His exact words were 'didn't number 10 go ape at the suggestion?', uttered while asking Andrew Marr about the fire brigade dispute. I am in shock.

ha this reminds me of when Momus commented that The Sun had used the word "post-modern" (in relation to Engelbert Humperdinck's "dance" album, if memory serves) and that this was A MAJOR CULTURAL MOMENT

I refuse to get excited until a newsreader uses the phrase "go crazy apeshit".

I think that could be fitted into most news bulletins without anyone noticing anything wrong. (It is my favourite album title.)

can somebody edit said broadcast so Sissons winds up saying "didn't number 10 go postmodern at the suggestion?" thanks in advance
