Might give Peter Peter Serafinowicz's radio show another go, this week he's got Matt Berry, The Actor Kevin Eldon and Terence Stamp on. Edit: Trailers for ads? Full page ads for a an ad inside the product that the ad is advertising?

Jesus, I knew The Guardian were self important, but that's ridiculous. A trailer and several full page ads for a loving Tv spot?

Yeah, the same paper that constantly whinged about the Xmas ads (such as the John Lewis one) being turned into 'events'.

I seem to remember quite a few articles moaning about it. Anyway, I guess they're getting a bit desperate, since the Guardian loses something like £10k a day and is kinda hosed.

The mini-ads in the paper today were pretty clever, showing the Three Little Pigs story on all the different apps, in obituaries and corrections. If they'd left it at that it would have been cool, but then they shoved in a stupidly pompous double page and....urggggh. It's so self-congratulatory.

Oh hey, White Van Mans second series is on iPlayer. Nobody said anything about it airing recently. Also, when is Brookers Touching Cloth going to happen?

God, David Starkey is a horrible person and a real-life troll on Any Questions. Its compulsive viewing, but for all the wrong reasons.

Anybody been watching the Indian Doctor this week? Some good fun nothingness and nice to have something different in the telly for the unemployed slots. Also Mark Heap. I vaguely remember enjoying the first series too, but had completely forgotten about it before this series started.

I've caught up with the second ep. of Homeland and I've got to say, it's pretty gripping. Much less military fetish wankery and much more moral ambiguity than I'd have expected.

It really gets going after they go to the cabin. Really enjoyed it throughout. If you sat down, you could pick holes in it, but it's too much fun to do that.

I'm quite surprised that Pointless Celebrities actually had some real famous people rather than the usual z-listers that usually go on celebrity editions.

I dreamt last night that I opened my wallet and there were Bank of England £20 notes and Brian Blessed was on the back of them. I was really sad to wake up. I thought this would be the best place to share that.

Well, since he would be king, he could be "King Brian The Blessed". Also, on every banknote with his face, underneath the quote should be "GORDON'S ALIVEEE!"

He's a 70-odd year old man who's climbed Everest against doctors' recommendations and thrived. He's going to be space pope.

He should be King of Mars, gonna build some cities of gold on it, maybe breed a legion of winged Amazonians to attack Earth with or something.

There was a question set on University Challenge based on Wikipedia edit-wars. Also Manchester is stomping Worcester College Oxford 105-0  e: 115-0 e: 240-65. For a while it looked like it was going to be a total shut-out. Mr. Squishy fucked around with this message at 21:31 on Mar 5, 2012 |

I wasn't sure at first, but when the episode ended I realised I'd actually really enjoyed it once I'd warmed to it. I've not actually read the books, so I don't know how that'd colour my opinion if I had. Will watch the next two parts, anyway.

The only good series of Skins was the first. The rest is awful and has become very formulaic. "Well it's the second series of this generation, which one are we giving a mental illness this time?"
