Refreshing to see Mark Dolan on a Channel 5 doc as a talking head “comedian” rather than “bile-fuelled, grifting hate-monger”

But pleasing to see the editor has kept his sound quality as dreadful as when it was recorded in his attic.

Chris Rea’s part in Liverpool’s 1984 European Cup win must NEVER be downplayed.
The idea of those Roma players walking out into the tunnel to see our rabble singing his song and laughing on their way out into the stadium.
Must have baffled them

Yes of course Mistletoe & Wine is a cover version.
And was first sung by Twiggy.
And was co-written by the bloke who wrote the theme tune to Who Wants to be a Millionaire.

Gonna suggest you might not be able to sing Spice Up Your Life these days.

Lollll three bylines for a national newspaper to recreate (including the exact same restaurants!) what me and a student reporter managed a month ago: www.londoncentric.media/p/host-kitch...

Just rip off our original and give us a buried credit in paragraph 19, we won’t be offended!
@jim.londoncentric.media this looks very familiar in MoS

These days I’m not surprised to hear some say they don’t like The Beatles but to say you actively hate them because they were “4 druggies who sang nonsense songs” was a new one today.

Random chat with a woman today & we got onto the subject of music we play our kids. She’s been playing her son Depeche Mode & his new favourite song is Underworld’s Born Slippy.

I told her my 9 year old liked The Beatles.

“Oh god NO! They were just 4 druggies!! No!”

Depeche Mode, you say?

Six year old Carrie Fisher watching her mom, Debbie Reynolds, from backstage in 1963

Still one of the sweetest pictures I've ever seen.

Happy birthday, Carrie. You are missed

Far too belatedly, days after the initial hysteria, Sky News are forced to clarify that Maccabi Tel Aviv fans do indeed have a track record of violent behaviour
