Finally got round to watching Stewart Lee’s documentary King Rocker about Robert Lloyd over a few lunchtimes after the kids had gone back to school. Not a performer I had ever really seen or heard but that didn’t […]

It was on the Horror Channel last night, and I flicked onto it 5-10 minutes before the bit you’re referring to Paul. It’s brilliant.

Fairly sure when we’ve driven through the village of Woore in Shropshire, I’ve either gone “Wooooooorrrrre” in a “comedy” laddish voice (annoying my wife) or sung
“Woore, huh! What is it good for?”

Seem to remember REM’s was quite good – their version of “Love is All Around” is a much gentler affair than Wet Wet Wet’s fairly bombastic cover.

TV mainly for me this month. We finished watching the Serpent which was magnificent – Jenna Coleman was superb and Tahar Rahim mesmerising as Charles Sobhraj. We’ve also been enjoying The Great (Huzzah!) – a […]

This is a fine record – bit “Sky Sports Roundup” but still, worth posting on here.

Re Opera and musical bits between the shouting – funnily enough I’ve listened to the below a couple of times over the past few days. Not sure why I did, but it is lovely (see also the Intermezzo from the […]

Masterful. You could tell how much he loved what he was watching. The commentary for the Lineker hat-trick in 1986 is outstanding – passionate but non-biased which is exactly what you want.
If you ever get a […]

Crumbs! I went to Peru with some friends in about 1999. While in Cusco we spent most nights in a nightclub called “Uptown” which played a bizarrely eclectic mix of music (presumably for the European traveller […]

A Different Class Maybe? Or as it’s 1999 and looking at some of what’s already been voted for, Performance and Cocktails by the Stereophonics.

Ice Magic. Chocolate/ toffee sauce that went properly firm on your ice cream, almost like an Easter egg. More recent versions work ok, but they’ve never got as hard as Ice Magic which was wonderful stuff. It […]

I got into Inspector Montalbano (which I unashamedly love, it’s escapist, it can be extremely funny and it just looks beautiful) from watching the Young Montalbano. It’s a bit grittier, and I’ll admit, the […]

I did get a like (or a retweet, can’t remember) from Engelbert Humperdink after tweeting a terrible joke asking what his favourite Olympic sport was (Tai Quando Quando Quando if you’re wondering, which I’m sure you’re not).
