Re: Such a shame!

I do think that becoming a countdown presenter is for the "oxford/cambridge" type with a good english wit. I don't recall you making this complaint when Des O'Connor was hosting. im pretty sure that this is my 2nd day on this forum, so no I did not make this complaint. And Des is better t...

Re: Such a shame!

I think that jeff on sky sports is very good, he is clearly very good at his job. I do think that becoming a countdown presenter is for the "oxford/cambridge" type with a good english wit. I do hope he adapts and shows me wrong as he will probably be on the show for a while, as is the prof...

Now on a serious note, a popular trend is business terminology and can refer to any organisation wanting to keep pace with growing market trends, hence popular trend. An...
