Oh god, Keith has squeezed out another retro article. Dare I read it?

Oh it's even better than that. They SWITCH to English two thirds of the way through. Which indicates a level of planning as they'd have to agree what point to switch.

I think it was Bobbysocks in 1985 who had to sing in Norwiegen, won it and as a massive "fuck you" came out at the end and sang it in English.

And come to think of it the UK entry was WELSH and she sang in ENGLISH.

DISQUALIFY EMMA. MAYWOOD SHOULD BE 14th!

Actually there is a touch of real conspiracy as after Abba people were forced to sing in their own language. And it wouldn't be like the ladies were suddenly opting to sing in English given their recording history.

This song was not the 15th best song at Eurovision 1990 but there was EBU conspiracy to ensure the UK finished 9 places ahead of it because the BBC are nonces and the UK singer was 15 years old. It would have been 14th.

Noel Gordon was sacked from Crossroads as she'd spent the previous 3 years sucking a wasp and making everyones life a bloody misery. The Russell T Davies thing where he claims she was too powerful and it was men forcing her out is a total lie.

Oh wait no, that's the actual truth.

S3 of #TheTripods was axed in order to un-cancel Doctor Who in 85, an 18 month 'hiatus' was never the plan. DW was gone. Finito. Budget reallocated to EastEnders. But controversy erupts and must be made to go away. So a run of 25min eps of SciFi with OB for autumn Saturdays in 86 were reassigned.

This month Keith Harris and pals are joined by their natural onscreen foil Grotbags. There's also one of the longest tenured Brookside stars, and perhaps the panto industry's most fascinating and beloved producer.

Just sent an email to a client with the line "when we know the date I'll book a motel".

Look, I know the Amsglasses are chunkier than their competitors, but they are feature packed and cost a third less than their competitors. Rumours the lenses are plastic and they lead to permeant eye damage are untrue and Amstrad will take legal action against those who spread these falsehoods.

Where can I go to download games? Do I put them on a USB stick? Looking for some of my favourites from the 80's like Bridge-It, Outrun, Count Duckula 2, Roland on the Run, and beyond! Still have my collection of Floppy Discs from the 80s but no idea if they still work!
