    The way I see it is that if the audience comes away from these meetings without being essentially brainwashed (to put it simply) then Ben or Patrick or whoever was there hasn't done their job properly

    No meeting needed.
    Lee Jay needs to walk the walk instead of spouting ********.
    Let his team do the talking.
    THAT is what he will ultimately be judged on and his job depends on it.
    Come on Lee Jay you can do it!
    Just be more adventurous

    I do but that isn't a negative or a criticism at the audience or the hosts. They are PR events and the intention of PR event is to boost public (fan) relations, in this case by spoken words. In essence they are their to make you believe things are good (which isn't necessarily a lie) and to alter any preconceived thoughts or opinions that you may have through explanations and honesty. Brainwashing is an incredibly harsh word to use but in its rawest form I think it is the basic same thing as opinion and thought changing and that is what I believe the meetings are for. Again that's not a criticism in anyway, I think that any PR event ever held in the world has the same basic remit

    Ah, that takes me back to the days of Jackanory. For greater impact, I imagined that was being read to me by Bernard Cribbins.:D

    A message from Bernard to Lee Johnson...

    Don't play him there, play him elsewhere.
    The bloody hole's round and Nyatangas more square.
    The shapes all wrong, we don't look very strong,
    And you can't put a centre back where a centre back don't belong.

    I suspect that would not be a popular way to start a question

    But after I got an answer is be part of the brainwashed hoards so I can't waste my one and only question on something as meaningless as a theme tune. I'm saving it for an important question like what shade of red we should use on the turnstyles
