Bradley Walsh - Appalling Grammar

[Trish9]

I wish someone would tell Bradley Walsh (The Chase and Specsavers Crime Thriller Club) to stop saying "we was", "you was" and "them" things (instead of "those" things.

[Hypognosis]

"atherletes", "athel-eats", or "athletes"

(the last of the three is rare, verging on extinction, lately. Even on the Beeb)

If the newsreaders can get away with it, why worry about presenters on minority interest shows?

[joggerjayne]

It does grate when people say "we was" ...

To Be, past continuous, first person plural ... conjugate it!

(smack, smack)

[Mamyalynne]

Do we really want all our comedians and light entertainers to speak with crystal clear accents and pronunciation? That would be bland and boring.


Excuse me for now, have to sweep t'chimbley.

[Mamyalynne]

We wuz, J?

[joggerjayne]

Yeah, we wuz.

:0)

[Captin Kirk]

I'm from Birmingham so I'm buggered.

[baza]

sorry , did i miss something, Bradley Walsh, light entertainer, surely a contradiction.

[Mamyalynne]

Oh he is light and fluffy and lovely.

[Mamyalynne]

And a good actor.

[baza]

like him in Law and Order but otherwise its a no from me.

[Mamyalynne]

Each to their own.

[Cloverjo]

I think he's awful on Law and Order, but I like him on The Chase. I've never noticed his bad grammar.

[shaneystar2]

He's lovely .He can come and whisper his bad grammar with his "awful estuarial accent" in my ear any time :)

[bundleone]

Nobody needs to be perfect, he is a nice, genuine and entertaining man, that should be enough for anybody.

[atalanta]

Even the Times newspaper no longer uses a plural verb when the subject consists of 2 or more items. Such as "wind and rain is" . . . " fish and chips was . . . "
Alas.
Sigh.

[zebo]

I can't bear to hear the super-superlative, such as It was more sillier. It's either "more silly" or "sillier" but not both. It's cropping up more frequenter. No, don't bother, I know it's wrong.

[murraymints]

Zebo..it's wronger ! Lol

[zebo]

Is that "wronger" , "more wronger" or "more wrongerer"?

[elliemay1]

Leave Bradley alone. He's well fit!
