Dr Nigel Mellor is a bit confused about the revolving door for actors in cop dramas We’ve got a severe case of CSI : Crime Series Interference. Unfortunately our recorder can only handle one show at a time, which means we watch one, save one, get one on catch up and watch the news in the middle. So sometimes we’re watching three or four at once. Now, Annie’s dead, which is awful ‘cos she’s gorgeous and she’s been in everything...

Zoe Lyons’ 'LITTLE MISFIT’ UK tour started on 5th October and ends on 4th December. We met up with her for a quick chat... What is your show about? My show this year is loosely based on the idea of not belonging to any particular tribe. I will always have a idea to use as the spine of the show to hang different routines from. I really like it when I am putting a show together, because it is like...

Four members of the Made in Chelsea production crew crash landed in the Pacific Ocean as the cast headed to film a special in Costa Rica. The production plane crashed over the Pacific en route to Central america while the rest of the cast and crew were flying to a luxury resort separately. However, they will be flying back to the UK "as soon as possible" after the shoot was abandoned. The small Cessna 210 Centurion plane was carrying two senior producers and...

A hiker decided to do the three peak challenge, a gruelling 50 miles across rough terrain and as you can imagine, three tall peaks. So far, nothing out of the ordinary, but this guy did it with a fridge full of beer on his back. Matthew Bamber, 42 somehow got through the mission in under twenty four hours, which is unbelievable. The fridge, a Hotpoint for all you refrigerator fanatics out there, weighed a colossal 30kg, and was strapped to...

London SketchFest returns for its fourth annual festival on 5th & 6th November 2016 at Hackney House in Shoreditch. The festival showcases the best up-and-coming comedy talent and is becoming the biggest alternative comedy festival for launching new and emerging comedians. We caught up with the organisers for a chat. Can you tell me more about SketchFest and how it came about? Sketch comedy has a long history in Britain, from Monty Python to The League of Gentleman but for...

I was stood waiting for a train on platform 14 at Manchester Piccadilly station about 10 years ago. I was going to see my Mum who was in hospital in Chester, she was not very well at all, I was very worried about her. Whilst on the platform, I noticed a lady standing quietly by the entry to the waiting room wearing a raincoat, and clutching a handbag. She had perfectly set hair, like ladies of a certain age and...

Olivier nominated actress and west end star of Kinky Boots Amy Lennox will play the lead role ‘Elly’ in the new Bowie’s Lazarus show at King’s Cross Theatre. Can you give us any details on what to expect for David Bowie’s Lazarus theatre show? It’s loosely based on the sci-fi novel “The man who fell to Earth” by Walter Tevis- a kind of sequel. It’s difficult to describe in a nutshell (you’ll know exactly what I mean when you see...

For a reason that I can't identify though accept to be stupid, my first listen of the new Nitkowski album came part way through reading a review of a festival I organised last month. Why I chose to pit two opposing centres of concentration against each other is beyond me. More understandable however, is how the sonic information passed to me from the north-east London four-piece kicked me off my reading, the two unable to exist concurrently, the frontier of...
