Finger bang on the pulse

Lord Lucas: ... every single one of us in the course of our lives, at some time or another, has glorified terrorism. I cannot believe that when the noble Baroness and her colleague on the Front Bench were young they did not support some of the then terrorist movements which were fashionable. For myself, I supported Robin Hood and Hereward the Wake.

That cannot be a real face.

Here he is, being taken very seriously by an earnest young chap:

This came up when the noble Lord last made an appearance in this journal, but I still can't see that clip: my computer is too old (and my dial-up connection too shit) to watch it at home, while my computer at work is more than up to the job but our jittery IT department have set everything up so we can't download or watch ANYTHING.

However, I relish the possibility that the interview was conducted on a day when the flow of noble Lord's noble blood wasn't being restricted to his noble brain, so he was being quite sensible, while his interviewer was a bit of a Terry*. Is this how it pans out? Certainly the rest of the site doesn't reassure: "Thought Crime of the Day - Who really bombed London?" Oh God, I don't know; was it lizards? "AHA! You have strated to see thruog teh PROPAGANDA!" Etc.

If you email me (alfred AT oddbooks.co.uk) your address I'll happily stick it on a CD for you.

And eventually post it.

That's very kind, but I fully intend to have a new computer (and hopefully connection) by the end of the year. I just wanted to explain why I never seem to comment on this clip - which I am keen to see...

I got as far as "Lord Lucas of Crudwell and Dingwall" and then I giggled too much to watch the rest.

[webofevil.livejournal.com]

He doesn't use the "of Crudwell and Dingwall" bit much. He's just plain "Lord Lucas" for Hansard purposes. For some reason he seems to think it's a bit embarrassing.

What makes you say that (http://www.livejournal.com/users/webofevil/70392.html)?

[ex-cornfedpi814.livejournal.com]

Damn you and your trickery.

When all those Lords lost the right to sit in the house, did they have an end of the peer show?

It's ok, I'm booing myself.

[webofevil.livejournal.com]

Why boo? At the time that title was used for numerous news items, documentaries, books, T-shirts, theme park rides etc.

What about that ice age, ladies and gentlemen?

It's the grey hair, it's slowing my brain.

Re: Topical

[webofevil.livejournal.com]

Hair does that, you know. Best shave it all off for maximum performance.

Re: Topical

[ex-cornfedpi814.livejournal.com]

Done! Damn it's cold. Brain starting to slow further...

Evidence of poor decision making apparent....

Desire to participate in right wing mob violence heightened.....

Are you saying that Gail Porter now has to join Combat 18?

Re: Topical

[ex-cornfedpi814.livejournal.com]

Why yes, yes I am. That's the crazy world that we live in.

Re: Topical

[webofevil.livejournal.com]

I keenly await your letter on this subject to the Daily Mail.

Re: Topical

[ex-cornfedpi814.livejournal.com]

Dear Daily Mail,

All of your readers are bald.

Yours etc,

Dr Miles

Re: Topical

I will buy you a pint of your favourite ale if you send that letter.

Re: Topical

[ex-cornfedpi814.livejournal.com]

There you go.

Re: Topical

[webofevil.livejournal.com]

I meant to specify sending it to the Mail.

Re: Topical

[ex-cornfedpi814.livejournal.com]

Check your email.

Re: Topical

[webofevil.livejournal.com]

Excellent. I look forward to their consequent shock exposé on themselves. Mabe even a front page headline: "YOU ARE ALL BALD".

Re: Topical

[ex-cornfedpi814.livejournal.com]

I'm looking forward to my pint.

Re: Topical

[webofevil.livejournal.com]

Do you want me to see if I can get it delivered to you at work?

Re: Topical

[ex-cornfedpi814.livejournal.com]

Yes please. And some pork scratchings.

[chiller.livejournal.com]

Han and Luke. Need I say more?

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAH (ps) I love the fact that when the young chap starts interviewing him, a warning siren goes off behind him, whereupon he manages to insert the term "warning siren" seamlessly into his interview. Gawblessim.
