I don't know why but it just occurred to me that there could be people, maybe even people who work as wait staff, who have never seen the over the top brilliance of "Can I Get A Box?" And that is a crime against nature. So, here you go.

7 years old tomorrow! I didn't even realize that!

The Loki star said he was ‘delighted’ to be a part of the event and ‘honoured’ be playing in the match.

Award-winning actor and Unicef ambassador Tom Hiddleston will make his Soccer Aid debut as he joins the 2023 England team at the charity event.

The Loki star said he was “delighted” to be a part of the event and “honoured” be playing in the match.

“I’m so honoured to be playing. I’ve been an ambassador for Unicef UK for just over 10 years now,” he said.

“I’ve always been aware of Soccer Aid. It’s an extraordinary event which has so much joy in it, and it’s all for children.

“I’m so delighted that I can be part of it this year.”

Hiddleston added: “I’ve been privileged to see the work that Unicef does in Guinea and South Sudan.

“They are providing for children in ways that are essential and life-saving. It is the most extraordinary work.”

Hiddleston joins the roster of famous faces already announced for the Soccer Aid England squad including Paddy McGuinness, Danny Dyer, Scarlette Douglas, Alex Brooker, Bugzy Malone, Asa Butterfield and Liam Payne.

The 2023 England management team will be led by rapper Stormzy, with assistance from Line Of Duty star Vicky McClure, Harry Redknapp and Emma Hayes.

Retired Olympic sprinter Usain Bolt captains the World XI squad, which also includes Mo Gilligan, Lee Mack and Love Island star Tommy Fury.

The coming weeks will see a host of other star names announced – with neither team’s line-up yet complete.

random thoughts dump of the week bc none of this deserves its own post

coming down from a smol john kearns kick and really enjoyed it, guy has a ridiculously sweet presence and i really like his voice. it also brings me great joy his previous career was working in museums and as a tour guide. i would like that life, i think (i worked at universal orlando for a little bit in 2013 and was always super jealous of the vip tour guides lol). he mentioned on one of his rhlstps that despite winning arguably the biggest (british) comedy awards there are, he never released a standup special or dvd, and he kinda wants to keep it that way so he has something special between him and his live audience — and that really made me sad face. like, my guy, what about those of us who can't see you bc won't leave that damn island. (also ed gamble's new tour having no nyc date felt personal...) in another episode, he talked a little about, in great part due to social media, people want comedians they can know everything about, get the whole look of; comedians who are the same people onstage as off. he's not like that and doesn't really like the idea of that. i think there's a lot to say about that subject but i'll just leave it for now...

speaking of touring ed byrne next week!!! and jimmy and alan carr coming up!! what a fun time :')

speaking of rhlstp and ed, one thing that occurred to me and i thought was quite funny upon listening to his recent episode is that both richard and ed have that self-aware side of them that admits to bitterness, professional jealousy, annoyance with critics/haters, believing they're not as successful as they deserve to be, etc. while it can come off whiney here and there, it's not too obnoxious or anything, i just found it amusing they had this (often concealed or private) quality in common. i might even put jenny eclair in that camp (others too but that's a discourse i don't really wanna start lmao)

if another youtuber, following amelia dimoldenberg (and munya? does he count?), had to go on taskmaster i would probably vote for ollie kendal off of jolly. in my mind he and alex would be genuinely good friends outside of the show

man i miss the horne section podcast so bad

honestly, i'm a little surprised david mitchell doesn't have a podcast. he loves radio, it's not too demanding of a gig, and he's got tons of interests that could make engaging premises for podcasts... i'm sure someone has floated this to him before, so i need the reason why he said no. maybe he was busy with his book. would love a history pod fr

does anyone else ever remember when david mitchell was in rick and morty and just sit back and go O_O also when he was on graham norton with hillary clinton like lmaooo i just love the idea of the booking agents for that show being like "we're having fucking hillary clinton on who can we bring for comic relief who is a household name but not problematic but intelligent but actually funny" i mean they hit the jackpot of course but it cracks me up that that's his brand

did david ever watch succession? rob def did but i need more about it from both of them

sometimes i think about when david accepted his bafta for peep show and the music that was playing while he walked to the stage was "sex on fire" by kings of leon hahahahaha like what who was djing that night fr

where did charlie brooker go

speaking of back in the day — and i do mean back, like 15+ years ago — and my main panel show obsession was buzzcocks, there were a few non-comedians who would come on panel shows who were properly fucking funny, like martin freeman and josh groban, and i'd always pray they'd eventually come on again. and i think at the time the person at the top of my list was professor green. how random is that TT he was just always up for laugh and just so likable. i also LOVED the song "just good to be green" with lily allen in like 2010 lmaooo this really ages me :)

