Coo...wasn't Samantha Janus good* in 'stenders tonight?
Wish they'd stop running people over on that tiny strip of road though - it's getting a bit silly...
(*NB - These are not words I ever envisaged would come out of my mouth...)

Here's a very lengthy and entertaining interview with Chris Needham. 'In Bed With Chris Needham' is still freely viewable on YouTube. Yay!

BBC1's original Neighbours trailer - stay tuned for a They'd Never Say That Nowadays lead in to Blankety Blank. Priceless.

Lee pointed us towards Cassetteboy's cut-up of The Apprentice on YouTube - watch it now, as a prelude to the finale, it's fantastic.

This is an odd one: long-form adverts for Audi disguised as documentaries in which various art/celeb types (Peter Saville, Iain Sinclair&Chris Petit, Lucy Porter, Robin Ince) go off on tours, to gigs, down memory lane etc in an Audi car... (Click on the Entertaiment section: you can select short 2 minute previews docs, or full 20+ minute ones). Seems to be an Audi channel on Sky that shows all this. The documentary content is fine, it's just the weird constant product placement that's hard to handle!

Aussie comedy troupe The Chasers War On Everything precede The Flight Of The Conchords on BBC4 later: odds-on they won't include this sketch that got their show pulled off air recently.

Who needs sunlight? Almost everything Channel 4 ever made is currently on 4OD. Hibernate!

Did anyone watch School Of Saatchi when it started last night? Next Monday's show is all about constructing large artworks on Hastings seafront (you may have seen the trailer). This completely passed me by in reality. Didn't even notice the Hastings Observer pick up on it. Does anyone know when the artworks and filming were actually done (assuming, from the trailers & press photos, that it can't be happening right now)?

The BBC Archive turns its attention to Tomorrow's World: several full episodes (including the 1965 first show) and lots of individual features ('Home Computer' 1967, 'Moog Synthesiser' 1969 etc)
