when she relaxes and enjoys herself, like doing the swimming at the Olympics, she is bearable
but when she does the ever-so-inclusive-determined-to-be-politically-correct-and-concerned act she makes me wanna vomit unfortunately the latter accounts for about 99% of her time on TV ffs she even pulled that act on QI for gawds sake, it was excrutiating |

She lives for those moments, imo - she thinks she's so much smarter than the rest of us that it's somehow her duty to educate us all, however condescending it all ends up becoming. That the 'National Treasure' brigade are still prepared to cheer from the side lines while they are being patronised to within an inch of their lives only goes to show how easily people will jump on any available bandwagon, imo... |

I look forward to the Oaks and Derby but now not so much. Next year I might fly over from Dublin as I did for about ten years to avoid the commentary.

She is on CH4 tonight, with the story of Emily Davison.
I dont think I will watch it, as I can hear myself saying. "Should have gone to SpecSavers" |

Why isn't the programme just called 'Secrets Of A Suffragete'? Does the Balding name literally put that many bums on seats?

@differentdrum -- it is now generally accepted by the muppetts who run broadcasting that the Great British public will only watch documentaries fronted by celebrities (various Dimblebys, Joanna Lumley and so on) rather than actual professors who know wtf they are talking about.
Probably this "stunt casting" has more to do with the way telly works these days. Most programmes are made by small production companies who pitch ideas to the various channels, and it is doubtless easier to get your idea commissioned (or at least considered) if it has an "established name" attached. The Balding name will also catch the attention of the various television reviewers and previewers for newspapers, magazines and web sites. So for all these reasons, the answer is yes (sort of). |

Suffragettes
surprise surprise  gallant women fighting for their rights against the evil oppressor MEN I still think she should never have been brought on Ch4 racing team.. even though she is not always on...she has destroyed the atmosphere for me Men are men, women are women, still the best system for me....Its as much as some of us can cope with.. still everybody makes their own choice |
|
By:
Ebulgery - I was wondering if one of the regulars on here would link the fact than Balding is gay, with the issues raised in a documentary about women's suffrage. I am surprised it is you, and even more surprised that you could be that stupid.
|
|
By:
Balding is GAY...?? Which one?
|
|
By:
I mean...to be fair...there were THREE of 'em around the dinner table...
|

The one presenting the programme as described by the original poster, Velazquez. Do try to keep up, I will not help again.

By:
That's "Velasquez", ya diddy!
Don't worry - I WILL help again... |

It is her feminism, I object to:
She claims to be advancing the cause of women, she wants to stand up for woman's rights.. Well against who exactly?.... well there is only one answer to that men. as a man I find offensive Being Gay.. homosexual to be exact Well she has sold this across the media.... and unfortunately AD keeps us informed on here it is something I tolerate, but I do want it shoved in my face.. The ridiculous legislation pushed through parliament has not helped and the atmosphere of Ch4 has changed, for the worse in my opinion It is not men who oppress women, it is nature, women have babies, men do the hunting and gathering it is genetics, I think we are stupid if we tamper with that |

youse guys ought to be ashamed poor lassie is making a case for what can only be seen as a just cause against a ridiculously out of touch patriarchy. A system which sent millions (of men btw) to their death in northern europe not 2 years later To quote roddy frame of aztec camera 'why should it take, the tears of a woman, to show how men are?' |

Ebulgery 21.31 - "It is not men who oppress women, it is nature, women have babies, men do the hunting and gathering it is genetics, I think we are stupid if we tamper with that"
Those thoughts must have been uppermost in the minds of parliament when they granted the vote to women over 30 who met the property ownership criteria. You are demonstrating that you really are that "stupid". |

If you haven't seen it just fast forward to the last 15 minutes. Rest of it is just filler with Balding looking aghast every few minutes as if she had just rediscovered the wheel. Hardly worth using Balding just for the few seconds of pointless chat round the breakfast table - yes Uncle Willie was about amusing as it got.
