This fucking programme gets off to such a shit start. First, we are subjected to Joanna Lumley's breathy introduction about the programme being sponsored by some company or other, ahead of the voice-over bloke waffling. Then we have to endure prissiness that's a challenge and a half.
His scene-setting line is delivered in such a pompous way, and he uses a plural that is out-cunting-rageous. Matthew Gravelle narrates, and comes out with the statement:
I've seen mountains in the Himalaya that look less dramatic.
Well, Mr Gravelle, Snowdon may be deserving of a compliment or two, but NOT if you're going to be pretentious. The plural of Himalaya is only Himalaya if you are pompous and being a twat.
This follows hot on the heels of Sir David Attenborough who yesterday fucked me off with "Puma" as the plural of "Puma". Yes, he's a national treasure, blah blah blah, but really! "The puma are ...." is a disgrace.
