A Quite Interesting night

This is our good friend Stephen Fry and our good friend Alan Davis.
We managed to wangle our way into the audience at QI t'other night. It was all a little bit unnerving as we are both massive fans of the show and had everything crossed that they didn't turn out to be nothing but a bunch of threepenny bits. That would have been sad.
Our worries were unfounded, they were all smashing and hilarious. In fact the banter after the cameras stopped running was the best of all. We also managed to get into the green room after, which was nice because we do love a good celebrity. Though the fit firemen that were also on the show that night proved to be a lot more distracting than our hilariously camp host and his sidekick that has a taste for tramps ears.

READY STEADY CON

Ready Steady cook is a show close to many of our hearts and whats not to love; a bit of banter with D list celebs with some bish bash bosh cooking, all wrapped up with the cheeky charm of the Ainsley Harriott. It's what the half past four slot on BBC2 was made for.

For years I have tuned in to see many a chef turn some commoner off of the street, who doesn't know his arse from his elbow, array of ingredients (all under £5 of course) into a gourmet meal, in just 20 minutes!

Ah it all sounds too good to be true and you know what, you're god dam right! After my own mother went on the quickie bag part of the show, she revealed the shameful truth; that she was told exactly what to take in her bag, every bloody ingredient!

What is the world coming to, first rigged phone competitions from Richard and Judy and now this. Yes you'd expect it from Madely, but Ainsley you were right up there with Phil Vickery as one of my favourite day time chefs. I remember can't cook won't cook even if no one else does, I mean could they actually cook? It's difficult to believe anything anymore. Half past four will never be the same.

Do you feel the power?

We shot our first set of TV ads for Karmarama last week. But thats not the point, the point is they featured the old cult-like figures of the ex Gladiators!! I must confess i love a good celebrity, so trying to be cool went completely out of the window when confronted with the likes of Saracen and the Wolf man. So here are our shameful celebrity whore pics.
Oh and the ads too.

Its probably the best Special K ad you've ever seen

Well as you may have guessed from previous entries, one little side project of ours is to produce some of the most yawn-worthy ads you'll ever see. Heres another, were sorry.


Ah what am i on about! I love it, Lisa loves it. Its like an ugly child, yeah you know its ugly but its yours.

If your feeling down...

Hilarious.

Why i dislike cats

Oh bejesus! G

Who needs a movie?

you failed, NOW GET TO THE BAR!

Humm, that looks nice doesn't it. Especially as the weathers turning and starting to become ideal 'nice cold pint' weather. And it'll taste all the better because its free. Free beer? you say. but How? Why? Well my friends, this is no ordinary free pint, this pint (not literally this one its a picture) signifies failure, it embodies a lack of discipline in Lisa that is unforgivable.This pint is the free pint she owes me because she couldn't be arsed to take a picture of a tramps dog, AND GOD WILL I ENJOY IT. Apparently she is going to carry on with her 'quest' but now i feel it is a joke as she missed another lonely tramps dog yesterday. Im disappointed but i do love an 'i told you so' moment. Cheers.

Orchestral manouvres kept me in the dark

Last week i got a bit classical at Royal Festival Hall on another magical mystery trip of free stuff from my friend Nik. Last time it ended messily with a pair of flippers and a giant cat from Texas on a James Bond river cruise but as you can imagine the Orchestra was a little more sedate. In fact the only thing that was ridiculous was the price of the nano ice creams in the foyer.

So i donned my cultural hat and took in something-ofski in b flat. Now me and Nik were both in the school band (miming the Trombone was my speciality) so i think we were more than qualified to be there and as good as the music was i still didn't know when a dramatic pause turned into an interval or what the hell the conductor was actually doing.

Who put the 'T' in Tea

Tea is the undoubted staple of the Englishman's (or woman's) diet, its even been proven to be good(ish) for us. Excellent! But is it merely its history or its anti-oxidants that keep us hooked? Or does its popularity have a darker side?? I believe our tea drinking habits are being manipulated by (drum roll please) ... Alliteration. There are no tea brands in Britain that don't have any T's in them. They've all got at least one. Think about it...

Twinings
Lipton
PG Tips
Tetley
Typhoo
Yorkshire Tea ( now there is debate about this one but you never ask for a cup of 'Yorkshire' do you? people would think you were a mental)
