Like it or lump it, Steve Penk, if you think about it, *IS* ITV: Bum-faced, local-radio-voiced and "light" in the worst possible sense of the word. I particularly detest that format of programme - the rib-tickling clips show... from You've Been Framed to - well, where is there to go? Auntie's Bloomers... Before They Were Famous ("And now the moment just five seconds before Anthea Turner was officially classified famous! There she is! Look at her <inaudible smirk>... face! And her <titter>... hair! I bet she really didn't want that one shown, eh viewers?")...
Sadly I have to file it away under "not even worth getting worked up about, for Christ's sakes". You can go mad worrying otherwise.
I heard him on the radio while I was having my hair cut once. He was rubbish.
>I heard him on the radio while I was having my hair cut once. He was rubbish.
He might be on Capital, but that's still local radio. He's a bit like Adrian Juste in that "here's something funny I'm going to show you but I'll interrupt it with my deathly scripted quips otherwise there's no point having me in, really" sort of way. Which really does sum him up, really.
He makes prank phone calls, you know. OH, my sides.
Prank phone calls? What, like you mean he rings up the police tells them he's planted a bomb somewhere, but really he hasn't? That sort of thing?
>Why Steve Penk?
On the Radio:
Steve Penk is the epitemy of commercial radio.
On the TV:
Steve Penk is the epitemy of commercial television.
HTH.
come on there could be worse
i know Martin Collins & at least Penk does play quite good music
I'm getting fed up with the standard of spelling on this forum.
Bods: It's epitome not whatever you wrote.
And please, everyone, learn how to spell definite.
I shall be watching closely in future.
Well, you can't even spell 'Colin' properly.
What's the point in moaning about peoples spelling - do you honestly think i'm going to read through the shit messages that i send? I don't think so.
Penk is shit of course - hence working for ITV

I think you should start, then at least someone will have read through them.

I leave it to you to read them if that's ok.
You Cock
Now then ladies lets not turn nasty :)
Who cares about spelling anyway? I always take care to spell correctly but does it really matter if someone else doesn't, as long as they get their point across?
>You Cock
I am intrigued to know why you think this is offensive. Not that I'll read through the whole answer.

It's a sarcastic insult.

The bizzare thing about Steve Penk is, that he's the spitting image of Graham Fellows when not in his John Shuttleworth garb.
Fight,fight,fight...
The title of this thread could potentially be the name of a track on the next Half Man Half Biscuit album.
>What's the point in moaning about peoples spelling - do you honestly think i'm going to read through the shit messages that i send? I don't think so.
I will stand up for the Kernal, sorry, Colonel and say that I prefer correct spelling and grammar, even though I'm not the best at it myself.
>I will stand up for the Kernal, sorry, Colonel and say that I prefer correct spelling and grammar, even though I'm not the best at it myself.
Well I like it meself but the fact of the matter is that I am a bad typist and a bad speller too. And until someone builds a web browser that spell checks your form submissions, or I actually have the time to check what I write, things aren't going to change much.
I also don't have a dictionary on my desk...
Now you do:

How is "You Cock" a *sarcastic* insult, exactly? Do you know what sarcastic means? Are you sarcastically implying that you don't think he is a cock?

Well at least the spelling was right in your definition even though it had little else going for it.
So 'Duncan', if thats your real name...why not try concentrating your efforts into writing something worthwhile, rather than thinking up a funny name.
You cunt-fuck.
This is not sarcastic. I think you are good - this is sarcastic. Do you see the difference now?

So you don't think a 'cunt-fuck' is good? Perhaps your technique is 'sarcastic'.
Who said anything about 'a' cunt-fuck?
btw, if this really matters, Joe wrote that last e-mail for me - cheers. i could never think of an insult as good as that.
>Why Steve Penk?
He is just what Carlton and LWT likes.
i.e. He is cheap.
LWT may make good regional programmes, but come on, most programmes that they make involve a VT machine with a load of 'funny' cock-ups.
No I didn't write that insult. PJ is of course lying to try and cover up. This is not sarcastic, either. Go on, fight damn you.
Why do ITV insist on foisting another Capital DJ on us....Tarrant On TV the most dated and unimaginative programme gets commision after commission all on the Back of Millionare. I've never found Tarrant on the radio any better that your usual local radio DJ even though Londoners go on and on about him!
Old Joke about Tarrent on Tv - (Serious voice) That was a harrowing advert for drink driving, shown in Australia to combat the horrendous oucome of such terrible behaviour.
Now here's a fat woman giving a man a blow job!
