Me complaining again ...

[a_silver_story]

I never received a reply to my last complaint (well, not from the BBC. Ofcom have been much more responsive), so have sent this rather angry one, and shall send more, until my main concern of Clem's comment have been explained properly.

Dear BBC,

I sent a complaint over two weeks ago and never received a reply, despite indicating via the drop down menu that I required one.

My complaint addressed issues of homophobia and misinformation regarding the recent BBC miniseries ‘Torchwood: Children of Earth’, mainly the insinuation that sexuality has its own unique ‘scent’ (Day Three; the character of Clem apparently ‘smells’ that another character is in a homosexual relationship) and the omission of other such complaints from the monthly complaint report published by the BBC on the main website.

I am disappointed by this lack of response and consideration by the BBC, particularly as they are a non-optional public service who draw large audiences to their programming and content. It concerns me that this comment regarding homosexuality having a ‘scent’ has not only gone unexplained, but was also actually aired on prime time television as well as my complaint about it being evidently ignored.

I hope you can provide me with an acceptable explanation for the omission of such complaints from the monthly reports, as well as informing me what it is about homosexuals or bisexuals that smells different from heterosexual people that would justify the use of this ridiculous idea.

Yours, Fiona Elizabeth Brown

Halloweenie fic treat-let later!

Fiona-Elizabeth. I think it's brilliant!
But then, I like names like Ella-Rose, Leviticus, and Damian.

Any hypothetical children I have are so f***ed. Thank god I only want cats.

I think you're still Silver to me though. Is that my name from now on? Not that I mind, really.

Hahaha I don't care if you mind. I found that a little stroke of genius on my part.


Actually ... if you are offended ... I'll just shush.

I just figure anyone who's read my fic for so long must have got a little bit twisted along the way ... (I know I have ...)

I don't think that's a fair statement. Some of us were twisted before we read your fic! ; )

I have a grandparent who's middle name is Ianto, so I always planned on naming a little boy Ianto and using that as my excuse.

Unfortunately, my partner of choice has the surname 'Jones'.

Whaddya think? Go for a different name, or aim for the Hysterical Woman Lifetime Achievement Award for having a son called Ianto Jones and an SO called Gareth?

NAME HIM IANTO JONES!!!!

This is all.

Private Pervert signing off. ;)

Definitely go for the Lifetime Achievement Award.
I sincerely doubt you'd be alone in the generation in question for naming him Ianto, though the Jones will definitely get you bonus points. *hug*
