Tonight, on settling down to watch The X Factor, my friend asked me who I wanted to win. After a moment of consideration, I suddenly realised that I actually don’t care. I don’t give two hoots, one monkey or even a toss.
This isn’t because it’s so obviously going to be Leona (and we’ll get on [...]

When he was alive, my grandpa loved a good ditty. A Yorkshire man, his favourite warble was his rendition of ‘On Ilkley Moore Bar T’at’, but he was always humming or whistling some random tune or other. So I’m sure he would have loved to have sung with The Young @ Heart Chorus, a group [...]

Shock horror at this week’s Torchwood for a few reasons:
1) It was good! And I mean really good!I watched it with the lights off and was genuinely scared. A bit. Well, enough to hold a pillow in front of me Just In Case… Anyway, the tension was great and who’d’ve thought it was just a [...]

Wow. 100 posts, eh? Who’d’ve thought I’d actually have the stamina (or the interest) to keep this going for that long. So to mark my centenary post, I’ve decided to give this ‘ere blog a bit of a lick and paint and have come up with a whole new look (well, I say new. I’m [...]

It’s long been known that Pauline Fowler is due to trip off the mortal coil this Christmas (yet another joyous Chrimbo scheduled for Enders this year, then – actually, yes! For once) and here are the photos to prove it. Phew!

One week in and, oh, how things have changed in the jungle. Just reading over my post about Jan and how lovely she seems makes me rather embarrassed. What a devil woman she is – whiney, moany, matronly, attention-seeking, stroppy, flirty… And that’s after only a few glasses of wine (keep the alcohol coming, execs). [...]

I know it’s hard to believe but I actually stayed in last night, didn’t watch any TV and had fun! Madness… Thankfully, though, the bringer of said fun is currently starring in a ‘reality’ show set in a jungle far, far away, which allows me to discuss it here. Who knew Jason Donovan had so [...]

I’m pretty interested in sociology and anthropology, me… I like sitting in cafes, people-watching. And I enjoy a good old debate about whether opposites attract. Which is why I made sure I watched Dating The Enemy (Tuesdays, ITV, 10pm) last night.
The premise is that they get a girl to date off-type. So last night, Posh [...]

Much as I’d love to, I just can’t give up Trinny and Susannah. Maybe it’s the public school girl in me (hey, it was a long time ago, okay?) or maybe it’s my clothes magpie nature, but I *need* to watch stylists in action (yes, even that bloke what does Lorraine’s show on GMTV [...]
