BLACK SQUADRON - POLTERGEIST DIVISION
Hey you! How's things? Really? Oh dear. Well, there's no point worrying. I'm sure it'll dry up and drop off eventually. But listen, forgive me for changing the subject, but...
Ìý
On last Saturday's show we innovated a brand new type of Black Squadron command: the Photo Challenge. We asked our trusty, battle-scarred early morning live listeners to take a photo on a theme and send it to us as quickly as possible. The theme was "POLTERGEIST ATTACK!" and the Squadron responded with extraordinary speed and creativity.

Below, we present a selection of these photos for your viewing pleasure. Remember, these pictures are not winners in any way.

Because this was NOT a competition. As you well know, competitions are disgraceful and a dangerous, subversive threat to the integrity of the Big British Castle. This is merely a representative sample (of the best ones). Anyone who calls this a competition or behaves in a competitive way will be snatched from the street and rushed to the Castle dungeons in a potato sack where they will be tortured by Vernon Kaye until they learn better.

Enjoy!

Anyway, I like them all equally. The most equal one is the pile of chairs because it's so perfectly equal compared to all the others. Which are of equal comedic value. There's no 'I' in 'TEAM' eh?
(Although there is in WINNER)

Please don't release the Kaye on any unsuspecting prize-less winners... we promise we'll be good. *shudders*

(......I'm thinking I can easily shake Kaye off with a few carefully placed, meaningful sentences and BINGO - I'm in the Castle and it's not as though I want to get all the way up to Radio 2 or anything.)

As soon as you rise the ranks from one squadron to another
you find theres another A&J rank above you.
WILL I NEVER BE ON TOP?
(This blog/show is turning into some kind of manipulative cult. I feel slightly manipulated emotionally.
They always tell you, the next level up is the best one, just the next one or wait another.
Just give us your blood, your sweat your TEARS!! Thats it I quit.
goodnight.

(when you come to snatch me for my torture session, could you make it around 8ish, I'll have fed the family and washed up by then, thanks. Oh and ask Vern if I can possibly have either the rack or the tickler, thanks)
Samantha.
p.s janine, I hope you're having a better day today! I guess it feels like getting a huge pressie for your birthday, you open the box and there's another inside, then another inside that...you feel like you're never gonna get the prize, but I salute you anyways.

I was severely confused buy the pictures until I read the readey bit.
I vote the little person vs tele as the winner...
What?
I have been a Teaching Assistant for the morning, that's why I'm tired, so I know precisely how demonic the little female person is likely to be...
OH! It's not a competition? Then why is Vernon looking out from my microwave..?
(You should probably have left this Black Squadron whatsit for Halloween times, unless you have a spookier event planned?)

NOW - can we please have Adam's CawFey House mix? Thank you.
