Gordon in the morning: A national outrage

Leigh Holmwood, looking after TV for the Sun, reports on a shocking show of disrespect to a national figure who, while divisive, has unquestionably won ratings:

SIMON Cowell has been snubbed by Bafta — with neither Britain’s Got Talent nor X Factor nominated for TV awards.

They were left out of the reality and constructed factual category ahead of the May 12 ceremony.

Wouldn't there have had to be some sort of reason to expect the clapped-out X Factor and the dancing dog to have been selected as the best of the year before you could consider this a "snub"?

Gordon in the morning: Echo or Narcissus?

Gordon finds room to bring Leigh Holmwood's piece on the Catherine Tate-Jason Orange romance:

JASON Orange fell for Catherine Tate the moment she made him laugh dressed up as him in a spoof Take That video

It's a lovely story, and I hope they're very happy. But... "you know what? When you dressed up like me, I realised you were everything I was looking for" is a bit disturbing, isn't it? It's only one step away from dry-humping a mirror.
