Lamb to the Slaughter

I know I'm preaching to the converted here but when is someone going to put us out of our misery ad kill this man:

What an utter waste of space he is.

He really must be stopped
What an ignorant moron.
He belongs on Big Brother not 6Music
Isn't that a bit harsh?
"Lola" was a really good song.
Here's the audio
Odd that the NME are currently reporting that this interview happened today when it took place three weeks ago.
What an oaf.
The man needs a radio 1 slot now.
He is an absolute legend
He is a personality, a gem, a broadcaster who is not scared to take a risk.
He's a character.
He is more important than any of his guests because his Personality. He has achieved things that his guests couldn't even dream of.
He doesn't need a posse to make him sound funny, he's that good.
More importantly though, he took over from Dermot O'Dreary on Big Brother, so he's being groomed to be on everything, soon.
He's a lot of a tosser.
the links broken
I hate him too who ever he is let's get him and that we give him cow bites and the bumps and throw his shoes onto the railway oh you didn't go to our school *gets blazer and wanders off*
Is he related to that twat
Zane Lowe? Just who are the people that employ these idiots, they are the ones that should be slaughtered!
Maybe that is a good idea for a Word backstage podcast - I mean get Mr Hepworth to interview the people responsible for employing these buffoons with no musical knowledge or interest in the slightest - and just ask "WHY???"
Zane Lowe
has a presentation style which irks many. However, there is some considerable depth to the man. He has both significant interest & knowledge of music and more importantly he's not in a neutered daytime slot ala Whiley.
Yep
His enthusiasm has always struck me as genuine, and he does know his stuff. Plus, he used to be in a hip hop outfit called Urban Disturbance, who were actually pretty good. Although he went by the name Zhayne in those days, which isn't so clever.
Plus,
his 2005 album with Breaks Co-Op (The Sound Inside) has some great tracks on it. "Settle Down" (not one of my particular favourites) even featured on a "Now Hear This" CD
More irritating than Lamb
are those sniggering twerps in the studio with him. They remind me of the school bully's entourage. After he's put someone down they follow up with a few sly kicks.
bang ,bang
Ray Davis cannot be stopped with a bullet , this tosser could be halted by blotting paper spat through a straw ( it appears to be his humour level ) .
He wears a huge comedy bow tie on Big Brother...
... that is all.
Can I direct you all to some very fine mockery of the delightful Mr Lamb as broadcast on the Jon Holmes show on 6music on Saturday? It takes place at about 48 minutes in...

Feedback
Presumably the BBC take a lot more interest in the opinions of Radio 4's Feedback listeners. They managed to find one listener (in two weeks) who was willing to back Lamb in these circumstances, and many others who didn't. No doubt you can catch up on iPlayer if you wish...
Obligatory George Lamb joke
Q: Why does George Lamb wear a bow tie?
A: So deaf people know he's a **** too.
There really is no start to his talents. For some reason he thinks it's radical to do sub Steve Wright In The Afternoon circa the early nineties funny noises and have a 'posse'. Which wouldn't be so bad if the office radio hadn't been tuned to 6music a couple of years ago at my suggestion, a decision which I now find it difficult to defend.
I thought Ray showed plenty of humour
in his evading the inane questions. For Lamb to then play Waterloo Sunset after and talk over it with insults to one of the best and most gracious of the world's songwriters makes me really really sad. i don't want to sound pompous but this berk should be hauled over the coals for this. Surely a lot of the good guys at the Beeb must be deeply embarrassed. It's beneath contempt. Thankfully Ray probably won't give a toss. Lamb, though, should get the boot.
It's all for the ladies, apparently...
6Music employed Lamb to attract more female listeners, which, as a woman, I find frankly offensive! the man is an idiot (and a bully, judging by the way he acted towards Ray Davies).

he's a turn-off, in all senses...
Lesley Douglas
Good of her to explain what I listen to music for. There was me thinking it was because I liked the sound.
I know!
It's incredibly patronising.
If you're angry about the Ray Davies interview......
.... don't forget to sign the petition

and complain to the BBC:

and write to Feedback:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/factual/feedback.shtml
None of these will take you more than a few minutes, and if the pressure is kept up, you never know, 6music might be allowed to revert back to the rather special thing it was before Lesley Douglas began f***ing it up right proper.
