The Invisible Jopijedd Erasmus

Just to say, if you find yourself chewing one of those pigs ears from the market, then you're probably going too far.

Baxter Dury dancing like Eddie and Richie during the end credits of Bottom is very disconcerting. #Later

I've just seen sixty seconds of the Tom Daley Great British Knitting Bee Off Race UK. It's every reality show cliche in the book of knitting patterns.

Very sad to see her go. That last routine was amazing and a huge achievement.

73. Easterhouse - Whistling In The Dark (Rough Trade) All the singles to top the NME Indie Charts since its launch in 1981, complete with an overview of the other music in the charts each week.

Blog update: The first new NME Indie Chart number one of 1986 was by the great hopefuls Easterhouse. Despite an early run of press hype, this was where their career peaked - but, in fairness, what a peak. This swings and punches with panache.

Poor rats.

Yes, the Friday night reruns on BBC Four. We're in 1998 at the moment, which feels like a bit of a chore and the producers kept choosing the generic stuff and repeats over the more interesting things that broke through into the top twenty.

Bleak Sunday to you all x

Morning Afterglow was on the chart countdown at 19, which we didn't get to hear having instead endured 25 minutes of toss instead.

Now awake for the Big Girls in Boots episode of #totp

It's been a heavy old Saturday. Got up early, showered, had an absolute battering from the Osteopath, big shop, down to parents to move furniture, came back home to clear space for new broadbanding next week, the cooked tea. As such, i make no apologies for falling asleep during Strictly.

A movie you've seen more than 7 times with a GIF.

Our local very non league team drew Norwich at home a few years back. ITV showed it and the language was persistently appalling throughout. We lost 7-0, but I've never been so proud of the village.

Definitely AI. The randomised lipsync alone gives it away.

This is fascinating. There's more of Underworld (as we know them today) here than there was on the first two Underworld albums.

Broken News didn't work tremendously well, mainly because it missed out on a lot of the ludicrous feature sections that were the cornerstone parodies of Sunday Format. But it's a pretty decent piece of work for my money.

I think i may currently be hawking a couple of Simon May's production library albums on eBay, so i think he's EXCELLENT and you're all WRONG and should go and buy his albums. #totp

I've just send my postcard in. I have suggested they are called "DANCERS". #totp

I'm still sat here giggling at this because it's so delightfully silly.

I hear @chinnyvision.bsky.social has binned off his Maywood collection....

ITV Chart Show Facts:
VIDEO: Leo recently saw the video for Bohemian Rhapsody and liked the lighting so much, he ripped them off in this video.
MISC: Leo's hair is insured for £100 by Legal & General.

Sorry, that was the point i was cackhandedly trying to make - i struggle to believe that anybody's going to look back on a lot of today's fashions with much fondness.

One Foot in the Grant. An absolute sitter.

Justin has a new book out. It's about pop in the 80s and called "Into The Groove". You won't hear a bad word about it. Don't make him plug it again. #totp

The fact that it's a look which has had a strong renaissance tells you that you weren't that far off back then. Nobody is going to look back on 2025 and say "i loved my brown tracksuit and white crocs".

Booty Call is one of the worst records ever to reach number one. #totp

This song is all the blandest bits of Shirley Crow's other songs stitched together. #totp

Nurse! Shirley Crow is singing her song again! #totp

I see the stylists have got Jennifer Paige as "Late 90s One Hit Wonder" absolutely fucking spot on. #totp

Somewhat disappointed that both Sash!'s best song and Electrasy got ignored so we could have The Corrs Lites on again. #totp
