Haven't looked at this for a while.
It made me laugh.

Let's have a giggle - My Internet sensationalism

Yes I do Google myself from time to time.
Funny how the numbers ramp up and down.

And as Daniel Kitson said last night to his adoring audience at the Battersea Arts Centre "Even you nobodies google yourselves in your little sad worlds, don't deny it" Or words to that effect. Sorry to misquote you Daniel, but that is as well part of your show. Is it not thus? lol
He was brilliant BTW.

But back to me....;) 

At one time I was mentioned 599,000,000 times. That's 599 MILLION times.
Dunno why. A fluke. A glitch in the Googlybox thingy.

But I memorialised it (screenshotting etc) as it was such a phenomenal thing, beating Michael Jackson, Kardashians, Ricky Gervais and Winston flippin Churchill!!

Absolutely ficking crazy my dears.

So I made a vid of the event.

Silence of the trolls

Love the Mary Beard story how she silenced the troll on Twitter.

It was a marvellous piece of publicity too as it flagged up her BBC2 prog yesterday evening on Caligula.
Unfortunately I don't read the news until it's over so I missed the prompt...... I was watching Big Bro. (and how they are all trying to crucify poor Hazel).
Bad scheduling??? lol
It no matter.
Thank clever inventors for the iPlayer. Especially as the Panasonic DVD Recorder I bought 2 years ago has not yet been used. Don't know how to. I bought it in particular to copy from old video cassettes over to DVD. Lots of my old TV appearances so I could make a show-reel.
Why?
Good question. hahahaaa

Anyways..I watched Caligula this morning 'on demand'. Of course it was indeed fascinating and I love the way Mary Beard talks to us in a non-snotty way. She's so lovely and down-to-earth. Like you're having a cuppa across the kitchen table. Bless her, she's so self-conscious when she is being filmed walking along. Her arms don't co-ordinate in the ordinary way.  I totes understand that feeling.  I would much rather be behind the camera than in front of it.
If that comes as a surprise to anybody reading this it just goes to show that the way I come across is deeply different to the way I fundamentally am.  

What fascinated me most about the prog outside the box was that Caligula was only in power for 4 years until his assassination but blimey the amount of building works he did was phenomenal.
Gosh. And that's not a word I use lightly.


Speaking of being behind the camera. Must tell you some Benny Hill stories as it was Ben that first suggested to me that I should get BEHIND the camera..........
To be continued....................
Hahaaaa, tease....

Me in a couple of scenes from the Benny Hill Show

Oh God they've started drilling right above my head now.............gotta go.
No I'm not being trepanned. The aliens did that years back.

Film producer in his 70's with teenage girl

In the 70's I was witness to what I considered to be a disgusting scenario.
A world famous film producer was staying at the Grosvenor House Hotel in Park Lane and with him was a 14 year old girl!!!

I had been to a dinner party at Andy Williams' rented house in Fulham. (he rented Lionel Bart's home).
More later.........
