Regarding that Wabi Sabi programme, I dunno. It seems quite interesting if you ask me. Hardly typical though. Surely it'd need a celebrity chef, an interactive public phone-vote element and Vernon Kay to be that.

Yes. I was trying to create a false impression of British television, that we don't entertain ourselves by bathing our minds in turds like everyone else.

there should be a program that's nothing but computer screens being degaused.

i wonder if you took a bunch of celebrities against their will, locked them all in a room and filmed them, if anyone would complain about their rights or call the police?

Date My Mum and Sweet 16 are the worst. As he and Hicks said "I'm down on my knees praying for a nuclear holocaust!"

I still can't believe she's gone - I'm expecting her to rise on the third day, live on Sky News.

If not... well, as she passed away on Mother's Day, we should start calling it Jade's Day. And pass 'Jade's Law' and make the cervical cancer jab compulsory (even for men).

My nieces fucking love lazy town. I generally need a good long sit down and a frown after watching it. Worse than candyflips and absinthe.

On the other hand, I generally get a bus to the police station and stand around with my wrists aloft after watching sweet 16.
