Okay, firstly even if people didn't listen to the show they have every right to complain if they don't agree. After all the BBC is funded by tax payer money, so as long as these complainers have paid their taxes there is nothing stopping them complaining as much as they want. Secondly, although I agree that this has been blown way our ot proportion I cannot even begin to describe how glad I am that Ross and (to a lesser extent) Brand are off the air. Thirdly, just because the Granddaughter is a burlesque dancer does not make it okay to verbally abuse her on national radio. That, my friends is a very dangerous attitude. Lastly, to TOMQ84, I think you'll find that Noel is complaining not about "middle class toffs" but about the general readyness of the entire British population to believe everything and anything that newspapers tell them - your classist comments are basically just blatant discrimination.
