In 1989, Renault chose to advertise their new Renault 21 with this frankly incredible homage to Scarred for Life Year Zero programme The Prisoner. Enn Reitel stands in for Patrick McGoohan's voice at the end. They tried to get the man himself, and I can imagine how well that conversation went...

Crisps stolen in break-in Thieves broke into a Mid Wales football club's refresh- ments hut and stole two packets of crisps. The incident happened at Newtown Football Club's Latham Park ground on between 7pm on February 26 and 10am the following day. Dyfed-Powys Police said anybody with information should call 101.
Mid-wales is a lawless place. It’s not like Gwynedd.
Indeed!

From LA, via Armenia to Muswell Hill and the three piec, Girl Ray. Everybody‘s Saying That is a proper bouncy pop song with a catchy hook and a sense of fun.

Back to Eurovision, showing that while it’s always a political theatr, it also gives us some amazing songs. Cornelia Jakobs should have won, but didn’t. Very much the story of songs from the contest that stay with me.

Down to Brighton now. Don’t worry, it’s not Norman Cook. The absolutely terrible name of Porridge Radio doesn’t take away from this angry fuck you to an ex.

Some straightforward electo-pop from Norway now. Karin Park has all the ingredients to be a massive smash hit artist, except the luck, I presume.
