They mocked every Labour leader I can remember, from Harold Wilson onwards. It didn't necessarily stop them from winning elections.

If Corbyn was bad for the Labour Party the overwhelmingly right-wing press would not be complaining about him as loudly as they are. It was Brown and Miliband who were a disaster for the Labour Party and there is every reason to think their preferred successor would be too.

Modern Life is still Good-ish as Dave Gorman gets two more series Dave Gorman will be back on Dave for more, as Modern Life Is Goodish has been renewed. The show will go into production in 2016 and 2017 for two more eight-episode series. The upcoming third series is scheduled for autumn.

I just watched the first episode and found it tedious and predictable. There was nothing about it which made me want to watch another.

I think it was George Bernard Shaw who said "The British winter finally ends on July 31st only to begin again on August 1st".

You would have to have been born in 1940s to be allowed to buy Pensioner Bonds and also to enjoy the many other retirement benefits that pensioners are entitled to. People born in the 1950s have had to endure overcrowded schools, several recessions, mass unemployment, bedroom tax, the gradual...

Two Virgin Media broadband adverts have been banned by the advertising watchdog for misleading consumers. Since January 2014, companies are supposed to give customers one month's written notice of any mid-contract price increases, and the right to terminate the contract for free. Virgin...

In addition to BT Sport Ultra HD you also need BT Infinity 2 which is not available in central parts of Coventry (ie: where Virgin is available) although many outlying areas can get it. BT Infinity 2 is £30 per month + £16.99 line rental so total cost is £61.99 per month.

Also heavily pregnant! ;)

BT is bringing the first 4K live sports channel to UK TV screens next month, and it's finally let us in on how much it's going to cost. BT Sport Ultra HD will begin broadcasting August 2nd, kicking off proceedings with an FA Community Shield footy match between Arsenal and Chelsea. There are...

England Football Team, Berlin 1938. Can we bury this subject now?

Its long been known that Edward VIII was a supporter of Hitler before the war, it was nothing unusual at the time. London streets were even draped with swastika flags for the funeral procession of the German ambassador to Britain. Many members of the British aristocracy held fascist beliefs...

I hate having to walk anywhere because I can't breathe properly in warm weather and am covered in sweat when I get home. I hate having cold meals because it's too hot for fish & chips. I hate that it doesn't get dark till late so I can't play my videos at full blast. I hate that all the best...

I thought it was heavy going at first and limited myself to just one episode per week, even though I could have viewed more.

Yes, it was all over Facebook and Twitter I believe, as was the daughter burning last week.

I was searching for the latest videogame sales chart and there were links to five GoT stories on the same page. I'd even gone to the trouble of unsubscribing from one GoT forum so as not to accidentally click on an email update like I did last week.

I spent most of Monday desperately trying to avoid spoilers on various websites. You would think UK-based websites would impose a moratorium on GoT news reports at least until Sky Atlantic viewers have had a chance to watch the latest episode but no, they insist on publishing articles with...

Birmingham. Friendliest women I've ever met (and the most reasonably priced). :p

I'm not too bothered whether it's League 1 or Premiership but I won't be doing two prediction leagues at the same time.

Yes. I cried with joy at the end, I've never done that before. Hardhome was 45 mins of people making long speeches followed by 15 mins of a 'Lord of the Rings' type battle. Not saying it wasn't great just not as great as The Dance of Dragons.
