Kirkpatrick: 'gaffa tape - or, as I call it, rape tape'.

Pathetic, stupid, crass.

Bought it last week and watched it last night with my girlfriend who thought it was hilarious.

I thought I was going on an expedition to Mongolia this week but according to Andy’s comments I’m going on holiday and I think to be fair he’s right…

I think Eric's issue is that it was indeed meant to be funny. I share Eric's sentiment, as I don't think the word "rape" should be thrown around for light entertainment.

not that he happens to call duck tape rape tape.
