Saxondale is excellent. I think parts of it are extremely well observed character pieces and while it may be cringey in parts, that's not its main thrust and that makes a refreshing change.

It was 20 years ago… though memory is a lovely file that takes off the wicked edges. This latest special is just cringe-worthy.

I did exactly that in the spirit of "maybe we can have a discussion" and experienced the lightbulb moment that it must be a bot account just posting the same tired arguments about homeopathy, anti-vax, chemtrails, and gm food.

You know what was dreadful? That last "Harry and Paul" special. Did I laugh? Did I fu…

I think a chat, tea, and a bickie my be exactly what someone needs, it would just be preferable they dealt away with the magic memory water.

42% of British medical doctors, 39% of French physicians, 20% of German physicians, and 40% of Dutch doctors should be fucking ashamed of themselves, and possibly stripped of their licences.

That naughty seal! Flip flap.

The only thing I don't like is just how much of "Mitchell and Webb Look" was taken from "Mitchell and Webb Sound". The radio show did loads of sketches playing with the format, sketches that wouldn't work on TV as well as they do on the wireless, which then made the TV show look lazy by comparison.

It's incredible just how easy it is to work "and that's a bad miss" into everyday conversation.

Yes, you're absolutely right. People care, but in almost precisely the opposite way to how they should.

Stanley J Harrison's "Terminatus" novels would say otherwise. Cult character, for sure, but definitely established.

"Because, you know what? No one really cares."
Is Mr. Ansari aware of Bond casting speculation? Because people care. They shouldn't, but they really, really, fucking do.

Australian ≠ kiwi.

Needs 100% more Mads Mikkelsen.

There's already a 2001 film and a 2002 TV series. The lead actor is decent, everything else is of questionable quality. This new adaptation will have, if nothing else, about a billion times the budget.

In a complete lack of self-awareness fit, Anthony Kiedes accused FNM in general, and Mike Patton in particular, of ripping off him and RHCP, going so far as to use his influence to get FNM throw off festival bills.

An Indian Bond would be excellent, but the article picks the wrong actor since the only real choice is Shah Rukh Khan. Not that we want to objectify, but go have a look at his bod in "Happy New Year" and tell me it doesn't conjure images of some beach-based Bond action scenes.

Slight correction. Conor McGregor is not the number one contender, but the UFC Interim Featherweight Champion.

I like Miike quite a lot anyway, but this was so different to the previous work of his I'd seen, and not at all what I was expecting from Takashi Miike + horror anthology that it really elevated him as a director in my eyes. I love his more out the material, but his ability to vary tone is very impressive - and a…

I think it must have been a, rather desperate IMHO, attempt at once again entering the US market, but the 1985 edition featured "Hallowe'en" Rules. Despite it's lack of success, I find this variant curiously appealing, especially around this time of year, and, should anyone care to play, propose an opening move of:
