Scene and heard

Anyone reading this who has ever watched Graham Norton will know that this is a show that people who sing religious Christian songs with their hands in the air and their eyes closed might only watch to further their research about the moral decline of our society fulfilling prophecies of the end of our civilization, as we know it. I’m sure some might secretly enjoy it before they force their blood to boil so that they can more effectively spit their venom. For the most part, however, I don’t suppose too many religious Christians do watch Graham Norton, due to the fact that he is gay, the themes are adult and there is a lot of swearing.

So why, in a program where they did a spoof remake of 1970s German Porn, with an audience member playing the part of the Maintenance Man calling in on the obligatory two scantily clad women; why, I wonder, did Time Life advertise its Beautiful Worship CD? I can say with reasonable confidence that pretty much every penny spent on airing this commercial during this program, was a penny entirely wasted. Either that or there are even more hypocrites around than I had imagined!

Here are a couple of his telephone pranks to prove my point. First with Elton John and then with Cher:
