July 5th :Press release update…

Thanks to the respective PR companies for the following press releases:

BB4: One more night for someone…

Last night a bomb scare put paid to the usual eviction night process, in whatsome might see as a cynical attempt to boost ratings and get people talkingabout BB4 again.

The 8.30pm and 10pm shows were replaced with repeats of the old C4 stalwartFriends while Graham Norton‘s pre-recorded show, which usuallybegins with comments on who’s been evicted that night – three openings beingrecorded separately depending on the outcome – was badly edited to leave suchtraces of comments out and just make mention of Ladyboy Lisa instead.

The eviction will take place tonight in two shows at 9pm and 10pm, but at thetime of typing this it’s not yet known whether the task will happen on thesame night or Sunday. I reckon it’ll be moved to Sunday as they’ve moved theirevening film, The Quick and the Dead, to 10.30pm.

So, tonight three housemates are up for eviction, but who’s going out thisweek?

Barry White dies aged 58…

I was very saddened to hear of the death of soul legend Barry White,aka “The Walrus of Love”, who died in a Los Angeles hospital yesterday morningaged 58.

He had been seriously ill in Cedars Sinai Hospital since suffering kidneyfailure in 2002. In May, as he awaited a kidney donor, he suffered a strokethat affected his speech and the left side of his body.

Barry White is survived by eight children and his best songs includedYou’re The First The Last My Everything, Can’t Get Enough Of Your Loveand Just the Way You Are.

I remember hearing him on Johnnie Walker’s show on Radio 2 a couple of yearsback about how he was fronting the government’s safe-sex campaign, which seemedamusingly ironic given the sexual overtones of his music. I heard his voice onthe radio again recently and it really did sound slurred as alighted to above.

Barry White will be sorely missed.
