..has fallen. :(

I have just heard a BBC news reader pronounce something as "somethink".................NOOOOOOO. v(

Next it will be "could of" and "would of" and "fed up of"........NOOOOOOO - whatever happened to with and have, what did they do wrong? :( And don't get me started on "myriad of".............NOOOOOOO. v(

I am going to take a chill pill and have a lie down in a darkened room. :(

Perhaps unsuprisingly, I blame Blair...

I'm just waiting for the day when the news is read in footballeresque present tense: 'Yesterday, the prime minister comes into the Commons, stands at the dispatch box, and he says...'

Mark, surely it would be "he turns around and says" :( Why do people always have to "turn around and" now - don't face to face conversations exist anymore? :( I heard that three times on Jeremy Kyle ii) yesterday. :(

Couldn't agree more! I heard a sports commentator talk last week about somebody's 'DEE-BUTT' (with the accent on the fist syllable) for their team!

I can't believe some of the crap they cover on BBC Breakfast these days, I wish they would just do news rather than this magazine type stuff.
