GAWD! I looked in on this a couple of weeks ago,(I think it was the same one - my boy pointed it out to me) and my heart sank!
Reading a Jeremy Clarkson book recently, when he bangs on about how to describe what seems to be an ever growing number of young Brits in the High Street nowadays, and he was trying to find an appropriate word for them......they're not violent, they SEEM to be pretty affluent, or at least not on the poverty line, but they are totally lacking in...a certain je ne sais quois. He ended up by using the word "Gormless", which I thought was perfect.
Quite frightening, really. Didn't this all start with the advent of Jerry Springer and co. on Brit TV?
