"I'd like to know why, at the age of 90, I've had to sign a piece of paper, in order to be on this show, to say I wasn't pregnant". What a great grumpy start by Trumpington!
The Baroness Trumpington died last week! Her son said 'she had a bloody good innings' - sort of sums it up really! Remarkable lady - didn't say that much but when she did...…………………..!!!
Ich suche einfach nur die Stellen ausm Abi und so far hab ich den Anfang gefunden, wann der Rest kommt, weiß ich nicht. Mal schauen, anscheinend haben die die unverständlichsten Szenen zusammengeschnitten…
Baroness Trumpington was such a delight here and with a great sense of humor. She reminds me of my own grandma whom I miss more than anything. I hope I’m like them both when I’m older...to be honest, loving and respectful to those who are deserving of such treatment, and to not give two shits about those who don’t.
If only we had a codebreaker from WWII... I didn't know the baroness (I'm American), so I read her Wikipedia page for an overview, and wow! She really was a WWII codebreaker, and a lot more. She had a very full and long life. It was a life of privilege, no doubt, but it also looks like a life of service.
Little Boy was dropped on Hiroshima, Fat Man was dropped on Nagasaki, the only two nuclear weapons ever used in a war. So far. The Baroness was fantastic. Pithy
Canada survived the banking crisis best because we did not change our rules to suit the yanks we kept the laws we got from Brittain if it ain't broke don't fix it
Trumpington had a singular wit. I'll bet she was just a hoot to chat with. I don't know much else about her but, as a military historian, I would have loved to hear some of her stories from Bletchley Park.
The Baroness' reaction to Boris doing the Mobot at 11:58 and her muttered “Oh, for God sakes...” at 26:40 had me laughing so hard I couldn’t breathe, lol. RIP Baroness...what a national treasure she was. Pure sass and old school grumpy, lol.
The House of Lords should be reformed properly, not abolished. Kier Stalin would chuck out the Lords in favour of some german-style senate. No thanks, we're not Germans.
If they actually make women sign a waiver that says they aren't pregnant in order to be on this show...to what chemicals are they exposing the people who appear on this show? Or are they worried that the pregnant woman will hold up the production with potty breaks? Lol Sitting at a desk is an ideal job requirement for a pregnant woman, isn't it?
I 100 pet cent agree with you,he definitely went to one of those places but I am totally confused as to what the fuck he's doing on the TV and wonder what fucking demographic his "comedy" appeals to. A complete fuckin toff which im pretty sure he had completely dialed down. If he was in banking or something where he belongs the only jokes would be the ones people would make behind his back. You can actually tell he's turned up the poshness for this show,he doest sound like this when hes on the sports show with Corden I even stopped watching that because he became a regular. He's comedy is so shit naturally BBC gave him a sitcom,I'm sure mummy and Daddy pulled some strings for him,although his kind are BBC's kinda people.
Whitehall's gags were all out of sync with the teams, everything that creepy bloke in the bright pink tie said was...creepy or boring-man, that 'Daddy' business. I've never seen an episode fall this flat. Hislop and Merton did their level part to keep it together, and the baroness was good for a life when she piped up. But this was truly uncomfortable viewing for me.
an illiterate and stupid comment. Whitehall's 'gags' are scripted and read off the autocue as many hosts have made reference too and at least use the name of the guests you ignoramus !
