Half a dozen BAFTAs, two Emmys, two Oscars, a Golden Globe, a Laurence Olivier, a DBE, a cancerous bowel in the not-too-distant past and an ominous silence since pulling out of a Channel 4 drama in March due to "ill health". Fucking legend, fucking Deathlisty.

^ Voting up a lot of bland bollocks, apparently.

Yes, please do long out this game. The 10s has a lot of catching up to do!

Wouldn't have thought so. Music taste mostly has no age. Not all youngsters are into hippity hop and wrap and bubble gum popular music.

Reform campaign going well in Norfolk.

A facepalm not for the content in your response, of which every single word was spot on, but for quoting the Crembecile.

15th June a copypasta of 20th October.

Some of the crowd-pleasing stuff is alright, much of it isn't. As I say, Gimme Gimme Gimme is fine, Waterloo, SOS, The Name Of The Game. But Day Before You Came is leagues ahead of that stuff. It's utterly gorgeous. Winner leaves me cold. Dancing Queen is irritating. Mamma Mia has been ruined by one of the worst films ever. Take A Chance is woeful. Chiquitita is dull. A lot of their stuff is karaoke fodder, and karaoke can be a laugh, but the songs *everyone* bloody picks are never the good'uns.

ABBA are very hit and miss for me. Angeleyes and Voulez-Vous are poor, The Winner Takes It All does absolutely nothing for me, Gimme Gimme Gimme is middling. The Day Before You Came, however, is such a work of art. Eaaasily their best song imo.

Ah yes, 2015. NF had resigned, Prick Clegg had resigned, then Ed Miliband resigned while they were filming. And to think that was seen back then as a chaotic day in politics!

Tbh I think they will eventually, but this is something they’ll keep in their back pocket until it looks like they’re running out of steam. I’d expect them to back a change to the voting system (and subsequently offer a referendum on it) late into their second term at the earliest, unless a pro-PR party becomes the official opposition and becomes increasingly popular.

If Reform get anything, it’ll be Clacton and that’s it. Leave alone the likes of Torridge and Wellingborough, the notion of Ashfield voting for Lee Anderson again is laughable.

No idea what they're on about, Trump looks so much better for his age

Luckily enough, Penny Meltdown expertly exposed all their secret plans in the ITV debate. "Hire taxis, hire taxis, hire taxis, hire taxis, hire taxis, hire taxis"
