Only problem is this episode will probably lift their profile in the public eye...... get rid of them!! Used to think Russell Brand was quite funny t times but he has gone overboard now and as for Jonathan Ross, Ive never been able to stand his smug face!! |

Some people seem to think that when they become celebrities they are able to behave in ways that would normally be totally inappropriate. |

A couple of weeks back on the national news they were saying that thousands of pensioners would die from the cold this winter...not that they might die, it was said as though we should just expect it, as this happens every winter. This makes my blood boil when we're talking about two people like Ross and Brand and the obscene amount of money they earn. |

Kay???? | Report | 29 Oct 2008 12:59 |
There is a vast difference between the odd swear on TV/less on Radio,not a problem with me, its part of everyday life,,,,,,,,but those remarks were left on a voice mail.,to an innocent party,,,,,then aired before the whole nation, two days later,,,,,,that is where a fine line has been crossed, it wasnt the call it was the content,,**now reveal by the grandaughter as true facts**,but why reveal it to the grandfather in such a crude way,what happened was the grandaughter private life and therefore enlightened the whole nation to what she may have wanted to be kept ------private,, |

Yes this is far too personal to go unheeded - the way our world is today people do take offence far too easily but these two have over-stepped the mark regardless who they are they must be punished and like I said before more heads should be rollin also |

I agree with Kay, they crossed the line with this, and should not expect mercy, after all, they showed no mercy to their victims. |

I think when we are put to it - if this was a member of our family we would be outraged they have crossed the line but sadly this will give them more attention from the media and more prospects of work - the poor girl involve -I can't even think what I'd do if it was one of mine !!!! |

I have been thinking about Mary Whitehouse.............now I know she was seen as an interfering busybody by many, but someone like her should be around again maybe?? |

If I see a film credit and it says there is lots of swearing and violence, I am quite likely not to watch it, so why don't film directors take this into acount when ther're making the films because I don't think I'm in the minority over this, I for one will never watch RB or JR again, out of choice. |

you are most certainly not in the minority Barbara, there are few who wouldn't agree with you - enough is enough, where will it all end - you hear five year old children using four letter words in the street |

I think there is something in the "Wireless Telegraphy Act" which would make what they did an offence in law.Not sure but I vaguely remember it.No doubt somebody on here will know more.**M**. |

I think this was absolutely obscene. I am pretty sure that if a teenager did this to an elderly person everyone would want something done about it. |

The number of people who listened to the original recording is irrelevant. |
