01) The Delays - Valentine Amazingly the best pop song of the year didn’t come from Girls Aloud or Sugababes but from a long-haired indie band. Valentine is just an astounding single… Read More

21) Screen WipeCharlie Brooker is without a doubt, the most truthful TV critic there is. His Screen Wipe book is offensively hilarious and his TV show, buried away on BBC4, is just as colour… Read More

I know it's a bit late but how tragically funny was Sunday's Totally Boyband with the knowledge that their debut single "The One" had only managed to reach #35 in the charts. Whether it was… Read More

Some thoughts on this week's pitiful X-Factor.- Thank God the British public saw sense and finally voted Ashley in the bottom two. The only reason he seemed to be there in the first place wa… Read More
