The "irritation factor" with five

Live at 7, we tuned into five, surely they wouldn't let us down in reporting the news that really matters?


Shockingly, the elastic band snapped as the digital signal let us down (signals from Lichfield come just that bit further than Sutton Coldfield you see).


Forced with the decision of climbing on top of Melodi Heights to reposition the aerial, we opted to reconnect to analogue - thank goodness it's not 2012.

five news, presented by Scotland's finest Kirsty Young, teased us by making us wait until the end of the programme - all fifteen minutes of it!

Ruth 'she has a surname but sorry we didn't catch' it reported about the Terry cock up with Cyndi "I'm so over it" Almouzni saying; "I'm not blaming him for anything, I've already moved on, I've forgotten about this." Really?

Then cue UK winner Katrina Leskanich keen to cash her appearance fee with this quote; "The song has the irritation factor, which often works in Eurovision."

But where was Nicki French with her expert knowledge and comments?

Kirsty finished the show with, "What a song!"

What a song indeed!

Meanwhile back in Emmerdale.....
