Ouch Podcast - stop abusing me!

This is just a really quick message to everyone who keeps emailing me both at Ouch and via this blog.

The fact that the podcast has come to an end is not down to me. There are policy reasons, good policy reasons, ones probably a bit too dull to get into, as to why we were only granted a 'trial' in the first instance. I can't really say any more than that, sorry. I'm not meant to use my personal blog for work purposes and I don't intend to start now.

All I can do is hand it over to you. I'm aware that an online petition has started - nothing to do with me - so if you want to show your support please stop emailing me at home and go and speak to the petition people.

Despite taking the flack, can I just say that it's actually really nice to know that for the last six months we've been doing something right, something really popular.

HI Damon! I find it bad that people are emialing you about the podcast and if I have I apologise.

I have signed this petition and it's become a good success as you can see. Don't worry about it being bad, it shows that we all like it and want it to continue and because of that petition it must be a good thing right?

Why not add your support like the others have like Liz , Mat, Lawrence Clark, and other well known Ouch faces have? We appreciate everything that the uch podcast and website has done and this is our way of showing it.

Hope that we get lucky and the Beeb decide to keep the podcast.

It's silly that someone also decided to put spam on your comments here too, hjust ignore it!
