Swearing: it’s not big and it’s not clever

Feb 25 2008 by Terry George, Huddersfield Daily Examiner

IF like me you watched last week’s Brit Awards on TV, it makes you wonder if the producers tell the presenters to spice it up during the show like Sharon Osborne tried to do by swearing at Vic Reeves.

Personally I thought it was inappropriate from the way the whole thing was going and it was unnecessary.

It was quite clear her mike had been left open as she commented on the Arctic Monkeys and the way they were dressed in flat caps..

I don’t think they did themselves any favours, acting too rock and roll. I reckon they’ll look back in years to come and cringe.

I was delighted Take That won two awards.

They seem to be so humble in everything they do, appreciating that they have been given a second chance.

Every one of them seemed so pleased with their awards, you can’t help but love them.

Most of the press are saying that Amy Winehouse put in the best performance but I disagree with the critics.

I wasn’t a fan of her rendition of Valerie and thought she was wobbly. She is great value for the media though, so outrageous and unpredictable.

Well done Macca on your lifetime achievement award, hope you read my column last week!
