UK TV: JAMES CORDEN’S WORLD CUP LIVE – CALM DOWN JAMES!

June 22, 2010

Source I have been watching actor/’comedian’ James Corden’s new World Cup Live show (TFI Friday rip off) on ITV 1 and ITV 4 since the tournament kicked off in South Africa on June 11th, and it is quite entertaining.  However his interviews with individual members from the ridiculously lacklustre England squad (waste men) has so far been embarrassing to watch. I know that James is a huge football fan and that footballers in this country are treated like “Gods”, but he seriously […]

June 16, 2010

  “Talented” super group N-Dubz will soon feature in their own Channel 4 documentary,  Being N-Dubz, and in the soon to be aired doc “role model” Dabby (real name Dino Contostavlos) reveals that he routinely gives the wrong information to police whenever he is stopped and searched.  “Up to this day we still give the wrong name and address,”  Why would you admit that on television?  He is going to single-handedly destroy that group with his worthless shenanigans and reckless talk. The man is a BORN IDIOT! […]

UK TV: EASTENDERS INTRODUCES IT’S FIRST NIGERIAN CHARACTER BUT WHAT IS GOING ON WITH HER ACCENT?

June 8, 2010

BBC Soap Eastenders always seems to get wrong when they decide to integrate a black family into the show. The show recently introduced family members Mercy Olubunmi (played by Bunmi Mojekwu) and her Nigerian grandmother Grace Olubunmi (played by Ellen Thomas). I remember actress Ellen Thomas when she appeared on The Lenny Henry Show back in the late eighties. Since then she has starred in a multitude of different TV projects over the years, and has managed to bag some pretty big TV roles. Now she is playing a […]

UK TV: RAPPER TINIE TEMPAH APPEARS ON TONIGHT WITH JONATHAN ROSS / JAY-Z CLONE

May 24, 2010

Last Friday I tuned in to Tonight With Jonathan Ross and watched rapper Tinie Tempah perform with the Gorillaz. What I witnessed stunned me! Tinie had turned in to Jay-Z and stole Jay’s stage persona for the evening. It was actually embarrassing to watch. At one point I kept thinking is Tinie joking? Is he doing this deliberately? I understand that a lot of UK rappers look up to Jay and cite him as being a major influence, but this was just […]
