i must have got this wrong.......but im sure this is what i just heard on the radio:

[Viper]

:shock:

[jonboy]

Does it really matter?

yes

[UlsterSV]

I doubt a Muslim would want to comment on a Christian celebration :?

[Tara]

Thats what i thought - its prob a channel 4 thing

[Biker Biggles]

Do you mean the Queen's speech?
I know she often wears a headscarf,but I think converting to Islam is not allowed under our constitution. :wink:

[fizzwheel]

its prob a channel 4 thing

Thats what I'd wager it probably is. I seem to remember that they normally do an alternative to The Queens speech at 3pm on Christmas day so I expect its that.

[UlsterSV]

You're bang on Tara. Sorry I doubted you, Hovi5 :wink: Had to be C4. No media outlet panders to immigrants more than them.

Sounds like C4 on a bit of a wind up more than anything, i think its hilarious.

[Tara]

I got something right :shock: :shock:

yes

What seems to matter more to people like you, is simply the stiring-up of trouble. Why not give it a rest?

[northwind]

They had Marge Simpson one year, and Sharon Osbourne another. it's basically a complete ****take, and they're good at it. After previous years of pandering to cartoons, and pandering to Ozzy, it's only fair they pander to immigrants this year :roll:

[Kylie]

How can a ****take be pandering to Muslims? :D

[cuffy]

Queens speech, muslims speech, marge simpsons speech.......who gives a fook anyway :?:

3pm Xmas day i'm usually either:

A) asleep n farting like a trooper on the sofa

B) Yelling at the kids to keep the noise down as i want to sleep on the sofa and fart like a trooper

C) Wanting to kill the mother in law as shes fallen asleep on the sofa and farting like a trooper.

Carry on :D

Bah Bumhug!!!!

[northwind]

Because all muslims hate England, and the Queen is England personified, so taking the **** out of the Queen is, in effect, the exact same as flying a plane into the House of Commons.

[Kate]

yes
I don't see how.

Doesn't matter to me anyway.

So someone will make a speech, some will listen and not all will agree with the content. The creed, colour and appearance should not matter a pair of dingos kidneys. :roll:

[Tomcat]

Channel 4's spokesman also said that the controversy has "generated a debate about multiculturalism, secularism and integration - a debate in which British Muslims have played a key role and one that will shape the future of British society".

So this is a case of Channel 4 giving a veiled Muslim the chance to endear herself and other Muslims, through humour, to the British public at the end of what has been a bit of a bad year for those who wear the veil. If she had been doing the speech at a time when the veil was irrelevant then fair enough, but it's the fact that she's doing the speech this year.

[Ping]

I don't have a problem with it and am quite interested to hear what she has to say.

[carlos]

To be honest I really don't care what she has to say, and in all fairness i don't really care what the Queen has to say either. The fact that she is doing the alternative xmas speech on C4 is fair enough, but if it had been a direct replacement for the queen's speech i think that would have been really wrong against British tradition. Ok so the muslim population in the western hemisphere have a bad press and deserve a public voice, but i really despise religion for my own personal reasons and don't really want to hear what she has to say.

Sory, but those are just my views.

Happy Christmas (or do we have to call it wintermas now?)

[valleyboy]

I don't have a problem with it and am quite interested to hear what she has to say.

' All your shops are belong to us '


thats just a misquote of something said during world war 2... :lol:

I dont get C4 anyway, so wont be watching that... infact, I will probably be busy watching DVD's or playing on my PC...

[Warthog]

I don't see Hovi5 as stirring at all.

I won't be watching either on christmas, I will be spending the time with my family rather than watching TV.

Cuffy Towers sounds like a delightful place to be at 3:00pm on Christmas Day regardless of what or who is on the telly.

I shall be watching Her Majesty in the hope that she again refers to her horrible bottom.

Well, yes. But that's not happened, and isn't going to. It's like saying "I'd be really offended if they tore down Nelson's statue and replaced it with a giant knob" :)

[tricky]

Perhaps not... But any joke I could make to follow this up definately would be :)

[Dicky Ticker]

That is the point "Why can't we all get on" I don't think its the people on here you have to convince. Sorry if I'm rubbing the grain the wrong way
