Hi Dumpieship

What an excellent piece of news reporting.   Makes you question what else the Beeb may get totally wrong !!

Yes, well spotted Dumpieship.

.....And as for the BBC's reporting of the event. Well, it leaves a lot to be desired and is probably a good indication of how most of the 'news' that we hear (from them and others) is completely misreported. Its only when it relates to a subject that we may know a little about that it becomes apparent how wide of the mark these people are. And the scarey thing is, when its a subject we know nothing about we may be led into taking every word of it at face value!

Makes you 'proud' to pay your licence fee when you see the 'quality' in return.  :-?
