    The refugee & migrant crisis

    http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-35849167 I wonder if anyone else is as disappointed as I am by the EU's squalid little "one-for-one" deal in the refugee/migrant crisis? No,I don't have any "magic bullet" solutions but I'd be interested to hear what other zoners think about the worst...

    Who would play you in a movie?

    I've just done the this latest bit of BBC nonsense quiz based on whether you are extrovert or introvert. It turns out that I would be played by Shia LaBeouf in a film. My immediate reaction to that was who the **** is he? Google has sorted that happily...

  17. Farewell to BBC3

    As it moves to Interweb only, how did you rate the "young adult" channel. It gave us Gavin & Stacey and the peerless Monkey Dust, but also such bilge as Snog, Marry, Avoid. So a loss or do you not care?
