I've long had the dream of doing a Shipping Forecast charity album. Proceeds could go to the RNLI or something. Bascially, it'd be Shipping Forecasts read by people with cool voices- Diamanda Galas, Henry Rollins, Jello Biafra... unfortunately I always dreamed of John Peel being the voice on the single, but it can't happen now.

This must happen! Is Casey Kasem still alive? He could do a shipping forecast in the voice of 7-Zark-7.

this is one of the great ideas. Can I nominate Steven Fry for a part?

Didn’t Steven Fry actually read a shipping forecast for Comic Relief a few years back?

I might have dreamt that, of course. It sounds like one of mine.

if you did dream that, I don't want to know. I must believe that it exists...

Oh God yes.
Strangely enough, it occurred to me this afternoon that there has never been anyone in the world who could say the word "ARSE" as well as Mr Fry. (Not to mention "that must have hurt, Peter. That must have hurt like hell on a jetski").

Hmm. I was gonna spend the rest of my night watching Terminal Invasion with Bruce motheruckin' Campbell. But now I'm tempted to watch my Fry & Laurie downloads instead...

Oh I hate myself. I've put Big Brother on out of curiosity.

It feels like being really drunk and trying to sleep at a party I really didn't want to go to. I keep catching bits of conversations I don't care about. But to turn it off would mean facing the monster on Doom 3 that I have no chance of killing.

Bruce on DVD may be my only hope. To watch F&L would mean using my computer ant not being able to Shift.

Ain't life grand?

Oh, and I am also TEH HAPPY because, when watching Nathan Barley, I always found it funny because he reminded me, and I mean to an uncanny extent, of a guy I used to know (who once upon a time nicked my girlfriend)... and I've just been out for beers with punji steak, who not only knows the guy I'm talking about, but apparently used to work with him AND CHARLIE BROOKER AT THE SAME TIME. I no longer think it's just me! No wonder I found that show piss-funny...

Whoah. That was totally JG Ballard. They just had a ten second shot of an empty jacuzzi.

I think I'm watching Big Brother all wrong.

ARSE!!! I'm now trying to find my F&L CDs. They must be here somewhere!!!

Nathan Barley nicked your girlfriend? Dude, that’s not a good thing. It's like a punchline IN THE FACE.

Oh. that's fabulous.

Similar story from a friend about having been at college around the same time as Derren 'i'm not called Darren, honest' Brown.

And Matt lucas/David Walliams, who apparently loathed him.

Which puts a slightly different slant on their incredibly annoying 'lookintomyeyeslookintomyeyes' hypnotist, doesn't it?

Resist Big Brother.

RESIST!

'sOK. It's not that hard to resist. (ESPECIALLY seeing as how one of my clients at work is C4, who want ALL COVERAGE on the fucker!!! Oh, and I've found me F&L Cds!)

Funny thing is, the gf in question is still one of my best friends (she was Biscuits's "mum", after all), whereas "Nathan" is someone she really doesn't like talking about. I phoned her when the series first started and said "Whoah! Isn't he TOTALLY ***?" Bad subject, apparently. I think I've spoken to him more recently than she has. That's my problem... too forgiving!

Stoatie, if you're still having trouble finding those CDs, you could always just switch the telly over to ITV or Five, where it's impossible to get away from the bastard and his bid to become the voiceover artist for every advert ever.
 
 
Spatula Clarke
01:22 / 08.06.05
Er, "the bastard" being Hugh Laurie, btw. Should probably have made that clear.

Again, 'sOK. I'm REALLY trying to avoid TV (except Dr Who, obviously. That was the reason I bought one). I'm going to bed now.
Bugger. I was determined to stay awake long enough to see Keggers. Say hi to him if he turns up. G'night!

Sadly Stephen Fry has never read the Shipping forecast. It was Angus Deayton.

"On BBC Radio 4, Angus Deayton reads the shipping forecast for charity, the first time in 71 years that the 5-minute broadcast is not read by a BBC announcer. He raises £4,000. "

From some random Comic relief history PDF I just stumbled upon.

Hello people. Long time no shift. How are you?

I'm here for a wee bit, but I need to sort out my sleep pattern tonight so it won't be a 5:00 in the morning job.
 
 
STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK
23:03 / 08.06.05
Yay to everyone. I'm all hello an' shit, but I hit my posting limit not long ago, so this may be my last post for a few hours. BUT I shall use this post to tell you that I just watched Terminal Invasion, starring Bruce MOTHERFUCKIN Campbell, and it was ace. Ace, ace and more ace. Bruce, man. He had the chin and all. Just like the Forsyth one.

So yes! Hello! Don't be too affronted if I bugger off quickly, however.

...And similarly louche places.
Oh, I've missed the F&L love-in, haven't I. DAMN BLAST WITH A SIDE ORDER OF DOUBLE DAMN.
