    Default Bring Back Deayton

    He's basically done what all the bloody politicians and half the BBC do anyway. He would at this point seem the best candidtae to pass comment on anyone elses actions / activities. Your private life should be your own ..... unless your on Have I Got News for You.

    Should he stay or go.

    If he should go then who should replace him ????

    he should stay, the tossers at the bbc wouldnt resign if the press looked into their shirt lifting coke sniffing affairs.

    whats worse is they want paul merton to take the chair, the series he went awol was the worst series ever, he's needed as one of the panel not the presenter, anyway as said above what the fcuk has his private life got to do with his ability to do his job?

    i cant believe how stupid the bbc are

    Deaton made that program and at the end of the day this sort of publicity will only spur a few jokes, nothing more

    The bbc will now see their stupidity as the ratings drop

    its not as if he raped a famous sweedish weathergirl

    Exactly. The show with Merton as the host just isnt going to be the same.

    Bah, it annoys me when people can get sacked for things they do in their private life. Who cares? All it does is show they are real people, and not super clean boring cardboard cutouts...

    This will be just the start of it now that the BBC can now be fined if they upset ppl (like the independent channels do).

    Deayton made that program what it is, any replacement will be just a shade.

    Who cares what he gets up to in his spare time, he has not let the viewers down as is quoted in some of the papers, the only one he has let down is his missus, snorting coke and shagging whores is not gonna effect his job and its not like he`s a kids TV presenter. give him a second chance.......Dodgy killerswimming pool loving Bum-Bandit Barrymore got more chances than anyone else......

    Ah-men! Leslie has been branded a rapist by the papers, has been saked and forced to leave his home, with as yet, no proof at all. How much front page space would be given if it was all incorrect? (Im not defending him, if he is guilty everyone should know. I am just against the whole idea of 'trail by media'. Now everybody knows whats happened, if he is every charged what are the chances of a fair trail?)

    Our media is taking over where the police shound, just like it has in the US... (And that to me is more worrying that a comical quiz show host that has done something deamed by society as bad, but legally fine.)

    the BBC have pulled Barrymore's book and will not be putting it into production. (yet)

    I also heard today that Johnny Vaughn may be lined up for Angus's position.. I think this is a grat idea.. Johnny will bring new audiences and revitalise HIGNFY.

    The Beeb were right to sack Mr Deayton, they had no other option. HIGNFY is all about poking fun at the scandal and wrong doings of celebs and politicians, how can it be presented by someone who is as bad as they are? Don't get me wrong, i'm a Deayton fan and his use of tarts and Charlie won't change that but he had to go.
