Yes it's on face value OTT, but on the other hand it is a reflection of the true feeling against Ross (in the main).

This has been an opportunity to voice opinions on how ludicrously highly paid he is and not worth a penny of it.

More than that though is it is our money paying for him.

What I never have understood though is why the Beeb backs him, pays his insane salary, and yet struggles so much that they have to flog the iconic BBC TV centre!

Sack Ross and a lot of money becomes available to sort the Beeb out.

So yes, it may be OTT, but I like most people don't care, we just want Ross booted out. Let him try and command that kind of salary on a commercial network, not at the taxpayers expense (and yes before you start, it is a tax, not a stupid "licence" fee).

Brand is a moron who's comedy appeals to juveniles, and fair enough in a way. Let him get his knuckles wrapped and move on. Ross on the other hand is supposed to be the Beeb's top presenter.