been really enjoying some old angus deayton-hosted stuff, like old hignfy and wilty. i got into panel shows after he'd stepped out of the spotlight, but i remember being crushed when i found out about his scandal. i also remember stephen fry standing up for him and chastising paul & ian publicly after That Episode of hignfy — which absolutely blew my mind, even though stephen has always said what he thinks — and i agreed with him and am not sure even today if i fully forgave paul & ian for how they treated angus. ik he's still here and there, but i wonder if we'll ever see him in any properly notable capacity again

just watched the latest hignfy actually and jack dee pheww he's ageing very nicely let me just say it and pheww emmanuel sonubi please and thank you. also, paul's outfit was quite nice. an enjoyment of the eyes indeed

i've been making a lot of typos in my gifs lately for literally no reason other than not proofreading my rushing and it's embarrazzing i'm gonna do better

speaking of gifs i have NOTHING!!! in my drafts folder. nothing. no content. nothing is made. nothing in the queue. [sigh] sounds like tonight we be bustin it out huh. idk about other gifmakers (i actually don't follow any other panel show blogs, but this isn't necessarily a panel show blog thing, just a regular original content thing) but i don't usually make gifs throughout the week — instead, like, marathon gif like two times a week and build up 10–20 drafts to post throughout the week. if you gif every single day or to keep up with all of the new content, it starts to become a chore, which is never fun :(

speaking of which i probably won't gif outsiders too much because people don't seem to care too much about it + the webrips are just...so ugly in gif form, even at 1080p! it's a dave thing fr, taskmaster used to be the same way -_-

okay here we go into gif mode btw i got some of your requests and will def make them!!

[appreciativehooting]

Seeing the USA folks talk about the conspiracy theories around their recent alert test reminded me of a reality TV show I saw on the BBC years ago which was exactly the same concept as the conspiracy theory!

I vaguely remember a spin off with child contestants but I can't find it anywhere. If anyone else can corroborate, please share!

I didn't know this before looking for the above, but apparently it replaced In the Flesh, which was about a bisexual zombie, I think (from scanning the Wikipedia page)?

It looks like it has the potential to be very amusingly bad - I'm excited to try and find it. Someone might say I consume cheap supernatural dramas like a zombie consumes flesh.

One more bonus: Dead Set is a (scripted, not reality) miniseries about the zombie apocalypse starting while filming Big Brother. Just describing that concept brings me so much joy!

It's got horror which gave me nightmares as a child; it's got delectably punchable characters and also nicer ones to root for; it's got a terrible Spanish remake for some reason; and it's highly recommended by me if you can ignore the touches of late 2000s style of edgy humour.

Turns out it's written by Charlie Brooker (famous for Black Mirror) if that is the kind of thing which catches your interest.

HOTEL DU GLOBE Revisits Their Post-punk Roots with new single ‘Back to the Past’

We originally wrote this song in 1987. At that time we were inspired by "Severina" by The Mission. In 2021, the song resurfaced at a party with friends. Our new guitarist, Jo, noticed and liked it. Flattered, we decided to record it with Louise's smooth voice on vocals.

Hotel du Globe is a Belgian rock band, formed in the early 80s by singer Pierre Melchior and bassist Frédéric Floss. The third member was Dimitri Koutcheriw on drums and keyboards. Later, guitarist Philippe Verstraeten and drummer Eric Bayens were recruited.

"We were largely influenced by the bands that emerged after the punk movement. Among others Joy Divison, Human League, The Cure, B-Movie, Simple Minds, etc... "

We composed several "New Wave" songs with metaphysical lyrics, corresponding to our "No Future" generation.

Due to a lack of artistic perspective and despite good feedback on the music and the concerts, the band decided to take a break after their last concert in 1987. This should have been the end ...

The covid-19 pandemic led us to an existential impasse but we were able to exploit the confinement. Our ideas and thoughts were able to escape from this virtual prison... "We caught a window to the sky"... Watching new TV series with 80's music in the background was a trigger!

More than three decades later, the idea of relaunching the band was born in our minds. We decided to record and revisit our most popular song, called "Eyes of the shadow", an energetic and melodic post-punk rock song.

This song has already caught the attention of the Bath-based British label Glasstone Records. They signed us for the distribution and mastering of this track which officially became our first single.

In the meantime, we also recorded "Posthumous Decoration". Both of these songs were written in 1981.

For these recording sessions, we were pleased to welcome the talented musician Geoffrey Lesire who added guitars and backing vocals. Marc De Meersman - who has been with the band since 1985 - on drums. He has played with several bands such as "Vaya Con Dios", Isabelle Antena, The Domino's.

And on top of it all, the young and charismatic Louise joined us and put her sweet and warm voice on our second single "Back to the Past". A melancholic ballad written in 1987.

To complete the project Didier, a close friend, and also a talented and creative keyboard player joined us as well.

We are currently finishing the recording of our first 5 songs EP "INTROSPECTION". The common thread is melancholy. It will be available in spring 2023 and will be mastered by Greg Brookers Glasstone Records. And finally ... We are working on new material. We look forward to share them with you.

With Love Hotel du Globe
