What TV are you watching?

I think that would have preferable, in fact Ronnie Pickering would have been better

Who?

You should have heard Ronnie Wood trying to sing on the Hootenanny.

While he was on I was thinking that I've heard much better at house parties.
Although that is becoming rarer as time passes too.

As time passes, there must be a real risk of someone who's on the hootenanny passing between recording and broadcast.

Last night's BBC New Year Music thing, Ronan Keating & Friends, what a load of utter dross, his singing sounds like a Billy Goat trapped in a barbed wire electric fence, went on to destroy songs by Garth Brookes & George Michael amongst others, comeback Jools Holland, all is forgiven

As per the above, a quite accurate summary of Mr Keating's efforts last night, I believe

all I could think of was the tale Spike Milligan tells in his war memoirs of "Bloody Awful" when the concert party were entertaining the troops in Italy, and someone kept appearing all over the Theatre shouting "It's bloody Awful" trying to dodge getting thrown out, and even after getting thrown out, re-appeared through the fire exit shouting "it's still Bloody Awful" if that's the best the BBC can manage, might I suggest next year, they just don't bother , as "Bloody Awful" was all Ronan "Karaoke" Keating deserves.

That's all they can afford since I binned the licence.

We've just started watching comedy time travelling show "future man" on netflix. A janitor obsessed with video games defeats the final level of an impossibly difficult game only to discover it is a test by future time travelling freedom fighters to select their hero-saviour. The show is extremely crude, puerile but also clever and funny with first rate cast and writing filled with knowing nods to other films; the protagonist even explicitly mentions "the last starfighter" when the future warriors explain his role.

Great fun and recommended.
