    Nick Ross Sacked from Crimewatch

    Well, the lovely Nick Ross has made his last appearance last night on crimewatch after 23 years. Yes 23 years, thats scary isn't it. So we will never hear the words from him "dont have nightmares, do sleep well".

    He was axed cause bosses said the show needed refreshing.

    Isn't this ageism at its most obvious.

    How do the BBC get away with it.

    Are we all to be classed as useless at 59 years old which is what he is.

    Thoughts guys.?

    The beeb have said it's nothing to do with age, they just want to get rid of them both because they are both a bit...well...boring.

    Poor old Nick. He looked all upset when he said good night. Oh well...I'm sure he has earned a few quid out of it over the years. I bet he has a better house and pension than the rest of us, so I don't give a toss really.

    Moira Stuart was sacked in March for being too old I think, the BBC are occasionally dumb beyond belief. Kids don't watch the news anyway, or Crimewatch for that matter...

    He's got a lot of strings to his bow - public speaking, chairing meetings, etc. He probably won't starve.

    I expect they're going to replace Fiona with Fearne Cotton. She seems to be getting all the Big Gigs at the moment.
