I read a blurb about a TV show about badly behaved dogs and it said 'Alexandra Burke is having trouble with her chihuahua...' Does anyone else think about something other than a pet dog. Or is it... ...
Following his recent passing, much was made of the 'genius' of Mike Yarwood, and his record-breaking viewing figures. I suspect this tribute will show that his shows have not aged well at... ...
Just heard her laugh described as 'wonderful and infectious'. Is it me? It may be 'infectious', but so is typhoid!! I can't do with her, her 'positive' big woman 'image', her gormless Brummie accent,... ...

It's the same piece as in the Arnie dance sequence on True Lies....
