OK, I admit that Westdene Seagull has problems with his English diction, but surely it has to be: "I'm intrigued to know where this halfwit learnt to spell" ! Pots and kettles comes to mind. Why exactly is it that nobody seems to be able to use English correctly?
As is BBC, Channel Four and Five, plus pretty much every other channel you watch except a few exceptions. Unfortunately none of them supply the television to your home.
They may decide not to make you aware of that but it doesn't get away from the fact that mistakes like these are hardly ever the fault of the broadcaster.
Memories of television control rooms when the BBC (for example) went "behind the scenes" are long gone. All they could show you now is a cable out the building.
ITV has apologised to viewers following an "interruption" during its live coverage of England's opening World Cup game.
Viewers of the channel's high definition HD service reported the channel had temporarily gone down, missing England's first goal of the competition.
Furious viewers immediately complained, with some describing the service as a "joke". England went on to draw the game against the United States 1-1.
Viewers reported that in the early stages of the match the coverage had suddenly switched to an advert. When live coverage returned viewers found they had missed England captain Steven Gerrard's opening goal against the USA.
ITV1 presenter Adrian Chiles apologised to viewers during the half-time break.
He said: "Apologies for those watching in HD, I believe there was some interruption in your coverage."
The chairman of ITV Michael Grade was forced to issue an apology for the "inexcusable glitch".
A spokeswoman insisted the problem had not originated in South Africa but she could not confirm how many viewers had been affected.
The glitch came after England had gone football crazy as the national team finally embarked on their bid for World Cup glory in South Africa.
