I am 44 years old and I've only just found out I was watching Happy Gilmore edited when growing up in the UK.

Incredible scenes as Terf.K Rowling finally acknowledges that Graham Linehan exists…but he can’t tweet about it due to bail conditions. The best and worst day of his life

So, Trumpy has honoured Crawford because he liked Phantom back in the 80s.... What if it's because he actually REALLY likes that episode of Some Mother's Do 'Ave 'Em where Frank ends up on roller skates.

Film critic David Stratton dies aged 85 His family announced his death on Thursday afternoon, saying he died peacefully in hospital near his home in the Blue Mountains.

Well, there he goes. Greatest Australian film critic of all time. Changed the industry. Changed the culture. Sure as hell changed me.

The military and federal law enforcement are occupying our nations capital in a brazen display of petty authoritarianism and no one is doing anything about it. There are no protests, there are no politicians or institutions speaking up.

We're cooked. There's nothing stopping this fascism.

This 20 seconds is pure art. It’s like the essence of Trump - the fraud, the lies, the simplistic idiocy - is reduced to its singularity.

Nothing in high office, anywhere, will ever be this stupid again.

US air force denies early retirement for transgender service members Move targets trans air force members with 15-18 years of service and forces them out the US military with no benefits

This is the thanks they get for serving their country, unlike the cowardly Cadet Bone Spurs. And this is just how much Trump respects our military.

"God, what was it called... RINGO?!!! it was called Ringo...."

"Seems obvious in hindsight..."

"He was the drummer in the Beatles."

"Ringo! 2028!"

Slow version of octopus's garden playing over the trailer

"Before Thomas..."

"Before... Well, you know..."

"The other thing..."

"The other thing he did after the Beatles..."

"No, come on. You do know. The other thing... The OTHER thing. He was in dungarees and his album was called..."

Speaking of Sam Mendes, do you reckon Barry Keoghan is resigned to the fact that no one gives a shit about a Ringo Starr biopic?
