The BBC, sometimes known as 'Bloated Bureaucratic Crap', announced today their budget to cover the World Cup would exceed $9 million due to the construction of a new glass studio for three new and exciting announcers.
Sir George Laffingwell confirmed the budget was 'pushed a wee bit' due to the signing of Erin Andrews, Skoob 1999 and irreverent newcomer Amsterdam Bridge Dweller Jaggedone, who has a vast underground following for his Pirate radio broadcast.
The BBC, known for its redundancy of people required to cover a sporting event, said that the new hires brings to 295 the amount of taxpayer funded employees heading for South Africa in June for the month long soccer event, with expenses budgeted for each to approximate $30,000.
To provide safety to their 3 star announcers, the BBC said they will be constructing a bullet proof glass enclosure with a 360 degree view of 'Table Mountain' where between matches on the pitch, Mau-Mau and Zulus will reenact triumphant battles against the British sponsored by the European Union. It is said that Michael Caine will be in the booth in full red uniform to narrate the extravaganza, and comment on his experiences while starring in the film classic of the same name. George Obama, representing his brother, Barry, and the US,will narrate and fill in details of the Mau-Mau uprisings his grandfather participated in, and explain why to this day his brother holds a grudge against Winston Churchill.
A BBC spokesman promises special event filled coverage of the matches, and vowed to reprise Ms. Andrew's famous interview when she forgot to turn off her helmet cam while in the visitor's shower room during a Mann U Vs. Leeds
show down late last year.
Skoob 1999, president of the David Beckum fan club, is said to be 'right tight' to get started on pre event coverage, and is doing a special look inside the lines as England prepares for the match by sending many of it's stars to sexual addiction rehabilitation in order to insure that they will have an aggressive attitude toward their opponents.
Jaggedone, known as JO to his underground fans who tune into his Pirate radio station powered by a generator with its recording studio moving around constantly in order to prevent authorities from arresting him, is said to be boning up on some of his more outrageous comments. The BBC has said they have prepared for JO's on air time by instituting a full 10 second delay on any of his comments so they may be cleaned up before being beamed back to the UK.
Infamous nude voyeur pix of Ms. Andrews can still be viewed in the magazine section of the internet site The Spoof.com which to date has 7 views and can be found under the listing "Bordello Falls-Nude Pix of Erin."
