Question Time's new low with Fern Brittan

"I can not believe it" was a phrase often quoted by TV character Victor Meldew.  The same words crossed my lips when I saw the panelists for the last Question Time (23/06/11), one of which was Fern Brittan, a soft TV presenter of daytime TV who in order to lose weight had tummy reduction surgery and said it was down to dieting.  Who has never in her years of TV presentation ever asked a political question.  Who quite frankly on this program could only make a sours ear of it.  The producer of QT should of gone to a children's nursery to have got a guest rather than ask Fern to turn up.  Not to mention comedian David Mitchel.  It can only be someone has had a quite word in the producer's ear to get her on there.  She must be suffering from her less than normal 8 hours TV coverage.  Within five minutes of the start her ignorance belows out like Sarah Palin commenting on any political issue in the US.  A question on Greece and whether they can be saved, all Fern can do is refer to a conversation she had with an John Redwood MP (Tory) on the panel earlier (not during the program airing) and gave no viewpoint. In ignorance she states troops should come out of war torn countries such as Afghanistan, but she doesn't present any justifiable reason why those countries would then be allowed to run amok in a self genocidal manner.  It is as though Fern wishes the word "ignorant" be replaced in the dictionary with her own name.  Her view is talking should of taken place first.  Weird, all the while the talking would of taken place she doesn't care about the many more thousands of innocent people dying at the hands of tyrants.  Talk about lost it.

So it seems, the producer of this program must of lost it because he bloody well could not of been in his right mind when he put the panel members together.
