    Does anyone else remember her?

    About two or three years ago, for a few weeks they had this girl doing the graveyard shift on sky news, Indian appearance/name, quite pretty iirc, but unfortunately just couldnt cut it as a newsreader. After a few weeks of constantly fluffing her lines, stalling her talk and generally showing severe nerves they seemed to get rid of her. Yid be watchin feelin really sorry for her tbh as she stumbled through the news and seemed to be praying her shift would end soon so she could get herself together

    Did she ever return elsewhere, or did her 4 years of journalism in uni really go down the pan due to nerves?

    Im not sure now , but a couple of months back they had an Indian newsreader again on the graveyard shift , made a few mistakes (definetly not up to Prime Time standards) but she was ok .

    I'd heard of that Shatner "Rocket Man" (or should I say, "I'm a rock....et.... man!" :D) thing before but never actually seen the video of it. Of course, I've already seen Stewie's interpretation of it before and it cracked me up in the past (even if some of the people I was watching it with at the time didn't know what I was laughing at and the meaning behind it and I had to explain to them it was a pisstake of the Shatner thing! :D ). But now, after having watched the Shatner video, all I can say is.......









    MERCIFUL JAYSUS! :eek:

    You've got to wonder what exactly was in that cigarette Bill was smoking, don't you? ;):D

    Yeah, some of the stuff on that site is hilarious. Check out the weatherman video. You got to feel sorry for the guy in some ways. At one point I thought he was going to start crying! :eek:

    Ye the weather man was good...

    I cant give you the exact link for obvious reasons...just hit Ctrl and F and type in "This should happen to every woman at least once", and play that file.
