wilsonch Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Yet again another story that 'offends' some people who didn’t actually see the programme This is a light hearted fun programme and from several past programmes we know that this is their sense of humour and if you don’t like it DONT WATCH IT...
