    Default Brand and Ross suspended



    Jonathan Ross and Russell Brand are to be suspended and all their shows taken off air until the BBC has investigated their prank calls made on Radio 2.
    The news was announced in a statement by director general Mark Thompson.
    Meanwhile, Georgina Baillie has told the Sun that Ross and Brand should be sacked over the calls made to her grandfather, actor Andrew Sachs.

    What do you think? This has all gone over the top. If you don't like them switch them off?

    Or, a pair of immature, overpaid wallies who should be punished for making disgraceful phone calls to a grandfather.

    I think you hit the nail on the head regarding knowing better.

    It's annoying when they start talking about an investigation into BBC procedures and who allowed it to be aired blah blah blah!

    We know that Brand and Ross made the calls - they're paid loads of cash and if nothing else, they should know what's out of order.

    The buck stops with them, no investigation required!

    If they get booted off the BBC what will it mean for us? License fee payers will save the best part of £18 million, and Ross will turn up on Channel 4, or some other obscure channel. So he'll still be about if you really want him.

    Oh and as for Brand, they keep saying how popular he is. I don't actually know anybody who he doesn't give the creeps. Men and women alike.

    I might be missing something.

    Any of you guys enjoy watching him?

    pathetic small minded idiots who jump on the band wagon with everyone else to complain when it was aired they had 2 complaints!!

    she is a **** anyway who admits to sleeping with brand
    it takes a certain type to go with him doesnt take a genius if your gonna flash your bits around then expect a backlash

    only prob is its on the bbc ... but they had the chance to go through it as reported before it was aired

    I personally think people are going over the top with this. They should have known better but getting suspended is way over the top.

    Andrew Sachs Granddaughter will be loving the publicity for her career as a model.
