lastorders 15 Posted November 24, 2010 The well-lit but essentially dull Ready Steady Cook is soon to be toast. Yes? Oh, sorry, I thought you called me. Ready Steady Cook, eh. My cousin's missus went on that once. I love the "inane" sley Harriott quote "It came along at a time when we were still a bit naive about cooking in this country" You're either naive or bonkers if you think you're qualified to judge other people while still dishing up Cuppa Soups and other processed crap that you just add boiling water to.

harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,689 Posted November 25, 2010 Henryk Gorecki The Polish composer, whose Symphony No.3, "Symphony of Sorrowful Songs" made the Pop Charts in 1992, has died aged 76. Who's death prompts BBC Four to conveniently drop a documentary on Diana's infamous Panorama interview... I checked back through my emails and the two Di programmes were dropped last Thursday morning, two days after the wedding announcement. So your conspiracy theory may well hold water, if that's what you meant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,536 Posted November 27, 2010 Palle Huld has died aged 98. He was the original inspiration for the character of Tintin, although just in the sense of being a boy travelling the world having adventures, rather than being a massive racist..

VSBfromH 74 Posted November 29, 2010 Oscar-nominated Italian director Mario Monicelli has killed himself by jumping from the 5th floor window of a hospital where he was being treated. Quite a feat for a 95 year old! "Monicelli was widely considered the 'father' of the so-called Comedia all'italiana (Comedy Italian style) school of cinema which specialised in bitter-sweet story lines ... Monicelli won the Venice Film Festival's Golden Lion top prize for 1959's La Grande Guerra which was also nominated for an Academy Award." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
