honest that is the only time I have seen him in the "flesh" televisually speaking. The worst kind of arriviste nouveau riche.
I fear we will never again see the likes of David Plowright at Granada and Jeremy Isaacs at C4
Luke Johnson
is a bad egg. He is just a real life Larry the Liquidator.
Bad Egg!
Brilliant comment! A beautiful turn of phrase Salty if I may say so.
The English language is so beautifully rich - especially in pejorative description - so much said with just a pithy put down!
