Hitchins is a knob but these kind of clips always annoy me. BBC wheels him on to have an argument with a popular celebrity on an issue that they know will make him look like a dinosaur, but both Russell Brand and now Matthew Perry failed to contribute anything worthwhile to put him right. Best...

I've got Midlake and Warpaint lined up so far. Keep meaning to get a Parquet Courts ticket as well. Really tempted by Neil Young and The National, but I just know it will be disappointing - Hyde Park is famously a rubbish place to watch music, and the sort of London crowd at that has the...

I've always liked the story about Noel Coward telling O'Toole that if he was any prettier he'd be Florence of Arabia.

Stopped buying when they went from £3 to £3.50, that was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Anyone who is calling Leicester's performance yesterday the worst performance they've ever seen has really not been to many football matches. We were bloody good yesterday, but they played quite well for spells and the game could have gone very differently. They looked pretty dangerous in a...

It's a shame that all this stuff is around at the moment, but in general I find it pretty easy to ignore it all until I'm ready to get excited. That said, you can't help feeling that the excitement that should build up from about 10th December is somewhat dampened by the fact that...

This could be the longest list ever... On the subject of your suggestion, it's pretty ridiculous how bloody small everything is when food shopping now. I noticed the other day that the standard size for a block of cheddar seems to have fallen to 350g (it used to be 500g). Such an underhand way...

Yeah really enjoyed White Denim. They're a bit of a personality free zone but they are really exciting to listen to - the long song in the middle of the set was amazing. As for The Haunt, it's not too bad. The main problem is the bottle neck at the back, when there's always space at the front...

Primavera is the best festival by a million miles and one of the best weekends to be had anywhere in the world. That said, your boys are way too young at the moment. Unlike British festivals it doesn't kick off till about 6pm. All the headliners (though they have a different system there that...

Not in anywhere that anyone who isn't a student would want to spend time it isn't!

That's just silly though. Most people have heard of Dan Brown and Fifty Shades of Grey, does that mean that they are a greater contribution to the arts, that the authors have somehow achieved something more worthy of acclaim, than Self (or, indeed, any other author who writes serious fiction...

Brentford's current ground is probably the best in the league. Shiny new seats and space for corporate twats won't improve on it.

What? This isn't 2000, and Google aren't just a search engine! Did you miss gmail, google maps, google phone, google glasses, google chrome etc. Now they have the capital they can easily stay ahead of the curb of product development, so even if the bottom did fall out of internet advertising...

Claudia Cardinale has to be up there

As far as I can see, Self hasn't 'destroyed' Oliver at all, since his article makes little to no sense. I'm no fan of Oliver as a personality (though I think his cookery books are excellent), but I'm also not sure what his other projects have to do with the restaurant Self is supposed to...

More pertinently, why are you trying to stir up an argument when both parties actually involved have resolved the issue with no problems caused?

I've pretty much given up on Facebook now - the only thing useful is when mates that have moved far afield use it to announce their imminent return home. And yes, I imagine the stock response is something like "if they were that bothered about meeting they'd give you a call" or some other...

Does it really? I read that article and found that the 'revelations' were stunningly dull. A few samples: "England will not win a World Cup until they can produce players as technically gifted as Brazil" "He still does not know which Arsenal player threw pizza at him in the Old Trafford...

Lisbon is AMAZING. One of my favourite cities. Do a day over to Belem, where you'll find the Torre de Belem, the Monasteiros (sp?) de Jeronimos, the Explorers monument, and the famous custard tart making place - they have to be tasted to be believed! Make sure you do a day to Sintra. It's about...

But what if you turn on half an hour late for the +1 version? I understand what you're saying but surely by that definition there's no end to how many channels there ought to be.
