|1 min

I can't get the song Rock Me Amadeus out of my head. I only vaguely remember it from the 80s (I think I was about 7), but I saw it the other night on C4, and then downloaded the song.

Charlie Brooker’s Screenwipe

|1 min

I discovered this program recently on YouTube. Charlie Brooker is a misanthropic British guy who makes a TV program all about television. I find this kind of British humour really refreshing, but that could just be because I like swearing.
