Not watching in 2007

I usually watch the Brit Awards every year as, despite the usually ridiculous choices for the winners, they usually are quite entertaining.

Not this year. They’ve invited Russell Brand to host the awards. How this over-rated, talentless, waste of space has had the career he is having is beyond me. He’s a twat. His is the most inexplicable career in showbiz ever. And with someone like Paris Hilton to compete with for that title, that’s saying something.

Saying that, I might watch it to see if someone punches the cunt in the face.

Chris de Burgh is an idiot

As if Lady in Red wasn’t bad enough, you now have another reason to hate Chris de Burgh. According to the Beeb, he is now claiming to be a faith healer. Read the article, it’s full of the usual delusions these people are full of. I assume he’ll be applying for James Randi’s million dollar prize now.

Thought not!

Top of the Pops is dead

The long running music show has come to an end. People will say that moving it to Sunday on BBC Two is what killed it. Although it has only just died, the initial blow was struck ten years ago.

At the time, the show was on Thursday nights at 7pm. The BBC decided the the program was best suited to Friday nights. However, instead of keeping it at 7pm, in a pre-night out slot, they decided to put it on at the same time as Coronation Street. And then wondered why it lost ratings.

That, along with a constant refusal to ban miming is what killed it, not the move to Sunday!
