20th June TOWIE dropped from TV schedules


In a not unexpected move, insider sources at ITV have revealed that the hit show based in and around the Houses of Parliament, TOWIE, or as those in the know refer to it,'The Only Way is Ethics' might well be ditched after its second series came to an abrupt end following the shock departure of one of its lead characters.

Still reeling for the earlier departure of Alex Allen, who was removed from the role in 2020 in protest at a potential plot line in which the incumbant Prime Minister attempted to support for a collegue who was found to have broken the ministerial code, this is the second major moral mishap to affect TOWIE. 

Replacement moral compass, Christopher Edward Wollaston Mackenzie Geidt, or 'Lord G' as he is known in luvvie circles,  had only just got into character when the plot suddenly required him to become an ethical vacuum in order to let (mis) leading man 'Bojo' get away with metaphorical murder. Showing that some people still understand the meaning of the word honour, Lord Geidt did the decent thing by resigning. 

At the time of going to press Grace Under Pressure is unable to confirm just who might be cast in the role of ethical advisor to the PM should a potential series three of TOWIE ever see the light of day, but given current government policy it is understand that Dr Evil, from the Austin Powers film syndicate is a strong favourite.

6th May Olbia

  A chance to stretch our legs today with our first port of call; Olbia, Sardinia. And it was a quick stretch too due to it being only a five hour stay. Up bright and early, so early in fact that the hot food at the buffet wasn't even ready to be served. Still it gave us a chance to watch the ship glide into port past a host of oyster/mussel beds, before performing a 180 degree turn to reverse into it's berth. A couple of short bus rides later and we were in downtown Olbia. But there an hour or so before anything appeared to open, the disadvantage of being early birds and something we don't seem to learn! Not that Olbia had a great deal to see or maybe if we had done the slightest bit of planning beforehand there might have benn but we didn't. It was pleasant enough but that's about it. It was pleasant enough but nothing special, indeed we were back on the ship after just a couple of hours ashore and then managed to sleep away most of th...

7th May Naples

Image
 I'm sure I've heard the phrase 'see Naples and die' suggesting that it is perhaps not the nicest location in the Mediterranean but if it's good enough for Diego Maradona fir a few years then it's good enough for me for 10 hours. Although the millions of tax free pounds he was paid might have eased his stay. By the time we got up, washed, dressed and up to The Kitchens, the rest of the ship were already there. Compared to the Marie Celeste of yesterday it was absolutely packed, presumably with people having breakfast before heading out on 8am excursions, our excursion was simply going to be the city of Naples itself as possible trips to Vesuvius, Pompei or the Amalfi coast would have been too much / tired.  So on a day when the weather initially seemed uncertain, we jumped aboard route A for the Hop on Hop off bus and headed out into the mayhem that is the Napoli traffic where it was every van, car and scooter for the selves. I think it's bes...
