Chris, Having 2 threads on the first page with the same title is a recipe for disaster😰

As such, I have amended the heading of the old Pedants Thread and added the word NEW in this one.

I will remove NEW in due course when the old one has disappeared down the list of threads.

Thanks for starting a 2026 thread, Chris. I've not had many reasons to be pedantic recently, but this state of affairs is unlikely to last much longer!

On The Food Programme, we were told:

People who eat fermented foods suffer from less common diseases.

I don'r want to suffer from less common diseases. I want to suffer from diseases my doctor can diagnose and treat.

Headline on the BBC Sports page:

Team GB face uphill task for four-man bobsleigh medal

Rather unfair when the rest will be going downhill, I think!

Here's another one, this time from the BBC Lancashire section of BBC News:

'I've been eating duck eggs containing chemicals'

What on earth does she think they should contain?
