And I say I haven't. Yes maybe it was another panorama programme I was thinking of, and in a previous post I've said I'll hold my hand up if that's the case.
I've no idea, but when I get the time, I'll have a look. Not that I particularly want to watch that depressing drivel again. But if it makes you happy I'll find the bit where it says the virus will outpace the vaccine, or words to that affect.
So which episode do you think it was?
At the moment the virus is winning. The west is hiding away and even when the uk population has been vaccinated, we are still at risk of new strains until the whole world is done. Thats years away, if ever.There have been several Panorama programmes on the vaccine and the virus. Maybe you've watched a different one. The one I watched was speculating that the virus was winning and we wouldn't be able to win the race as the vaccine supplies wouldn't be able to keep pace. It was very doom and gloom. In fact watching it was like reading a BHOK post on here.
I think eventually covid will be like the seasonal flu. We don't fear leaving our houses because we're sacred of catching flu. You're right though about the vaccine. The more that get vaccinated, the better things will be.At the moment the virus is winning.

'Brexitier' very continental.Well I'm not a red faced retired colonel from a another era. But thanks for your intelligent, well structured reply. Being a Tory and a Brexitier must actually be quite easy at the moment. Brexit done and a whopping 80 seat majority. You haven't really thought that through have you?
Is it?'Brexitier' very continental.
Brexitier like Le Tissier, I thought it was a good solid English Brexiteer like Bucaneer, maybe I'm wrong, doesn't really matter.Is it?
I’d never really thought about it tbh. But since you have mentioned it. I think Brexiteer actually sounds very British. A bit like brigadierBrexitier like Le Tissier, I thought it was a good solid English Brexiteer like Bucaneer, maybe I'm wrong, doesn't really matter.
Only Buccaneer is a corruption of the French boucanier, someone who eats salted beef.Brexitier like Le Tissier, I thought it was a good solid English Brexiteer like Bucaneer, maybe I'm wrong, doesn't really matter.
You really can learn a lot on here, my guess would be that Brigadier was probably a French word, I'm pretty sure Lieutenant would be.Only Buccaneer is a corruption of the French boucanier, someone who eats salted beef.
It’s very anti British on this forum.
Considering the Blackpool vote.
Although not so unusual on political forums as the left are usually most vociferous and relentless. The silent majority are usually, well, silent.
Why do we pronounce Lieutenant - leftenant?You really can learn a lot on here, my guess would be that Brigadier was probably a French word, I'm pretty sure Lieutenant would be.
I suppose the French have had a big influence on our language and culture over the years, at least we have been good enough to give them Le Weekend.
So we dont really know what the political leanings of the silent majority are because of their, well, silence.It’s very anti British on this forum.

Same, probably both wrong!Why do we pronounce Lieutenant - leftenant?
Whereas the Americans pronounce Lieutenant- lootenant?
Always wondered.
The left lost the General Election and Brexit vote. So, we do have fact based knowledge on the silent majority.So we dont really know what the political leanings of the silent majority are because of their, well, silence.
Well a handful of posters on a league 1 football club message board was never going to out vote the silent majority.The left lost the General Election and Brexit vote. So, we do have fact based knowledge on the silent majority.
A few shouting and prolific left leaning posters lost to the silent majority. Fact.
Even if they were correctWell a handful of posters on a league 1 football club message board was never going to out vote the silent majority.
True.Well a handful of posters on a league 1 football club message board was never going to out vote the silent majority.
