Anyone else notice grammar failings in The Other Bennet Sister? Twice now I’ve noticed the likes of, ‘She told Mr Gardiner and I…’

I really don’t know what the Beeb script editors are coming to.

I saw that too. Couldn't quite believe it. My English teacher would be spinning in her grave

on BBC News tonight about the man who cycled on a tandem for children in need.
Headline said he peddled!

Maybe he was selling stuff as he went?

What’s everyone talking about? Pedal-bike ? Council?

Now pedal power!

In much the same vein I’ve had my weekly email from our local council telling me what’s going on in the next week. A road race will close some roads, click to see which ones are effected 😬

Yes, I saw that too.

Or, as DM used to say, Lord Reith would be turning in his grave.

Must check at 22.00.

Perhaps the bike was being sold by an itinerant vendor.

Surely the BBC know it’s pedalling a bike.
