Ms Baillie, 23, told the Sun the pair should "pay for what they've done with their jobs".

She said her grandfather was "really upset and says he wants the whole situation to end".

"What's funny about humiliating a lovely old man who has never harmed anyone in his life?" she added.

oh yeah the truth hurts dose it ?

Georgina yesterday admitted she was a past lover of lothario Brand, 33.

But she said he “betrayed” her by broadcasting the fact in the on-air call to her grandad.

She added: “Russell Brand has embarrassed me by making a private relationship very public in the cruellest way imaginable.

“We were lovers but I trusted him as a friend as well. He has betrayed me for a few cheap laughs and left my grandfather distraught.

:rolleyes:

Oh bollocks! I was looking forward to David Attenborough and Frank Skinner on Friday's show.

I'm not going to comment further on this ludicrous story, it isn't worthy of my attention. If only Gordon Brown were equally capable of putting his priorities in the right order...

i think that they should show fawlty towers in place of friday night with Jonathan Ross, so everyone can watch Sachs being humiliated some more the miserable sod.

I think this has now been totally blown out of proportion. The BBC shouldn't be listening to the fools who dictate how the corporation should be ran. Anyway, the suspension will only lead to them being reinstated and only giving their shows more publicity.

This is actually well out of proportion. I'm not a fan of Russell Brand but I wouldn't see this as a reason to complain about him.

I read the front page of The Sun earlier while waiting to pay for it (I am ashamed to have a friend with both a cash flow problem and a trashy newspaper problem - I also bought myself a Guardian). This must be great publicity for this guy's granddaughter.

Criticism of the BBC seems to be mounting since the incidents with phonelines and cheating in competitions, everyone wants to complain suddenly. Maybe some people were negligent in airing this but it's been blown massively out of all proportion and will cause paranoia and prevent interesting comedy being created in future.

Russell Brand has resigned from his Radio 2 programme

The clue's in that he resigned, rather than being sacked... :confused:

I'd call myself a fan of both Ross and Brand, but in this instance think they did go too far - I for one would probably have reacted more vehemently than Andrew Sachs has if the same ever happened to me...

It HAS become far too newsworthy, but hey - it must be a light week for 'proper' news. Let's hope it can be dealt with through the proper internal channels as Serin said.

I think its very big of Brand to resign. It shows he is taking responsibility for his actions and I really respect him for that. Its probably PA's telling him he has to to save his reputation, but still... we'll see eh? I dont see them disappearing anytime soon, but this might knock down this "super presenter" craze thats starting to appear, those few out there getting huge amounts of money because they are so "wonderful".

    • Yep I really struggled with Matt & Jamie which was a shame as otherwise really like Matt. Unfortunately it comes across on-air whether it's actually try or not that Jamie doesn't know a lot about radio and doesn't seem particularly desperate to improve either or if I'm being generous he's playing an act - neither of which particularly appeals. The everyman act can sometimes work but you need to have that natural likability and appeal for it to do so in the way that way Chris Stark did. I mean even towards the end of his stint with Matt Jamie was struggling with getting the Whatsapp number right which is a basic.
    • Have to say even if there is a good reason for Jamie to be off on Thursdays the optics of them a month in still not be able to do a 'normal week' of the scheduled team for a brand new show isn't great. And if Jamie was meant to be away on Thursdays clearly nobody let whoever runs BBC Sounds know. Who would've guessed from the Vick & Jordan days though that it would be Vick who's the everpresent so far (just kidding Vick - really rate her as a DJ and I know she has a lot of other engagements outside of Radio 1).
    • Sorry explain what you mean there please? Danny is unlistenable?? 
    • I dunno if it is me but even Vick and Katie don't sound as good in that slot alone as they did before. Maybe I have just fallen out of love with it all.
    • Agree with most of this above. Listening to only vick and katie today, I was thinking that it doesn't need Jamie. Its very jarring how sometimes he's there and sometimes he isn't. I don't think it needs to be a trio. Surely there are bigger problems at the moment, Danny on a pretty big slot on the station is literally unlistenable.
    • Yes, the length of the time on the station does help as with Annie Mac she did what dance specialist DJs kind of get a bit more favourability with the evening listeners who start out on something specialist. With Annie Mac she did years on dance before going to the flagship new music specialist programme with giving opportunities to new DJs and curating the playlist and having something different from Clara’s more music daytime show where she had to work with the playlist. Had she done more time doing a specialist show later on in the schedule it may have oddly made the moment bigger. Think sometimes what has helped create such a unique sound in presenters and personalities like Annie Mac, Jack and Grimmy for example starting out doing a late show with looser format. Think for the next Jack, Annie and Clara’s of the station do need to have a late live slot and do hope when radio 1 relax is shut down that maybe they change the power down playlist for something with bit more freedom.
    • She is a good broadcaster no doubts but am of the same page with feelings mutual.
    • Clara was always a decent, competent and even good music radio presenter. But equally, she never provoked really strong emotions in me that I must listen or must switch off.
    • Jamie is definitely very divisive though.  Some people's "radio comedy gold" is other people's "unlistenable".  I have liked Matt and Mollie, Matt on his own, Mollie and Jordan etc etc.  But couldn't listen to Matt with Jamie. No hate on Jamie but I just don't like his sense of humour.
    • The dynamics of this are interesting.  Jordan works best with people he knows and he already knows Chris and Sian so from day one it should sound fairly natural.  
    • Have an amazing birthday Scott!  Looking forward to Tuesday! 
    • This has to be a joke right. This is so Scott Mills 🤣
    • Greg's shoe live and Jordan on catchup so can skip ads
