    Breaking News?

    I haven't been paying attention, but I hear that an American woman had a baby recently and that there was some kind of football match in the North West of England.

    Does anybody have any details?

    And that small head knew that Impaire Et Passe would win the Champion Hurdle."

    A fine performance by Liverpool to down my Barcelona bet. Haven't heard anything about a yank having a baby - have they got it down for it's first gun yet?

    A genuine mistake on his part I think - I initially thought it was quite funny but hadn't applied any racial thinking to it - I was just amused at the idea of the royals having an ape/monkey for a baby.

    Idiotic thing to do but notable how much more lenient the BBC used to be with Clarkson over his comments and behaviour on film until he punched an assistant producer in the face that is.
