I bring you 'In Bed With Chris Needham'

From the 1992 BBC2 'Teenage Diaries' video diary series we follow Chris as he puts together his band Manslaughter (later redubbed 'Manslorter' as people thought they were called 'Man's Laughter') while struggling with the day to day problems of teenage life in Loughborough. It's a terribly sweet film, bless him, and utterly utterly hilarious.

The Guardian reports that Babyshambles have been stopped from performing at a festival:

"Experts are telling us that the profile of fans that follow Pete Doherty and Babyshambles is volatile and they can easily be whipped up into a frenzy, whereas the profile of someone that would follow around Cliff Richard or Bucks Fizz, for example, is completely different."

You what?

Always just a little bit underrated and over shadowed by the Theme From Shaft - but Hot Buttered Soul is easily one of the greatest soul albums ever. Shame to see him go.

No, not THAT one.

"It takes something special to fill the gap left by Danny in the summer and this is it," said BBC London 94.9 assistant editor Justin Kings.

"Mitch Winehouse is a listener to and friend of the station. We're delighted he's agreed to a show the other side of the microphone for a change."

But I recall that Mitch Winehouse made some fans here with a recent performance at some ceremony or other. And now's your chance to see if he lives up to your expectations - he's on on the 1st September. The rest of the stand ins are here..

But I've just found this marvellous doohickey:

It's the car chase from Bullitt, showing in a window on the left, whilst the locations of the cars in the chase are shown in sync in a Google Earth window on the right. Oooh!

Now, I know that there's no UK teams in the European Championships - but maybe you have cast a cursory eye over the coverage.

Since when has 'Seven Nation Army' been a football chant? They're all at it, fans from all over the shop. They're not even singing words to it, just 'DURR dur DUR DUR DUR DURRR DURR' over and over again. Why on earth have they settled on this?

Following the mixed success of the recent 1980s revival (jumpsuits back in fashion, indeed) it's time we started planning the 1990s revival, probably due to kick in about five years time or so.
What do you think the key items that the kids of 2013 will be picking from that decade to sum it up?

Pagers - the more retro kids will be sporting devices that tell you to find a payphone and call a number
The X Files - David Duchovny is 'The Hoff' of the '10s
The Easy Listening revival - to revived as part of the revival
Select Magazine - 'No, seriously, my dad bought the one with Suede on the cover when it came out!'

Anything to add?
