Some things just has ‘box office gold’ stamped all over it – and now that list also apparently includes ‘two and a half hours of four ropey-looking middle-aged women screeching’.

This week’s soft and hard cookies
Folded:
* Track-a-partner.com (find out if your partner is cheating on you by tracking their mobile phone signal)
* Sex and the City: The Movie (the ladies are still muttony mutton, but the film is surprisingly OK)
* In Bed with Medinner (just been scanning some of this GENIUS television on YouTube. Remember it first time around? It’s got even better with age)
* Bob Mills or ‘Millsy’ (see above – Charlie Brooker is the nearest modern day equivalent for this TV pundit/piss-taker/VHS God, but as good as he is, Millsy will always reign supreme. Myfanwy anyone?
* Schweine by Glukoza (as featured in GTA IV. Notwithstanding any political connotations, this is a crackling comedy toe-tapper. A Google image search for Glukoza turned up some promising results too)
Creased:
* The Tube – Underground (doesn’t get any better, does it?)
* American Dad season 3 DVD (not useless, but just seems as though most of the jokes could have been condensed into Family Guy)
* The return of Neil Diamond (some old singers should just stay dead)
* Cheap suitcases (why do we wait for these things to fall apart – usually on our actual journey – until we buy a new one?)
* Brothers and Sisters (geez, this show is more boring than getting your hair cut)
