In yer face Radio 5 vox pop: I think it's quite good. It's quite, sort of, in yer face, but it's not too, sort of, fast and furious. You know, the sports news is there and that's something I really like. Tony Thorne: In yer face began as a slang phrase in the US and it was always used to criticise people's behaviour. It would mean that someone was being too assertive, or aggressive, or pushy. And now in Britain, in media talk and in conversation, it's usually used approvingly and it means, sort of, very confident and powerful and uninhibited. And that 'uninhibited', I think, is the clue, it's all about the British getting rid of their traditional reserve and their traditional shyness and being uninhibited.
