It was quite close to start selling as well I recall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted March 1 VT Supporter Share Posted March 1 Dunno if it's true or a myth, but I've been told that 'zube' is a slang word for todger in Arabic. And the cough sweet company were damn close to marketing their product in the middle east with the slogan 'Go suck a Zube'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 The Brits is so bad. The audience all pissed and not paying any attention to the jokes from the presenters which all die a death. The sound and editing all awful. I feel genuinely awkward watching it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are you watching it? I genuinely don't get awards shows. I see why celebs go to get their gongs, but then being broadcast and getting millions of views for a series of dull speeches... Baffles me. It's like a tedious work event that millions of people are attending without being paid. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 There is an argument that all awards shows are pointless, but I think that has been amplified in the last few years. They just seem to be box ticking events now. Fearful of any backlash of not being inclusive enough. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 (edited) I imagine with shows like the golden globes or the oscar’s the audience are at least watching what’s going on, and it isn’t edited together by 12 year olds. The Brits seems to be hundreds of tables of industry people all pissed in their own little world. The real fans are pushed right to the outside of the arena so you hear these distance cheers and screams when something happens. Very weird, and very amateurish. I feel a bit sorry for the show presenters and award giver-outlets as they look like they are dieing on their feet.

Mark Albrighton Posted March 2 VT Supporter Share Posted March 2 Genuinely had no idea that the brits were on. I never watch them, but usually I’m at least aware that they’re on. Not seen any marketing whatsoever. I guess it’s once again an itv thing and I can’t think of anything they show I might consider watching. That’s been the case for years, but maybe it’s even more so now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s an interesting read (both there and the fall out in other threads), in a car crash kinda way. Shame, because it would be nice if there were more women around here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
