While half time was happening during the match between Belgium and the good old U.S of A I switched over to ITV and Benidorm was on, I happened to catch it just as the cross dresser who skates around was starting a karaoke song, what was it? Rolf Harris's two little boys, the papers are giving them some stick over that, should we ban all songs by such people?
Jonathan King, Rolf Harris and Gary Glitter, they get royalties every time they are played so that is wrong, maybe the money should go to the charities who support victims of such crimes?

What is wrong, that they get royalties or that their songs get played?

Should we rid the airwaves of all Phil Spector songs also?
