Happy and sad.
Folded:
- Emeli Sande (criminally not in the video for Diamond Rings by Chipmunk despite doing all the singing. Buy her stuff anyway, it’s grrrr and soulful)
- Benefit Busters on Channel 4 (all hilarious but ‘in conversation with Emma’ was comedy moment of the year)
- Big Brother axed (don’t worry, we’ll find something else to write about all summer)
- Colin McRae: Dirt 2 (currently available for download on PS3 and Xbox 360. Shaping up as this year’s most fun racer)
- Sweet Dreams by Beyoncé (only comparatively Folded, but it’s still her best track for years)
Creased:
- Avatar teaser footage (take your joypads when the film hits cinemas in December)
- Empire magazine’s message board analysing said Avatar footage (at one point it had 700 comments, 98% of which were utter garbage)
- New X Factor format (did anyone remember asking for Britain’s Got The X Factor?)
- Remedy by Little Boots (‘Little Boots’ is apparently her nickname because she has little feet. Right, and The Dude’s called The Dude because everyone thinks he’s so cool)
- My Big Decision on BBC Three (touching stuff when that girl ‘overcame’ her desire for liposuction by having her mum hire a £400 a month personal trainer)
