		<description>I should also point out that whilst employed (Volunteered) as a radio DJ for Huddersfield University&#039;s Melt Fm, I once chatted with my co host, Pete Mella about the David Bowie Song, Changes.

I argued that during the chorus of said song Bowie sings 4 rounds of Ch&#039;s (ch-Ch-Ch-Ch Changes) before changes.  Pete argued that it was only 2 rounds of Ch&#039;s (Ch-Ch Changes) before the word changes.  We discussed the issue for probably 20 minutes before someone called in and said that we were both right.  The first line of the chorus is indeed
Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch Changes
and the second line is
Ch-Ch Changes

Which crime is the greater?  The one where some famous people stepped over the line a little, or the one where two volunteers on a tax payer funded radio station whittered on about nothing in particular for a good 20 minutes?  Where is my punishment for the crime of wasted air space?  Where is my call from David Bowie saying how dare you mess up the line to such an iconic song?

Once again Britain is showing its true colours.  It&#039;s one rule for paid celebrities on the nations largest radio network making ill advised comments about a semi famous actors granddaughter, it&#039;s another for two probably drunk students, struggling to fill time on a community based radio station that probably no one listened to.

I should put my foot through the screen of my computer, and send myself the bill!</description>

		<description>Morti&#039;s got a point - it would be BETTER with Jo Brand, at least she&#039;s funny.  As for Howard Stern, he&#039;s brilliant - offensive, but brilliant.  At least his offence is for a point, not just giggling schoolboy, pathetic name-calling type offence.  To get on the Beeb, you should have SOMETHING between the ears.  Wossy has but not Wussel Bwand!</description>

		<description>My nan told me all about this, but as I had no idea who russell brand was, all this was a bit lost on me.  I thought it might have been Jo Brand&#039;s son.  They both have the same hair anyway.

Wow, what a nothing story.  These people should listen to Howard Stern.  The put their foot through their radio, and send him the bill!</description>

		<description>Someone pinch me please and hopefully Ill wake up. If its not press the pillow over my face and don’t stop till I stop till you hear the sweet sound of my death rattle.

  If we bow down to this middle England brigade we will end up with endless repeats of last of the summer wine and strictly come dancing.
Personally speaking I love Brand And Ross and the things they produce. If Ross&#039;s show on Radio 2 gets replaced by Dick and Dom or Jamie Theakston I may invest in a shotgun and to irreversible damage to my cranium. 
It was a silly thing that got out of control. An apology would have been enough. This was a Pre- recorded show, lets not forget that should not really have been allowed to be broadcast if it were deemed that people would have been offended.  How then was  it was available as a podcast on the Tuesday!

  If you dance with the Devil you going to get your fingers burned Georgina.
Unfortunately on this occasion Russell chose to &#039;dance&#039; with a slut of Satan himself. That can only backfire. To be fair it was probably time for him to move on to bigger things. I respect him for resigning, not giving the halfwits at the BBC chance to sack him.

I despair though! What will we be left with??

And yeah, who gives a fuck what Gordon Brown Thinks??!!

Go back to trying to sort out the shit storm that&#039;s the British economy!! When we want your opinion we will ask for it. Or just ask the Daily Mail to make it up.</description>

		<description>Well no it&#039;s not - because it&#039;s doing massive damage to the BBC, which people like the Daily Mail are loving.</description>

		<description>You&#039;re right, it is a farce and a total waste of time.

But,

Russel Brand and Wossy are both tossers of epic proportions, so seeing them get a bashing is great</description>

		<description>What made me laugh is that it was pre-recorded so surly its all the fault of the bbc for airing it.

I&#039;m sure all the news will be back to the rescission soon enough. 

rescission, brand, rescission, ross, rescission

		<description>It&#039;s nothing short of a fucking disgrace and even Brown weighed in with comments...WTF?

People are dying, starving, fighting, killing, living in poverty and all we can go on about is two no-mark DJs with bad hair.

Fuck the lot of them.</description>
