When you think of the Wimbledon Tennis Championship what springs to your mind first? Disappointment? Andy Murray’s elastic nationality? Rain? Sloanes roaming around South West London quaffing champers and talking about their gap yahs with Amelia and Tarquin?
No, you idiot, you think of Strawberries and Cream. The archetypal tennis nibble. Surely nothing could be more British than that!?

Things we like and no like.
Folded:
- Public Enemies (it’s the real deal, if you can hack the grainy digi-video that is)
- First Class (always looks nice from the platform. Then again Lindsay Lohan looks nice from a distance too)
- Warrior’s Dance by The Prodigy (sounds like 808 State. Major compliment)
- Wimbledon roof (the BBC has dedicated 70% of their coverage to talking about it, so it’s nice that it works)
- Freeze Frame on DVD (a quite bizarre paranoid thriller from 2004, but Lee Evans is extraordinary in it)
Creased:
- Sex Panther (funny, but at £29.95 you may as well just buy a bottle of Brut and save yourself £29.90)
- Quiet coach (nothing quiet about six mobile phones going off at once)
- Happy Andy Murray (great tennis player, miserable as sin)
- Personal Affairs (usual unspeakable BBC Three rubbish. Probably been commissioned for a second series already)
- Lego Amy Winehouse (or a conehead, you decide)
