Storm in a Swimming Pool

Let’s get this straight - Rebecca Adlington, bless ‘er, DOES look like someone looking in the back of a spoon.

This policy is extremely dangerous. British TV [...]

It’s well timed as the second half of this 2008 tour kicks off, and there’s some good advice [...]

Frankie Boyle

Currently on a summer break from touring – no doubt to record Mock the Week – Frankie Boyle is a pretty prolific comic, it seems.
Not only does he contribute hugely to Mock the Week, he’s also contributed material to Jimmy Carr, as well as appearing on Have I Got News for You, They Think it’s [...]
