Guys,
Regardless of this topic, but is this site for real ??

A news site in English with English language like this ?
I am Dutch myself but I am willing to bet that the writer is as well.
My advise : get yourself an English course because the spell checker you are using only looks at whether words are misspelled: "Death sick" may be consisting of 2 correctly spelled words, but it is obviously a direct translation of "doodziek", which is how I feel after seeing all these errors in a semi-serious news site.

Regards,

Roul Kierkels, Gothenburg.

I just heard this on Five Live. Those TV execs would die for the viewing figures of 30 years ago. It's amazing that they axed 18m viewer shows like The Goodies years ago. What mismanagement. TV as popular mass market entertainment is ending.

I agree, the internet is pointless and useless and a waste of money.
That's why I'm ditching it and using the money for premium tv channels.
