- Bad week for the current crop of ’starlets’ - Lohan gets her handbag stolen (with a million bucks of tom inside - start scouring ebay) and then gets papped whilst flashing the firecrotch, Hilton gets her album hacked (all hail Banksy) and then gets done for DUI (best picture of Paris onthe web ever).
- Arctic Monkeys win the Mercury music prize, although I think the kid from the Arctic Monkeys made a good point when accepting the award : “Someone call the cops, Richard Hawley has just been robbed” - I would preferred Richard Hawley or Lou Rhodes (review of that album coming soon). Thom Yorkes performance was excellent - if a little scary.
- David Letterman has extended his contract on The Late Show in the US - why can’t we get a regular reasonable slot for this chat show, which is amongst the best in the world - and has got to be better than Charlotte ‘welsh ashtray/mattress’ Church (Channel 4 should be fucking ashamed of themselves), Sharon ‘pottymouth’ Osbourne, or Graham ‘how queer I am’ Norton (BBC3 is about the right place for him). I never thought I would miss Wogan or even Russell Harty - but British TV needs a good, prime-time, 5 days a week chat show with a decent host (and I don’t mean Des and Mel or Paul O’Grady).
- Tony Blair lurches from dumb to dumber - my advice Tone (and I know you read every week) - get out now fella, its all falling down around you. Even your lickspittle junior ministers are starting to jump ship. I know it would take something monumental for the arch-toady Charles Clarke to turn against you, and even though I like your style of getting him to attack Gordon for you today, I think the tide is turning. Pack it in by Christmas, enjoy a few months off - then get on the lecture circuit next year…you’ll get to rub…erm…shoulders with Clinton again. Still at least you’ve got the support of the most powerful
monkeyman in the world. - My lot play Middlesboro this week, Rooney gets himself in a punch up (hardly a surprise, maybe he caught sight of Colleens asda advert - or more likely the other bloke ate the last of the fish fingers), Alan Smith is on the road to recovery (who I really don’t like, but I’d rather not like on the pitch than injured - that was terrible).
That was the week that was…
