Couldn't believe my ears when i heard it.

Who is he on the forum?

Well done Jonathon - nice to see someone competent get the message across without faltering.

Sentiment must be changing as I'm starting to hear of possible price falls in the news - bear food for sure.

missed it, will it be repeated?

I managed to get it onto sky+. Will transfer to DVD and put up on tinternet

Financial Planner

Make it psssible for a computer illiterate like me to access, would you? I can just about click on a link but not much more.....!

Very impressed with that! That guy put forward his arguement well, and came across very confident and professional. Gave the impression he really knew what he was talking about and the news reader looked like he wasnt doubting anything he said.

Just need him on the BBC next!

well done Jonathan great piece hope its repeated

Will do. Nearly there

...looking forward to this

Me too....

Me too.

Its nearly there. Still uploading. Taken a while as i have has to transfer from sky to dvd to pc and then reduce size and into divx.

It is in 320 x 240 format. Slight lipsync issue but only slight.

I will also upload the full resolution mpeg to download but that will be a while longer as its 320 meg in size. (well its there for the true bears)

24% uploaded. Ten more mins

Thanks madasafrog - I'm looking forward to this.

Ooooh Alastair Darling on Sky in a moment. 10.01am now It gets better & better

320MB? Didn't know it had been turned into a Hollywood blockbuster!

Thats for the full resolution version. The 320x240 is only 24meg for 5 mins

50% now. Serves me right for getting broadband from BT

Here you go

Edited due to bad link

The link doesn't work!

Link is working for me. Just tried it

Nah, he's Scottish, they all talk like that.

Excellent!

Thanks

Many thanks to the OP for taking the effort to upload this...

Thanks, great stuff.

Nice one FP

Thanks, really enjoyed that!

Thanks for that Madasafrog. Good interview by Financial planner, got all the right points across.

Works for me and excellent.

Very good point raised on the demand for houses - not that there are no houses to buy, what is out there is way over priced.

Thanks Madasafrog.

FP - Good job - balanced, rational and a good start to everyone's Sunday

SB

Excellent stuff!

Hats off to you, Jonathon. Particularly good to see someone speak out against the "housing shortage" myth on national TV. You should have your own show... "Repossession Repossession", maybe?

Link worked fine for me

Thanks for the upload!

Really good interview, perfect sunday morning Bear breakfast.

Cheers for that.

Brilliant, FP.

Well done, Madasafrog!

Yeh, well done guys.

What a week. Rightmove could get next week off to a great start as well!!

Yes! Thanks Madas

And to FP for putting across the argument so well

Excellent, I can just see people this morning spitting their cornflakes over their tables.... Talk of crashing, negative equity... excellent stuff!

At last, some balance on the mainstream media. This view is shared by a lot of people as we can see from the viewer numbers on this site, but its not been represented in the mainstream. While I don't agree with all of this, its something that deserves airing.

Personally I still think that much of what Jonathan is saying is theory and not fact, but we will know soon enough, as the theory is going to be tested.

Specifically, I don't believe that there is hard evidence that more BTL's are selling than buying which was implied if not explicitly stated.

Sky seems to be the only outlet that has exposed the Rightmove numbers so far... whats their game?

Thanks for that, madasafrog.

I don't think I could have put it better myself.

Well done Jonathan - really refreshing to hear! Thanks madasafrog for uploading it!

I don't think it's that important that it's just theory for now - 99% of what you hear from other media outlets is pure theory as well except in the opposite direction to "Financial Planner". In fact, most of what you read in the Times, BBC etc are just bullish hypotheses (shortgage of supply, no subprime in the UK, BTL here to stay so we'll become a rentier society etc). It's all theory but the vast majority doesnt represent the bearish point of view so it's great to finally see our views represented on the national news! Finally the "crash" word is being openly mentioned.

To the OP: thanks for putting this up - you should put this on youtube as well to spread the word.

Thanks Madasafrog, and great work FP!

Interesting that this time Sky decided to put FP on camera on his own rather than with a VI or two to argue against what he said. And I can't believe that's just because Ray Boulger couldn't be arsed to get out of bed on a Sunday morning.

And fantastic to see that supply argument shot down

Excellent interview.
Will be interesting to note how this is looped through the day / evening by SKY - and if it is added to rolling NR coverage.
Would be good if something similar could be on BBC News 24 ?
The NR queues on Monday will be bigger than Saturday - the NR website will still be overloaded - so this story isn't going away yet - unless the media is told to pull it.
If they can spare the time - many estate agents without SKY will be able to watch this here.
Thanks for uploading.

Signed up for a youtube account but waiting for the verification code. Will be on there shortly along with a link to the full resolution video

Well done to financial planner. The nerves would have been to much for me. I would be dribbling and at waving at the camera and saying "hi kids"

Well done Jonathan. Articulate, confident and with sufficient understanding to jump the hurdles. Nice one.

Saw it; I think the interviewer thought FP was a bit of a loon to begin with but his sentiment soon changed as FP continued to calmly make reasoned arguments.

One thing though, was it just me or did someone drop something metallic half way through, there was a very audible (presumably not intentional) noise of some sort.... That or it was the collective penny of realisation dropping?

p.s. yes I did post this on the wrong thread originally

Well done! Fanstastic stuff FP - came across wonderfully.

Wemb

Thanks all.

And to madasafrog - brilliant.

Also, to Jonathon at Fubra (who own HPC.co.uk) who has recorded it too. Look forward to seeing it in HPC in the Media (in the other section).

I believe they'll be using some other stuff in a package on NR.

Your welcome. If you want a DVD copy, i can put the ISO file onto some webspace for you to download and burn or i can put dvd in post. I would have PM'd this but dont seem to have the facility

The .divx copy is available here to keep (low resolution 320x240)

Excellent FP - you are far more polished than your earlier appearances (not that they were bad, you just come across a little less "preprepared").

Love it.
