A bit off topic, but can anyone remember the name of the characters that Andi Oeters and some young lad took on, on Going Live or Live & Kickjng? Usually filmed outside Broadcasting House, he and this lad wore long sheepskin coats or Macs and were like cockney dodgy traders. A bit Dell’boy-ish. I wonderecwhat that lad was doing now as he was so young that for some reason I occasionally remember him and wonder if he is still on TV. |

I remember Trevor and Simon being funny, but I did wonder if part of that was because as a kid, everything seemed great (nostalgia, eh). I was going to watch some videos of Trevor and Simon on youtube to see if my young self was a fool (or my memory corrupted), but ended up watching Dick and Dom playing that 'bogies' shouting game instead. Crass, yes, stupid too, but really really funny. |

Anyway such humour is clearly wasted on the masses, a colleague in work didn't even know they'd done a song called 'Zombie' and just accused me of picking 'some random obscure song' to make a 'shit joke', and I'm like 'It got to Number 1 you fuckbag, although you were probably too busy listening to Crosby & Nash to notice'.

Indeed, it's probably the only song I know by them. It's certainly the only song I know is by then. |

Ste Pickford paid tribute to him on Faceballs this morning. (I've had him as a friend for years due to something related to Naked War I can't remember the specific details of. I am pleased to report that he seems to be a genuinely decent chap, as you'd want your 8-bit heroes to be.) (My Facebook profile pic is the hand-drawn portrait of me that Ste did for my Naked War plaque (signed by both of them!), which the Pickfords sent me for being the second player in the world to reach the rank of Field Marshall in Naked War.)

Ursula K le Guin. Haven’t read all her work, but what I have, I’ve enjoyed a lot. She was always delightful in interviews as well. Even if you haven’t read her work there’s a chance you may have seen a manga or anime film inspired by it. |

Probably my second favourite sci-fi writer after PKD. She also seemed like a great person.

Shame to see him go, but by all accounts he really wasn't the nicest chap at all. Some great music left behind though. I had their track 'Blindness' on Chopley's Awesome Playlist up until a couple of weeks ago (where he was clearly so pissed for the recording he couldn't pronounce 'cavalry' and took about three shots at the word), changed it to their cover of 'Lost in Music' when it appeared on my 'Discover Weekly' list on Spotify. He would be a guest on Radcliffe and Maconie's Radio 6 show from time to time, always smashed out of his head and invariably dropping the f-bomb at 3pm in the afternoon at some point, so they'd have to profusely apologise afterwards. |

Would guess he would get the best part of his plea deal sentence so 7 years, then as a celebrity sex offender he would have been locked up 23 hours a day with one hour exercise. No guarantee he would see daylight for his sentence either as a lot of the exercise areas are underground. When he got out it would be sex offenders register for life with heavy restrictions on where he could go and live. Little sympathy really, every one of the 50,000 pictures he had was a horror story for children and their families |
