He was always a fake. He never rang true on screen. Despite being a proponent of “manly values” he was one of the first Hollywood stars to have cosmetic surgery to try and keep his “youthful” looks. The fact is that while there are some actors who cultivate a hard man image, very few actually...

Back from Wild Lemon. They had the roast menu on today. For starters I had sweet potato and coconut fritters with chilli sauce. Amazing. Roast chicken with all the trimmings. Parsnips, roasties, huge Yorkshire pudding, half a chicken, cabbage, swede, cauliflower cheese, stuffing, and a...

Don’t give lard to a cat. Try cod liver oil hidden in their normal food.

Has Dolly ever not looked like a 60 yr old caked in makeup?

What a pair …

Sting and Shaggy. It’s awful. Awful. Mariah Carey and Ol’ dirty bastard Metallica and Lou Reed

Shall be returning to Wild Lemon in Shoreham tonight. It will be my fourth visit. A few weeks ago I had snails for starters. Lovely, beefy, and garlicky. Cooked to perfection. Sirloin for mains with dauphinois potatoes. Again, smashed it. No desert that time but their deserts are...

Sting and P Diddy

I like a few of his. Planes, trains.. and Dirty Rotten Scoundrels are two of my favourite comedies. His stand up is awful and so are most of his films. It’s the SNL alumni isn’t it. Just very unfunny.

I thought he was great in G&S

It’s going to be great.

Book a place to stay. You’ll thank yourself.

Not for me. I thought his more “serious” work was by and large pretty thirsty. I wasn’t a fan. Absolute nutcase as well. Put some of his partners through Hell.

£2000 for an afternoon at the footy. I reckon he’s relaxing like a motherfucker. Yes. He needs to give up going to football. Without question. He needs to lead by example. He’s a scrounger.

Fair point! My Mum was from Belfast. I didn’t hear her accent at all. It was only when my mates met her or talked to her on the phone (in the days before mobiles when you had finding the house phone to speak to mates) and told me she had a really thick Belfast accent that I noticed it.

He’s definitely lost his accent.

Does it really matter? This is the Labour thread now. Can we stick to the topic rather than replaying gripes and boring grudges?

Ha! Derek Thompson. He recently popped up in series 2 of the excellent Blue Lights. A police drama set in Belfast. His accent is pretty good. I assume he was going for a cross between Paddy O’ Potatohead and a deaf Brummie. He really ramped up his puzzled, staring into the middle distance...

That sounds perfect. I like that very much. Good idea on the delay. What a good thought.
