Basiclly, only reason sometimes things are shit is 'cus you reckon they're shit, rather than them actually being shit. Or maybe sometimes it's both. But whatever it is, you can turn it around, at least eventually.

Just roast the bastard. Or cut a lemon and whole bulb of garlic in half and stick it all up its backside. If you do stuff it, only fill the bottom half of the cavity, don't stuff it full of stuffing else it'll take forever to cook properly.
Edit: if in doubt, ask Delia: www.deliaonline.com/how-to-cook/chicken-and-other-poultry/how-to-roast-chicken.html
I don't put stuffing inside the bird anyway, it goes too squishy. Make balls out of it and stick them on a baking tray until they go cripsy at the edges.
