Re SG's post-total agreement. I WILL NOT be going to see any American remake of The girl with the dragon tattoo (or the rest of the Millenium Trilogy). AND what made anyone think that an American remake of Nine Queens or the Office or Kath and Kim was a good idea????????????

[xoxoxoBruce]

What makes you think we'd allow you to see our remake.

[morethanpretty]

They're also making an American version of Top Gear...WTF? Pissed me off when I saw that. Apparently we Americans just can't stand a show that isn't in our accent. Make a Texan version and I might watch....

[xoxoxoBruce]

Rumor has it, the new version might be better.

I doubt that highly. This country is far too PC to improve on Clarkson's rants. (this cut doesn't have his great line on a call to roadside assistance "Yes, I am going to be eaten by dogs...and I am a pregnant woman and I am all on my own.")

Ex-squeeze me?
You have "serious" politicians who believe there are mice with human brains, and mothers who think their children will catch teh ghey if they see a 5 year old boy in a skirt!

Yes but Clarkson is being humorous whereas our crazy politicians are serious. Aye, there's the rub.

And I agree with UT, but would add EPIC fail.

First off the mothers woried about their children catching the ghey is a complete misrepresentation of the facts, they were concerned that the mother allowing her son to wear a dress would cause him to become queer, not their children.

You can't top our crazies?

Speaking in the Lords, 72-year-old James said the British government would receive an immediate £5bn and a total of £17bn by Christmas if Foundation X were 'contacted by someone equal to head of state status or someone with an international security rating equal to the top six people in the world'. 'There will be no interest charge and if the Government would like it as well, it will put up money for funding hospitals, schools and the building of Crossrail,' he said. 'These things can be done but a senior member of the Government has to accept the invitation to a phone call to the chairman of Foundation x.

British museums fear putting skulls on display because of protests
Human skulls or ancients mummies are being removed from British museums for fear of insulting minority religious groups, academics have warned.

Towering Jamie Knight, 20, has donated blood for three years without any problems since his grandmother received a life-saving transfusion.
But the 6ft 9ins man mountain was stunned when nurses turned him away from a clinic claiming they could not guarantee the beds would support his well-built frame. Jamie, who weighs around 25 stone, even offered to bring in own blow-up bed or lie on the FLOOR – but the blood nurses refused to budge. Jamie, who lives with girlfriend Jenny, 24, said: ”I called the helpline to see if there was a bigger bed anywhere in the country where I could go – but I was told there was nowhere they were aware of.

A Lancashire council which introduced gingerbread people to its primary school lunch menus is to rename them gingerbread men.

Sister Christine Frost told workers who tried to take away her neighbours' doormats and cut down their washing lines to tackle anti-social yobs instead. Tower Hamlets Homes, which is responsible for council housing in the east London borough, started implementing new health and safety measures this week. Its workers, accompanied by police, turned up at the Will Crooks Estate in Poplar to enforce the rules on Monday. They even impounded children's bicycles chained to railings and pulled down hanging pot plants, all in the name of health and safety.

They did an American Top Gear pilot two years ago with Adam Carolla, my man-crush, but it was not picked up because network executives appear to be all morons.

Mr. Carolla is our Jeremy Clarkson.

[Undertoad]

Apparently the US Top Gear will be on the History Channel and the comic Adam Ferrara will be the comedy host.

The History Channel airing it means that a third of the show will be discussions about historic cars. This is what they do with "Pawn Stars", have people bring in antique guns and art. My buddy who owns an actual pawn shop says that the entire show is bullshit.

I predict failure.

Good point, well made.

But although Clarkson is larger than life and I enjoy watching him, he is genuinely right-wing in his views - I can't read his columns/ books without a little bit of frothing.... And not in my pants.

He's too left-wing for here.....

I read yesterday that Shane Jacobson (a.k.a. Kenny) is the host of the Australian Top Gear. Much as I like Shane Jacobson, do we need an Australian Top Gear?

I surrender, Bruce.
We do crazy pretty well for a small island.

And we have a gutter press who don't let facts get in the way of a good story. Pretty much like I didn't with the Halloween story - ahem.

But you got more crazies because you got more room for them to run around in
