Yesterday truly was the end of an era. For over 40 years, I've been appreciating comedy where Jeffrey Archer has been the punchline. From Spitting Image to Old Harry's Game to HIGNFY to The Now Show. If he'd ever shown any sign of remorse or failure, I might even be tempted to mourn.

Now that Lloyds have taken over Halifax and I've just been through the arduous struggle of getting their app anywhere near functional, I'm struggling to see our relationship lasting.
Bands! Endear yourselves to your fans by releasing a longer version of your album for £3 less four days after the initial release! It definitely won't piss anyone off, three days after Bandcamp Friday!
What is the fucking point in trying to satirise anything any more?
Channel 4 have announced celebrities for next series of Handcuffed, where celebs are handcuffed. - Katie Price and Suella Braverman - Neil Ruddock and Bimini - Kerry Katona and Mark-Francis Vandelli - Lady Victoria Hervey and Georgia Harrison MBE - DJ Fat Tony and Princess Olga Romanov
Just found out by dredging through radio schedules that Stephanie Cole is no longer with us, which is rotten news.
There's a data channel in the depts of Freeview showing episodes of Pointless from back when it was on BBC2.
Pump Up The Volume and Drill Instructor topping the hit parade. What a time to be alive.
Fancy seeing the top ten pop charts as seen on Ceefax #OnThisDay back in 1987 in which M/A/R/R/S/ wanted to Pump The Volume at number 1, Rick Astley Never Gonna Give You Up at 4 and Madonna is Causing a Commotion at 10. #80s
Over the last couple of years i've been to my first few gigs abroad where venues are supported as a cultural asset. It's a different world and undoubtedly more civilised than the UK. Vote Tory to fuck all that even further in to the sea.
I mean for one thing Neil, if you guys invested in the arts at all you’d have come up with a less embarrassing riff on the Bayeux Tapestry than that AI slop
The direction of the #F1 coverage this season has been bloody awful. So many tedious sequences of watching lead cars not get anywhere near overtaking each other whilst there are much closer battles going on with overtakes further down the order. Today was terrible in the last quarter of the race.
I've just experienced Spotify advertising a Novo Nordisk podcast where they emotionally hawk you (or rather women, because it's clearly aimed at them) weight loss drugs.... sorry, "a solution excess weight". I've lost count of the number of levels of evil this is.
Buy this album and enrich your life. If you're still breathing after Stay Safe, your enrichment is complete.
Bandcamp Friday? Sure why not 😹 “Tubby” - Anti Slop Social Club danlesac.bandcamp.com/album/anti-s...
Today: Three trains from the green lot, two of which were short formed. One train from Chiltern, broadly fine. Five buses of various flavours, mostly reasonable. LU, a ruddy shambles and ended up paying near three times the fare because i had to use a bus between two tubes.
Here is why the plucky little two car 165, pretending to be a five car 800 is superior to both the 387 and the 800.
I confidently predict the front pages of 80% of newspapers to be "RED ANDY THE PENSION SNATCHER" or some other such bollocks tomorrow.
The year is 2055. September. Planet Earth is still reeling from the fallout of World War 5 and the robots still appear to be in charge, although any order is impossible to locate amongst the chaos. Meanwhile, Aston Martin confirm Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll for another season of #F1.
Can't be long until Global's Cash Call and Bauer's Make Me A Winner are required to have gambling disclaimers after every plug. The former is now hawking entries at £10, having started at £2.50.
I decided not to post about this #totp episode. I quite liked hearing System F's Cry again. Oxite and Shitrino less.
ITV Chart Show Facts MISC: Cypress Hill's bassist Alan grew up on a road called Cypress Hill, which is where the band took their name from. VIDEO: The video for this track was recorded at New Romney Leisure Centre. #totp

We're three acts in to #totp and the best thing about it so far is Jamie Theakston.
Toni Braxton and her amazing rubber lips, gurning away like she's a support act for Star Turn. #totp
