    the Hook-meister is on the defensive over the sky ads...personally i'm suprised he wrote the script!!!

    http://twitter.com/ghook
    @jimxcomet absolutely worth it!!!!

    @jimxcomet I certainly will never convince you but I did the SKY ad and do not need to apologise

    @TheCountOfSix Sadly I did not do it free - SKY when I last looked was not a registered charity

    Every word of the SKy script was written by me - it is my honest opinion of a service I admire and use

    I am absolutely taking Murdoch'd dollar but if Rugby were free to air I would still be watching it with live pause and series link

    RT @derektroy: George, you berated them as the death of Thomond Park and Irish Rugby when H-Cup went to Sky, your taking Murdoch's dollar

    Long before I ever took a shilling from SKY I considered their service second to none - is just me ?? That is why I agreed to do it

    How did Ivan do in my absence?? At least he could stay in bed in the mornings!!

    So, he wrote them himself. That explains how bloody awful they are.

    Please tell me this isn't turning into a clone of [snip - "ANOTHER RADIO FORUM"]... this is just one of a few threads that have appeared there mere hours beforehand.

    Back on topic... Are George Hook's Sky ads even on the radio?...

    Yeah they are. Personally, I believe Hooky is quite right to make the commercials. Make hay while the sun shines!!

    Sure he's right.

    As long as DISCERNINGlisteners realise the lad is getting paid, I say again, getting paid, for what he says.

    Now if you are stupid enough to accept Georgies word on everything, fair enough, but just realise he is getting paid, and paid well to promote Sky.

    Now he may well be telling the truth, but just remember, trousering a lot of dosh.
