In the creation of news business at least these guys create funny news

I bet if you were to put this on the BBC there are folk out there who would believe it though

I was told this episode would be ‘different’…

I thought boring, routine unexciting.

Boy! Was that brilliantly done! Laughed out loud at so many bits: Stu your cameo role was brief but smiletastic. 😀 The inclusion of Mike Pence was inspirational!

But guys..stick to the news and leave the singing to erm..someone else. ;D 😀

It is worrying that the gap between spoof news and the BBC is so narrow…and closing!

Looks like the US is cutting (illegal) Arms sales to the Saudis. The Saudi the highest Defence spending (pro rata) in the world. $69Billion (including internal) for 33Million people. The economy is tanking

The US the 2nd highest (pro rata) Defence Bill in the world. $611Billion. (328Million pop) Unaffordable. A third of all Defence spending total in the world.

Much improved from 2014 – the production values are far better than BBC Revolting Scotland.

I don’t usually comment here, the quality of Dateline 2018’s output however, has left me no choice.

It’s not just the news where you are, it’s the news where everyone is.

It is quite simply, (without any exaggeration whatsoever), the best thing on the internet.

That is all.
