dont we all?

 

[spandit]

He generally eats them alive...

 

[santaman2000]

Is he part Klingon?

 

[Countryman]

My kids love him and I love him for that at least. Because of his shows my kids want to go outdoors and have an adventure. In many ways he is to the outdoors what Steve Irwin was to conservation.

I think his appointment as Chief Scout was excellent. Scouting grew this year again.

Apart from the orange colouring some of the Gerber kit he endorses is excellent. Not so sure I would wear the BG Craghoppers line but if buying my kids a fleece makes them want to stop playing video games and encounter nature then where do I pay?

We like to knock our celebs in this country.

either of those two blokes have a TV program?

Both of them have been on the TV numerous times and as memory serves me have conducted themselves in a far more down to earth and practical manner than that bear chap.

Short list of things I won't watch on the TV because I regard them as overly dramatised poor quality TV output.

Eastenders.
Coronation St.
Celebrity chef shows.
Axmen.
Iceroad Truckers.
X Factor
Bear Grylls.

Now for the people who like his stuff? Don't go asking for opinions if think you have to argue with the answer.

 

[John Fenna]

My list is
Soaps - any of them
"Reality" shows
"Talent" shows
Bear Grylls
I do not have much time to watch TV so avoid the dross.

Interesting.........have you googled yourself ?

Interesting.........have you googled yourself ?

Not recently.

Is there some point you are making?

 

[Robbi]

Yes there is.

Don't believe everything you read.

 

[Wayland]

I'm not going to argue about this, the facts are freely availably from many sources.

I chose the Wiki page as a reasonably balanced report but there are many more reputable references to the "Cash for Questions" affair.

Perhaps you would prefer to check Hansard?

You're right Gary, but back to BG and Wiki.

You do know that Wiki can have it's entrys updated by anyone don't you ?

 

[Blaidd]

I dont have any reason to dispute the Wiki page but I would trust Hansard more. People will be quoting tabloid newspapers next. Oops, too late.

Yes I do. My mother didn't raise any stupid children.

But getting back to the point, you asked me to explain my comment which I have done.

Why am I reminded of this conversation between Blackadder and Baldrick:

"Oh, come on, Baldrick, you're going to be an MP, for God's sake! I'll just put fraud and sexual deviancy. Now; minimum bribe level...

"One turnip. Oh, hang on, I don't want to price myself out of the market."

Calm down folks its only TV entertainment. He's achieved more than 99.99% of the members here have or will do in terms of outdoor stuff so I honestly believe there is a lot of the green eye envy going on here (subconsciously perhaps). He does have skills, he does make TV shows and if you don't like his shows/ethics then just stop bloody moaning and don't watch them...thats not rocket science now is it FCO.

To be honest all the armchair bushcrafters (of which I'm pretty much one these days) moaning and groaning does my flipping head in at times.

That said we've moved into our new home and life is good
