Could you be Paris Hilton's NBF?

Despite all the hoo-hahing about reality telly being the Death Of All This Nation Holds Dear, I fancy it is something of a public service. After all, it has afforded we plebs with more opportunity for life landmarks – marriage, fame, the opportuni...

Sport, tennis, thwack, cars, sport, run, tennis, rackets, balls, soccer, big cars, whizz whizz, kick, hit, grunt, goal. Even writing that is more interesting than watching the bucket load of sport telly what is on this week. Which is all very ho...

The Friday TV Planner: June 13

Apparently there is some sort of pan-European five-a-side competition going on this week, which Our Boys were too rubbish to qualify for. So spare a thought for The Mens this week, who have to deal with wall-to-wall coverage of a tournament which ...

Tom Cruise celebrates 25 years of himself

Do you know what year it is? Think you that it is 2008AD? I am afraid that is wrong, and I will have to take your first answer. For as anyone who measures the age of the planet by the career milestones of Tom Cruise will know, it is in fact 25ADST...

The Friday TV Planner: June 6

All very sad this week, with only one more episode of The Nick And Margaret show left. Then, we’ll wager, it’ll be Claire who goes off to manage a horribly boring Amstrad project, leaving Alex to live on his charms, Helene to discover a workplace ...
