Helen McDermott is a radio and TV presenter who, back in the day, was one of the most popular faces on Anglia TV, the local commercial television franchise-holder in these parts. These days she keeps her hand in by presenting at Mustard TV, a local community station. Recently, though, Helen hit the national headlines by calling her fellow presenter a naughty name – a really naughty name, in fact the naughtiest of names – after he referred to her as a relic. The gaff didn’t end up of the cutting room floor. Oh no. It was aired and before the watershed, too. But as only one man and his flock actually watch Mustard TV, who would ever know? The tabloids, that’s who. But did she actually say it? You be judge (or change channel, if you’re easily offended).
Thank you to the multi-talented Mark Gracey who suggested this post one night over a sweet sherry.
. . based on what I heard on my recent visit, I’d ask ‘Does anyone care?’ I used to think that language was ‘flowery’ when I worked in the nick – these days it’s everyday stuff.

It does make you think that maybe it was deliberate.
