Last Chance to See

Whoa! We skiied a little off piste with that last post. Please to forgive. It’s just that I’ve been doing more campaigning than blogging in recent weeks and wanted somewhere to put the results. God knows if we’ll make the local media.
Meanwhile, back on TV, can I just say how much I’m enjoying The Last [...]

Ishoos with Twitter

Don’t get me wrong: I love Twitter. Just like I love Facebook and I don’t see them as mutually exclusive. We have an open relationship. I put my photos etc on Facebook, where I track who my so-called Friends are (a lot of them are colleagues, but it’s all a blur these days). I feed [...]

Noel Edmonds Appassionata

There’s all sorts of excitement on the web today, as there is every day of course. Earlier I was alerted by one of Stephen Fry’s excellent tweets to the brewing row between LBC/Global Radio and blogger and Guardian Bad Science columnist Ben Goldacre over a programme on MMR. You can read all about that here. [...]

Jonathan Ross is back

Stand by your beds: Jonathan Ross is back with his BBC 1 Friday Night Show tomorrow night at 10.35pm. And by the time you read this the show will already be in the can, having been pre-recorded (as usual) today, Thursday although at the slightly earlier time of midday.
The BBC made something of the excitement [...]

Happy Mondays!

Hello, good morning and happy, happy Monday - as Stephen Fry might say if he were hosting an episode of QI and that episode was being shown on a Monday morning.
What on earth is the BBC doing, up to its old tricks by poaching popular BBC 2 shows to air on BBC 1 but then [...]

Never Mind the Buzzcocks

It seems the producers of BBC 2’s Never Mind the Buzzcocks are making something of a feature of inviting the not-so-musically-obvious to appear on the panel show. A few weeks ago Stephen Fry did a star turn on the show, to general acclaim and decent ratings (2.4m and a 10% share of viewing at 9pm [...]

Swearing

 
Swearing is a subject close to my pysche and, since I read something by Stephen Fry in which he swore blind to stick to swearing because he enjoys it, I’ve become even more addicted to it.
But like all behaviour, some people like it and some people don’t. Sometimes it’s inappropriate. Sometimes you can’t help yourself. [...]

Fry gets a Blackburn makeover

 
I missed the first episode of Stephen Fry in America (9pm on Sunday, BBC 1) so joined him for the second of this six-part series where he was travelling in his trademark black London taxi around America’s deep south.
I wish in some ways I had some intelligent, insightful things to say about this - but [...]
