If you're anything like us, you spent the Christmas period playing interminable board games with members of your extended family, getting mown down by 10,000 toddlers on Heelies everywhere you went and wondering why nobody from hecklerspray was asked to contribute to  that Most Annoying People Of 2006 show that was on BBC3 on Sunday.

But it's now 2007 – a brand new year full of fresh starts and exciting new possibilities, and hecklerspray is going to be right here to guide you carefully through this unknown new era. Today's big news? Britney Spears has apparently fallen over or something. Woo hoo – 2007 is going to be great!

Happy new year everyone.
