The Socks Scandal....

Only in Britain...

I usually read a bit of the British newspaper The Telegraph online every morning. Lots of doom and gloom about the British economy these days. And then really important news like the BBC staff have been fixing contests and have betrayed the viewers' trust. I guess it says something good about British society when people are outraged about staff naming a cat themselves on a children's show because they didn't like the entries the children submitted. I am also rather bemused.



At the heart of the controvery is "Socks"...the new cat on the Blue Peter show.
