In his third soapbox rant, David Mitchell goes on about Wales. Not the fact that it's a useless piece of land where people spell with complete disregard to common decency. Surely calling a town Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch, for example, is plain rude? "Llanfair" would have sufficed.
No, contrary to what some of you may have thought, Mitchell doesn't belittle the country but rather shows an unusual amount of appreciation.
Me, I've never been to Wales, so I couldn't care less. Some comedian suggested dropping an atomic bomb on the place - I'm guessing it was Jimmy Carr - which would probably lead to, what, five quid worth of damage?
