I assume that you include yourself in "Some people" - wasn't it you that started the thread on the East Dulwich Deli closing and suggesting what might move in instead ?

Pizza is just posh cheese on toast anyway. You can get it in Iceland for ?1 - what sort of imbicile would pay more than that for a pizza?


Probably the same sort of person who is obsessed with "restaurants" and other post-gentrification yuppie trappings.

The more yuppie trappings the better I say. Especially if it means glamorous people sunning themselves outside looking cool, eating/drinking whatever overpriced pizza replacement comes around. I love all that.

Oh for goodness sakes (I said something else in my head). I started the thread about the EDD because it's become iconic and is in a prime retail spot. Totally different to an old pizza shop. No one cares!

    • you're witnessing "Natural Selection" the core mechanism behind the theory of evolution which determines if organisms survive long enough to produce offspring
    • Maybe Angelina did see them, however how many people and drivers didn't?  Just takes one to cause life changing for both.  Wouldn't it be more sensible if cyclists realised lights and reflective gear is not just to help them see but to potentially save their lives by making them visible to all. 
    • I agree with this, I'm afraid.  I see it every day within the industry - a lot of it is to do with the fact that the people working in it are younger now and don't realise how much they're being subconsciously indoctrinated by certain forces (social media and group-think), so they're now pathologically incapable of objectivity. Also, they don't read books, pick up the phone to experts, or generally know how to research properly.  On a lot of documentaries I've worked on, I've been leant on hard to peddle narratives that are not only heavily biased, but often outright inaccurate, and I've fought back where I can. It's really depressing,  I'd like to think that, at the BBC, I'd be immune from these influences, and allowed to project a 360 view, but it's sadly  not the case. You'd also be surprised at how toothless the BBC can be when presented with something that's irrefutable but could, say, upset Murdoch or the DM...  Hands up, I'm guilty of platforming extreme right-wingers, misogynists, anti-abortionists, racists, anarchists, pro gun lobbyists, rape-apologists... you name it, I'm all for putting them in a programme. Even though I deplore what they stand for, it's important to me to have a counter-view, and they almost always hang themselves.  (Job done.)  It's funny that certain people are up in arms about Rockets posting 'misinformation' in the Traffic threads, but  seem OK with it in broadcast, as long as it aligns with their views. You have to ask yourselves, what is it that you really want? If it's an echo chamber then just watch Fox News or CNN, however you lean. But then what's the point of it all? I fear the ship's sailed, so I don't know why I bother. 
    • That’s right, we could see them passing us at the stops and then as we overtook them. There was one moped without lights doing about 30mph.    Stupid is one word, but when it puts pedestrians at risk, it’s a different word. We’ll be raising it and hopefully get some publicity about road safety awareness
