    This is an English television show. We don't use the Euro in the UK.

  • @SeanSchecter I'm English but I've been to America a few times now. There are these things called boats and aeroplanes that are pretty good at getting past "great fucking ocean"s. We don't use the Euro and as for servitude, how's life in that ex-colony of yours? Nice language you're typing, wherever did you pick that up?

  • @k4n3n1 American tv sucks balls. Its always cop shows, everything else is stole from us - the office, being human, shameless, skins, american idol, hells kitchen. Not to mention their sports baseball=rounders, football=rugby for fags

  • @SeanSchecter I am from London living in Texas. Ooops. Plus girls go crazy for my accent, chew on that cunt

  • american television is always KING, this is coming from a brit.

  • @mrfwest lmao..

  • @mrfwest lol, she said it was a "colony" (singular) and you correctly pointed out that America was 13 Colonies - so she added a postscript conceding it should have been "colonies" (plural)... and suddenly you start going on about spelling, because you don't understand what she's saying (for some reason)

  • @SeanSchecter er got news for you... we reached your shores centuries ago, you're descended from us. Also servitude to whom? London runs world finance

  • @NastyChuck I agree, that's surely what the founding fathers would have wanted, for everyone to just shut up and go with the flow.

  • @ciaran3707 There is not fair and balanced on any news station.Fox news are fucking lieing right wing facist retards.

  • I am British and consider myself fairly liberal but I subscribe to Fox News on Sky specifically to get a right wing perspective on American politics. It is very interesting although certainly not "fair and balanced" as they proclaim. I would subscribe to Msnbc as well but for some reason Sky (largely owned by News Corp which owns Fox News) decided not to make it available!
