I`m an ex-Burchill fan. Do I still have to burn? She`s been crap for a long time now. Anyway, as a non-English person, I`m protected from her worst excesses by distance.

Burchill was good, and occasionaly totally excellent... but she went off and when every column in the Guardian seemed to a variation on 'Why have they made Brighton a city?!' I was glad she left

Floyd-the-k

there you are, I never got to read her Guardian column. Just the occasional book review. In fact, I started buying the Spectator because she was in it.
 As for David Bowie...nobody has mentioned The Man Who Fell To Earth, which was pretty good as I remember it.

yours hoping they don`t burn Spectator readers around these parts

Wils,

Regarding your picture of Donald Sutherland above. Do you (or anyone else) have a copy of the sound he is making at this point in the movie?

I've been trying to track down this particular noise on the Interweb for a good while now, with no success.

(Dear Reader, If you have no idea what I'm talking about, don't try to figure it out, lest ye be spolit!)

Also, in a shock on topic move, I only have the most recent best of album of Mr. Bowie's. The tracks on it are flippin' aces, but "best ofs" are not the same as a proper coherent album, so,  by extrapolation only, I declare him very great indeed.

Queen Firey-Bou

ahhhh in the bliss of the secluded mud-hut in the northern rad-lands... i havent a clue who birchil is.... but ive heard leslie riddoch a few times, she kicks ass.

House of Usher

Julie Burchill's fave theme: 'Why have they made Brighton a city?!'

- probably because in recent years it has become a magnet for arts + media slags, and the council decided that being a town wasn't good enough for them.

I pronounce her a st**pid b*-atch.
STRIKE !!!

When I was younger, I swooned over David Bowie in Labyrinth.  My fiance can't stand David Bowie so I don't get to watch Labrynth very much anymore, but then I've got my fiance to swoon over. ;)

I've never gotten any of Bowie's albums so I don't really know how good of a singer he is beyond what I heard in Labyrinth and maybe an occasional song on the radio since I listen to the all 80's station.
