They should both go.

The reported behaviour would not be tolerated by you or I in our chosen professions.

It appears that few of you on  this forum like ross or brand I have to agree with you. Apparently though lots of other people out in the other world find their tasteless supposed humour very funny. It just show how little respect there is out there for other peoples feelings privacy or dignity. I feel sacking wuold not be good enough bring back the stocks in trafalgar square and allow the public to administer their own justice. :y

From the BBC website:

"Meanwhile, the pair have received strong support from Radio 1 listeners."

What does that imply, I wonder?  ::)

I was being ironic. The fact of the matter is that, and I quote the BBC:

"Most of those who sent text messages to the youth-orientated station said reaction to the pranks had been "over the top".

I, and I think there are many like me, think that causing distress to someone by leaving filthy and abusive answerphone messages is indefensible. If the majority of "youf" listeners disagree, they are:

1. Thick
2. Devoid of morality
3. Beyond help

(Tick as appropriate)

Fair go mate, but i'm 45 so no longer a "yoof". I honestly think you're all overreacting. They were both out of order but i can't believe the press & outrage this relatively minor issue has attracted.
    I think i'm divided with you all on this one but i'll stick my neck out once again, this is not worthy of the press....simple. ::)

JR is a self obsessed overbearing egomaniac,give me Parky any day.
RB there are no words.
Whoever decided to let this pathetic nonentity on TV/radio should be deported at the very least.
To ring up a 78 yr old man and shout into his answerphone "he,s breaked your grandaughter" as Ross did is beneath contempt
To boast on the air about a sexual relationship with any female is beneath contempt.
To do this to a man who has more talent in his little finger than these two Specimens have in their whole beings(watch the repeats of fawlty towers) is an outrage.
I would love to see them fired and the firing to be a signal of a return to some degree of standards and basic human decency in public life in this country,but sadly I doubt it will happen.
Just my tuppence worth.  :( :( :(
And while we are talking about radio 1,it now has an ever dwindling share of the market and couldnt possibly survive in the private sector and should therefore be taken off the airwaves. :y
