Some may have been amused by the Echo Newspaper being taken apart by Media Watch last week. The timing therefore could not be worse for their big anniversary dinner last night, when these mugs were handed out with independent spelt incorrectly. Oh the humanity. Oh the independance! If Jonathon Holmes sees this, I hope he doesn’t start singing Echo Beach. For some reason he was singing in last week’s show.

article from The Grauniad in which famous musicians are asked to recount their favourite moment on stage. For some reason they asked Luke “Lord Gaga” Steele.
He uses it as an opportunity to bemoan the lack of ooshta in his home town
