Polanski Let Off

A court in Switzerland has decided that film director/ child rapist Roman Polanski will not be extradited to the United States. At least the whole affair has lifted the lid on how many in both politics and the entertainment industry will tolerate almost any behaviour provided that it is done by someone that is a member of their tribe.

Rubbish Escapologist.

Look I'm glad she didn't die but I hope she wasn't paid in advance for her services:

Morph Versus Rumpole.

Tony Hart and John Mortimer have both died in recent days. Their most famous creations were Morph and Rumpole respectively, but which is better, Morph or Rumpole. There's only one way to find out, fiiight..... er poll.

Who is better, Morph or Rumpole?
	Rumpole of course, his legal brilliance and wit were employed to defend the rights of the underdog.
	Morph, he's made of plasticine and is very bendy.
	They are both as good as each other.
	They are both rubbish.

Citizen Journalism.

There are many motivations to start a blog but few are as powerful as pure hatred. Take this blog devoted to the twattishness of American TV actor David Caruso (of CSI Miami and NYPD Blue fame). Granted he's an awful actor and comes across as a bit of a numpty but even so devoting two years and over 700 posts to highlighting it shows impressive dedication.

Biggest News Ever!

The new cast of I'm A Celebrity..... has been announced. Norman the local registered sex offender and something of a local celebrity in these parts had turned down an invitation to appear on the show because he thought it would damage his image so the producers have gone down further on the fame ladder such as footballers' girlfriends:

“I’m a dare devil and I’m very sociable and very social. I think at the moment the public’s perception of me is quite moody and quite sporty as well.”

No, the public doesn't have any perception of you and two weeks after the show is over that will be the case still.

I'm A Trendsetter.

On the subject of those two tossers Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross can I just point out that I hated them long before it became fashionable. As I said on another blog in January:

"After Moz left the stage, "celebrity fans" Jonathan Ross, David Walliams and Russell Brand took to the stage to pacify the crowd."

And yet no one had thought to take a hand grenade along in case of this eventuality!

See I was calling for their violent death way before they started bullying an elderly man and his grand daughter!

You Bastards.

The Hollywood Screenwriter's Strike.

It's an ill wind....

Generous & Modest!

The BBC's decision to drop the 'Planet Relief' day has upset some people. It can be said that Al Gore's Live 8 demonstrated that getting pampered celebrities to deliver sanctimonious lectures is a good way to get people's hackles well and truly up. Normally I'd agree, but then you trawl through some entertainment blogs and you soon realise just how special some of our celebrity betters are, such as Canadian pop singer Avril Lavigne who describes her munificence thusly:

"I am a very giving person. When the hurricane thing happened, I went to my closet, filled six boxes of stuff and said to my assistant, 'Take it to Katrina!' I also like to give stuff to people who are my 'workers,' especially if they don't make much money."

It's like Mother Theresa has been reincarnated.

How Stalin Ruined Eurovision.

The silly regional blocks that exist in the Eurovision song Contest's voting have widely been ascribed to some kind of pan slavic solidarity. This doesn't really work as an explanation though because most Eastern European countries hate each other, for example Estonia's recent spat with Russia demonstrates that no love is lost there, yet Estonia gave Russia 12 points.

The problem is that Eastern Europes borders are so arbitary that each country contains large numbers of people whose ethnic allegiance is elsewhere. In the case of Russia, Stalin's policy of moving Russians into other parts of the Soviet Union has all but guaranteed that Russia will pick up votes from it's former subject nations. And look what the bastard did to the Poland, moving it Westwards so Belarus has millions of Poles.


The situation in the Balkans is even more complex, one might even say it is Balkanised.

The only solution to save Eurovision is for the powerful western countries to invade the east and vanquish the slavic scum to create living space for our people. One People. One Nation, One Song! ...... Sorry I got carried away at the end there.

No Politics In Eurovision.

Does anyone believe the results of this survey?:

Performance and lyrics, not politics and diplomacy, will decide this weekend's Eurovision Song Contest, according to one university researcher.

Dr Alan Howard, from Reading University's school of human sciences, has surveyed 1,000 fans of the contest on how they would cast their votes.

In fairness Britain will almost certainly do badly because of the irredeemable crappiness of our entry. Honestly though the level of nationalism and politics on display at the Eurovision Song Contest makes it what the Potsdam conference would have been like if they had had more sequins.
