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

Well there he was, naked as a jay bird, and I hollered out, "Don't look Ethel!", but it was too late.

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

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.

Suppose it was hard to turn the pages once she'd put the handcuffs on ...

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

Your man on the ground here reporting. All the road cycling events go past literally 100m from my house, so I'll be seeing those for free at least. I know someone (former athletics competitor) working on the inside with the organisation/sponsorship so get to hear a few stories about the death of the olympic ideals under the corporate jackboot. Recommended is Twenty Twelve, an Office-style satire on life in the organising committee http://en.wikipedia....i/Twenty_Twelve Indeed, staying up late to watch coverage from Montreal 76 has fond memories. Nadia, oh Nadia ... 1972 too. All downhill

Disappointed that JTs first riff wasn't Smoke On The Water. I thought that was mandatory in guitar shops (not that I spend much time in guitar shops).

Still holding out over here for the Wilco mankini.

Love that film. Murder mystery + time travel. A lot of fun and not some sort of slasher film as the picture implies. Adult Dr. Who.

Dead Boss Not bad, not bad at all, with a little cameo from Carl Barat this week in the visiting Glee Club from the men's prison. Meanwhile the ladies auditions Searching for Carl Barat as Nigel on YouTube will find him if you're curious.

Good work.

Had not seen this before and a 'deeper' than usual sort of interview ... Only a few thousand views on YouTube so I hope worth publicising here. "Made during the promotion of A Ghost Is Born" Now wash your hands.

Excellent - I wasn't expecting any positive responses :-) Does look like a good time. Who was standing on the Bbop Memorial Plaque? I've had the honour a few times in his absence. I would say he was a VIP though and should have got a free pass.

Perhaps, but quite a way down the list, somewhere after why do men have nipples I think.

Ta.

Yes it is. Some very honest/revealing comments from Pete. Enjoyed it.

Another in the list of BBC friday night music docs:- http://www.thewho.com/news/title/quadrophenia-night Watching it on BBC iPlayer now after missing it on Friday. I think someone has already YouTubed it in chunks for all you non-UK folks "Pete Townshend leads us on a trip back to the early 1970s and the making of the rock opera Quadrophenia. Featuring Jimmy the Mod, a double schizophrenic reflecting the personalities of all four Who members, the album was fraught in the making, as Roger Daltrey and other contemporaries vividly testify.
