Jeremy Vine is coming under massive attack today following his embarrassing apperance on last nights BBC election results show.Jeremy pretended to be a texan cowboy,wearing a stetson and firing a toy gun as he explained election results.I saw it,and believe me it was one of the most embarrassing th ings I've ever seeon on tv.He looked as if he was drunk or somethhing.

I really only saw the start of the programme (the droning of the experts and politicians around David Dimbleby sent me to sleep). Jeremy did look a bit of a pr*t - I think they were trying to sex up a dull show - but it's not worth making a mountain out of a molehill.

He made me switch over to Sky and the much better Martin Stanford.

Jeremy's always a prat on these things - remember the breakdancing Menzies Campbell last time. He's an embarrassment to the BBC, frankly.

Jeremy Vine must also have his head in his hands. He was one of the presenters of the BBC's election results coverage but tried to go for the humour angle with some comedy skits amid his swingometer analysis. They went down like a Labour candidate in Blaenau Gwent. The "jump the shark" moment came at about 12.40am when he donned a cowboy hat and started talking in a Texan accent. The incredulous look on David Dimbleby's face said it all.

He will not be a happy cowboy today. Laughing
