to see Gareth Gates in "Joseph"?

Just how popular are musicals amongst the cycling fraternity? I know we wear a lot of lycra, but come on.....

    I wouldn't pay 25p, let alone £25. BR were obviously a little desperate to fill advertising space

    Two things put me off -

    The musical itself

    AND

    Gareth Gates

    So, er - no!

    I would pay 25 Pounds of the Realm to be allowed to bludgeon him with a meat tenderiser until I was unable to lift my arms anymore.

    Isn't it? Shame. It's a sure-fire way for the BBC to "sex up" Bargain Hunt [1] and improve its ratings. :wink:
    Would I pay £25 to see Gareth Gates in 'Joseph'. Nope. £25 to see him banged up in prison might be a good deal, though (on a charge of 'crimes against showbiz' or similar [2]).

    [1] Which according to "Roger's Profanisaurus" may well be rhyming slang for Gareth Gates.....
    [2] Mind you, if said charge did exist, then prison overcrowding in the UK would be at an all-time high!
