Stuart Mitchell comedian, has over 50 million views on TikTok. That’s not a typo. Fifty million. For a Scottish bloke doing observational comedy about everyday nonsense.

Watched a Monty Python sketch last week and it occurred to me: Michael Palin young was a sheer genius. Not the travel presenter Michael we know now at 82, but the lanky comedy writer from Sheffield who helped revolutionise British humour.

You know Shakira, right? The “hips don’t lie” woman, the World Cup anthem singer and also a very famous Latin pop star. But I bet you’ve never heard of Nidia del Carmen Ripoll Torrado. That’s her mum. And really, without Nidia, there probably would be no Shakira. Nidia’s not on Instagram. She doesn’t do interviews. She’s not […]
My sister rang me last Tuesday. “Did Mel C ever get married?” Random question at 9 pm, but alright. I had no clue, so I googled it whilst she was still on the phone. Turns out, is Melanie C married? Nope. Never has been, never wanted to be. She told The Sunday Times in 2022 […]

Lily Allen and David Harbour seemed like one of those couples that actually worked. British pop star, American actor. Got married in Vegas with Elvis officiating. Then it all went to hell. Lily Allen new album dropped in October 2025. It’s called “West End Girl” and it’s brutal. Eight months after their split, she’s put […]

I switched on TalkTV on Wednesday morning, expecting to hear Mike Graham on his usual Morning Glory show. Instead, there’s Jeremy Kyle sat in his chair. Thought I’d got the wrong channel for a second. Then I checked Mike Graham’s Twitter and saw the absolute carnage. Turns out Mike Graham posted something properly racist on […]
