Steve is full flow this morning ...

Charles I blood stained shirt, hanging, Newgate gaol, hanging, Tyburn tree, not enough blood on Charle's shirt, more hanging, heads on spikes at London bridge, dipping your hanky in the blood of beheaded prisoners ...

I swear if we still had public executions Steve would be straight at the front of the queue to watch (dipping his hanky in the blood obvs) 😁

Without a doubt.
At least he’s got with the programme now, a week or so back he announced it was Charles 11 who was executed 😧

This is a rather nasty tweet from James attempting to smear a doctor

Nasty or not, I also find this kind of tweet from JOB really irritating and immature. It's yet more bandwagon-jumping that James does on a regular basis - exactly like the JK Rowling thing. I hate this knee-jerk reaction: hearing a story, assuming you understand everything about it from a 3-second soundbite, demonising someone in a black and white way and reacting to it without taking a breath to understand any kind of complexity or nuance. James' whole schtick is turning people he doesn't agree with into some kind of pantomime villain and I know most of twitter operates like this but sometimes I really long for a bit of wisdom from people who've got some life experience behind them.

That doctor has written a really sensible piece in the Spectator this morning about that encounter with Sajid Javid. He's not a raving lunatic or a dangerous maniac or even an anti-vaxxer - just a doctor who doesn't think sacking 80,000 health and care workers is a sensible way forward.

That was exactly how James came a cropper with Frank Lampard. He thought he was safe in his media bubble but did not realise that he upset Frank's sister who happened to be listening.
It then went all wrong as Frank Lampard is both intelligent and too much of a public figure for James to deploy the fader button.

I'll agree with you about James and the loss of jobs but I can't agree with you about the Dr. I think he did a lot of damage with what he said.

Steve's been wittering on about the delights of pickled onions - he's off to buy some today. Added to his addiction to sprouts, I'm not surprised he slathers himself in cologne and burns scented candles in his flat! 😬

Haha, does he still buy creed aventus? I remember he used to talk about it a lot last year. I've tried some on myself (mate bought some, so had a couple of sprays of it) and wasn't exactly overwhelmed with how great it supposedly is. For a fragrance to be hyped up and priced at such a high price, i was expecting something absolutely mind blowing and different.

Steve’s a real fan of the very expensive and highly stylised range of fragrances and beauty products, Jo Malone being a particular favourite but he was even more impressed with Jo Loves, the single shop in Belgravia which Jo Malone opened after she sold her original brand off. Remember him telling us he drove over one Saturday morning, shop wasn’t open when he arrived, he waited until it did open and bought six of the largest candles as presents, said he’d never sniffed some of them before.

Have to admit I’ve never heard of Creed Aventus, had to look it up, I wondered whether it might be the name of a Kickboxing champion😳

It's the pseudonym of a person of whom the traits a lot of folk on here recognise from another place. A place that is completely separate from the world of Tattle Life. Hope this helps !

Edit: Sorry Redvers I didn't see the reply you posted just before this one for some reason. I wouldn't have spent 25 minutes perfecting the wording in this one otherwise.

Hi!
Read this a thousand times but it makes no sense.
Very confusing.
Thanks for the other answers, much appreciated.
Still not entirely sure what the actual answer is, but must be me being thick.

Feel a bit left out but I'll get over it!

Eddie having a field day with the latest scandal!

And the Carl Beech / Exaro news fiasco. That was insane. How anyone gives the man any credit after that is beyond me.

The last couple of guys I've said 'ooh you smell nice' to have both said it was Creed.

In Sainsbury's today they were selling off individual Walkers mince pies. I thought I'd try one as Steve reckons they are the best. I can't say I agree with him.

On his show today it was Jelly Babies with willies.

I noticed that Andi Peters was listening in this morning. I wonder what he thinks when Steve is mocking the celebs, as he's likely rubbing shoulders with some of them himself, right? Maybe not Gemma Collins, but gotta be some that Andi knows that Steve mocks.

Andi is a regular listener and often texts in. I think he lives in Twickenham.
 
This is interesting if true. Maajid will have a far bigger reach here than being on LBC would ever have gave him to be fair.




It's also interesting because Joe is being called out at the moment for this segment of an interview he conducted with an Australian reporter on his podcast.
