  2. Does Glenn's bum look big in this? (Fast Show reference) Wilco from behind
  3. No, but JT guested with Feist in Sweden
  4. Almost all of this is over my head and I can't say I enjoy his more 'challenging' solo work, but he's such a nice guy I enjoy listening to him speak.

  6. Well I have to say, of all the sports at which women excel and which I am happy to watch, footie is not one of them. They never seem anything other than unbalanced and awkward to me, as if all the women who want to play sport but are too uncoordinated to do anything else end up playing football. Sorry ladies ... However, to their credit they don't do hardly any of the falling down pretending to be hurt stuff that the Wendyball men get up to. I'll stick to rugby ... Meanwhile, caught the Iceland v Hungary handball over lunch streaming on my work PC the other day. A real thriller into double ext
  7. Good stuff from the ascerbic wit of Mr Brooker as usual http://www.guardian....n-looked-on-tin I didn't realise 'you people' never got to see the full ceremony. The Abide With Me segment was one of the most moving - being a little tribute to the 7/7 victims.
  8. Wow - it's no contest to my mind. I always quite liked SBS more than lots of longer term fans here often expressed (except for Walken that is :-) ) but, really, TWL is outstanding. So much more variety and ideas, and some simply tremendous pop melodies, and there's nothing wrong with a smidgeon of good pop.
  9. Added a few days ago and with few views HBO Reverb - some segments available before but not the whole 50 minutes+ apparently. Apologies if it has been posted before.

  11. Public school educated. A bit of a buffoon but everyone has a soft spot for him as he says what he thinks without towing the party line. He just thought he was back at Eton playing rugby. Boris = 8 Cameron = 2 Toffs = 1 through 9 They should have definitely been familiar :-) I'm a bit dissappointed by the rash of young former childrens's TV presenters the BBC is pushing forward to cover the mainstream sports - not the gravitas or sports knowlegde we are used to from the greats of the past, but you can't fault what they've done with actual coverage - special temporary TV channels to cover e
  12. Yes, west end theatres are complaining about a dip in business. And speaking of the mayor, Boris got stuck on a zip wire yesterday http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newsvideo/weirdnewsvideo/9444291/Boris-Johnson-gets-stuck-on-a-zip-wire.html But his greatest sporting moment was this in a charity football match - gets a bit carried away against the Germans
  13. Well, the anticipated meltdown of London public transport hasn't happened. Most probably the extra numbers are simply balanced by the reduction of workers taking summer holidays. No nightmare commutes so far ...
  14. New trailer can be seen here:- http://www.guardian.co.uk/tv-and-radio/tvandradioblog/2012/aug/02/doctor-who-trailer-adventure-tardis
  15. Bloody hell, so you have to be on Facebook to vote? Sod that.
  16. So Bradley did us proud and I'm very glad to say I saw him steam past - a good 15 second run of him working because of my well planned position rather than a blur passing by. He's a great guy too - little things like yesterday refusing to celebrate until the last competitor had crossed the line, and this on winning the Tour de France and being handed the microphone for the first time to address the crowd (with a large Brit contingent over for the day) :- Genius.
  17. Nice quiet spot on the grass on the backstreets waiting just at the start of one of the only slight hills on the men's time trial course. Waiting for Wiggo to go past an arms length away.
  18. Bert and Dickie A sentimental easy watch, but nice after a hard days work. Sort of a 'chariots of water', with Matt Smith. A BBC film set at the 1948 London olympics.
  19. Well I enjoyed it - liked the emphasis on music and there was a lot going on that would have meant much less if anything to a non British audience e.g did you notice the brief few second clip of the famous first pre-watershed lesbian kiss on British TV from the soap opera Brookside back in the mid 90s, which because of those few seconds became the first lesbian kiss to have been ever broadcast on Saudi TV. A clip from Gregory's Girl & Kes, The Jam's Going Underground played, Dizzy Rascal from just down the road, the Hitlarious Nazi salute from the German IOC member in the stand, and Dann
  20. Video of the making of the BBC's new Olympics theme, by Elbow - First Steps http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-18960004 "It'll never be as good as Ski Sunday" - Guy Garvey
  21. Well there he was, naked as a jay bird, and I hollered out, "Don't look Ethel!", but it was too late.
  22. After the wettest summer since Noah picked up a hammer, the sun has finally arrived just in time and we hope it will last. There's some token 2012 bunting in the trees outside the office, and the torch is due to pass by on Thursday (not that I'm too bothered). However, I am more and more enthused to watch the cycling after the exploits of Wiggo over the past 3 weeks in Le Tour and Cav getting a stage win again yesterday. Wiggo is an articulate, humble champion and I like him alot, and he's a devout mod, which is always a plus. So, with that flicker of excitement in the chest, let's get even
  23. Lovely gal http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVDVsi_miiw On a personal note, I am now the proud owner of a drum kit, so there's going to be a lot of crash bang wallop with the Beatles on the headphones in the near future. Got to wait for 'er indoors to leave the house though.
  24. Suppose it was hard to turn the pages once she'd put the handcuffs on ...
  25. Actually, someone has put up the BBC documentary I saw the other week with great footage and behind the scenes stories of her, Olga, and err, Nadia, plus some incredible footage of an injured Japanese male gymnast whose Samuri spirit stretched to incredible lengths. A very good programme indeed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhvz8XWyyZE
