Regarding the free RBS ads. Eddie Mair is Scottish, I beleive, and RBS is a Scottish bank hence the tendency to promote Scotland, Scottish culture and Scottish commerce at all times. Regardless of the fact that the English are the overwhelming majority of Licence payers

Jim, Arlanda was a mistake. Hugh was meant to be going to Orlando.

Arlanda is a lot better than the airport used by Ryan Air that they pretend is Stockholm.
