More telly thoughts
Watched Autumnwatch with my Dad and my wife last night. Whilst they think he is a bit odd they don’t share my views on Bill Oddy. My wife thought, ‘He might be nice to children and just not like adults’, which was a little on the charitable side of credible to my mind. I have to admit that last night he didn’t come over all that grumpy but I was a bit shocked at the glee he took in the positively pornographic display of deer rutting on the Isle of Rum. Aparantly it is against common decency to show a human schlong in a state of arousal on television but a rampant and well endowed stag trying to hump several different female deer (what do they call them?) is perfectly acceptable! Watching this display with your dad doesn’t help I promise you.
Most dissapointing thing about Autumnwatch last night was that we didn’t get to see Simon King get his face bitten off by a wild boar. We were left with a shot of the Kingster face to face with a 30 stone boar. Tomorrow we will get to see the camera widen it’s angle to reveal he is actually 300 feet away and the effects of foreshortening were being used to con us the audience yet again – I guarantee it!

bambi rocks, however I have a deep mistrust of all other animals, sometimes I’m followed by squirrels, and once, one jumped out and scared me down an alley way.

I can vouch for Steve being chased by small furry animals, although at the time I thought it was one of his ex-girlfriends. Then again my eyesight isnt very good, it could well have been either! On a side note I am very aware that Bill Oddy could be a child offender, but obviously this is only a suspicion.
