Joanna Lumley: Queen Of The Naive

I love Joanna Lumley, she’s foxy, dignified and not altogether unlikeable. She is also sadly cringingly naive. After having heard her talking on Radio 4 this morning I became less and less inclined to be bothered about the whole Gurkha thing. Don’t leave here under the wrong impression, I really believe all the Gurkhas that [...]

Brand And Ross: Enemies Of The People

Another week and another ridiculous overblown hoo-hah in the press about some poor sod or other.

Amy Winehouse – Tears Dry On Their Own (Clapton Remix)
