How good is Never Mind The Buzzcocks these days? Last night’s episode with John Barrowman and Daniel Be-ding-ding-ding-field was a masterpiece. Between bouts of coughing, we were all in stitches - even Davros, despite his disdain for all things poofy.
Hoorah Simon Amstell. I wish I’d shaken you by the hand that one time I bumped […]
Why have I only just discovered Guillemots? They’re a bit wonderful, with lovely flourishes of brass, strings and magic. Awesome. That’s all.
So the only thing that could’ve topped Finland’s Lordi winning last night’s excellent Eurovision song contest is Bucks Fizz doing a techno renmix of Making Your Mind Up with Michael Ball and Love City Groove as backing dancers. The fact that this metal-fest won means only one thing - Eurovision is going to get even […]
Rather unexcitingly, I’ve been having one of those indeterminate little life wobbles recently, in which I’ve been feeling a little unsettled and generally grumpy most of the time.

OK people. Good songs to have as hold music, please.
So far we’ve got:
Planet Telex - Radiohead #Everything is… broken…
Shaddapayaface - Joe Dolche
Keep me hanging on - Kim Wilde
Hello - Lionel Richie
Clouds across the moon - RAH Band #This is the intergalactic operator… can I help you?
Piano phase - Steve Reich (just plain evil)
Baby give it […]
I’m particularly disliking Radio 1 at the moment, because every day this song brings me very close to breaking point:
#Can I have it like that?
#You got it like that.
#Can I have it like that?

#Can I have it like that?
#…you’ve already got […]
