Adam Johnson SACKED by Sunderland
According to the news today he asked for a kiss in return for signing her shirt - and things went on from there. Completely right to sack him. Speaking as a fan though, it might be difficult to replace him. Although he hasn't been the same since the allegations began and now it's pretty clear why.

Feel really sorry for the kids during Shaky's performance. That's a lot of RSI right there.

Buzzjack's Razzies 2015: Tiebreaker Polls
The Peanuts Movie wasn't boring if you like Peanuts. Not sure what people expected of it. I'd have hated it if it had been full of modern jokes.

Round 9: Least Favourite David Bowie Album
Yeah, buzz jack polls are a bit weird (look at the Prodigy one happening now where Firestarter was kicked out near the start) - and look...someone has voted for Low here. What!?!?!

Top of the Pops on BBC4
Roger Daltrey was 37 when that was filmed, yet he looks in his 50s. The 70s must have been tough ;)

Dickensian
Tried hard at the start but has failed quite badly I feel. Far too ambitious and yet so unambitious. Finally decided to stop watching after 15 episodes and if I hear Caroline Quentin say "Bumble" or Pauline Collins say "gin" one more time I will scream.

and really glad I did watch the last episode as it was terrific!

Rating David Bowie's Top 50 Hits! - The Results
Man, no way does The Laughing Gnome deserve to be down there. I like Bowie's Antony Newley phase then, but I've always been a sucker for novelty records.

Dance Chart Number Ones 1990 - 1999
Indeed! Difficult to get hold of too as it wasn't on an album.

Dance Chart Number Ones 1990 - 1999
Indeed they had produced much better stuff before Setting Sun too...Leave Home still sounds huge! No mention of the similarities to the Beatles' Tomorrow Never Knows? And, yes, Oasis were gigantic in 1996. Mainly because of the quality of the B-sides to the earlier singles. Setting Sun is a bit of a watershed as Oasis just stopped trying after it...although some would argue they stopped trying after Some Might Say got them their first number one.

But the man has a brain too!!! Oh well, I managed to keep out of last place, just :)

Aw, I quite like Beggar and Co. There's no disputing their musicianship, even if they do like to odd whip round.

Least Favourite Disney Animated Classic Round 30
Looks like Beauty and the Beast will finally go after 30 rounds of me voting for it :D :D :D :D

Top of the Pops on BBC4
They also culled Talking Heads from the shorter show. No idea why they ditched a great song and two faces of the era in Toyah and Shaky when they could have zapped a terrible Phil Collins track and a boring Kool and the Gang one. I think Coast to Coast was a Mike Reid request - how much does he love that song? Fun to see him dancing with the kids though.

Massive Attack "Ritual Spirit EP"
It's quite good. My favourite is Take Me There. Nice to have the original line-up back together again.
-
PJ Harvey 'Hope Six Demolition Project'
I like The Wheel too :D

Least Favourite Disney Animated Classic Round 29
Three average and one rubbish film left so I'll go or the rubbish one yet again.

Oops, I meant not watch ever again after it finishes! Of course I'll watch the last episode!

The BRIT Awards 2016
If the public voted for every award then they'd get Best British Female too.

Silly Movies
I much prefer Le Diner De Cons, but a great and funny story nevertheless. LDDC is minute for minute the funniest film I've ever seen. The problem with Dinner for Schmucks is that they actually make it to the dinner!

Dance Chart Number Ones 1990 - 1999
What's weird about not liking Robert Miles? The melody is so simple it's practically a nursery rhyme. Good dance music should have a bit of depth.

Ha! Yes, I did answer with a body part :D
