This Is Not Cool News Posted by Seb Patrick on 7th February 2007, 14:31 We all want Dwarf t-shirts. I'm still desperate for a London Jets one, and one day, I may go down to a t-shirt shop and make one for myself. I don't see anything wrong with that, because it's not making me any money, and I know that I'd buy an official one if such a thing existed. But making money from Cafe Press by selling unofficial merch? Fuck off. Hell, if they were making the shirts themselves, they'd still be exploiting someone else's creativity, but at least they'd be putting some effort in. But this is making money off Dwarf's popularity by putting no effort in whatsoever. Just... no. And if you're going to do it, at least (a) get the font vaguely correct, and (b) learn how to spell "chameleonic". Read more →

Still, late or not, we aim to be completist, so let's have a look at last week's TOS stuff. Read more →

FLIBBLE IS TEH STONED News Posted by John Hoare on 1st February 2007, 06:33 I was sent this yesterday, by a certain Jason Smedley: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jw-q_7oISzQ So, I'll open this out to the floor.

Always wanted to know what Rob Grant’s favourite cover version is? News Posted by Jonathan Capps on 25th January 2007, 14:58 Well, now you know!

Still, at least you know what his favourite cover version is! Thank God for us, yeah? Oh, suit yourselves. Read more →
I KNOW MORE THAN DOUG NAYLOR News Posted by John Hoare on 24th January 2007, 05:49 Or: I don't. Something did occur to me today, though. We all know of a certain kind of sitcom episode - One Foot In The Grave's The Trial, where Victor mopes around the house waiting for an entire half-hour, or Porridge's A Night In, consisting almost entirely of Fletch and Godber in their cell. In other words: those delicious one or two handers, often in real time. And it's no coincidence that the two episodes I mention above are considered to be some of the best of each series. See also: Marooned. So: why didn't they do one for VIII? Just Lister and Rimmer, in their cell? Read more →
