I can't say I've heard that about Jude Law, I must admit.

Heard it about Robbie Williams loads though...

Sadie was a bit of a 'bunny boiler', though.

I saw Jude Law naked in Stephen Fry's bedroom once. The man is sex mad.

why were you there?

Very generous of Stephen Fry to lend you his bedroom, Gio...

I feel a tad sorry for Jude Law for having his business splashed all over the national papers. What an awful experience celebrity must be - I'd genuinely hate to be famous. Secondly, Law is reviled for simply having an affair; if memory serves he isn't even married to Miller (who deserves to be cheated on for having a silly name spelt wrongly) and they don't have kids. Big bloody deal. And this made the front page of The Sun? Deary me. What folk should bear in mind is that Jude Law is very, very, very good-looking. Extremely handsome men such as myself and Jude get offers from all and sundry and it's a different world that the common herd simply can't comprehend. It's really hard to resist temptation.

Bad El Hadji Diouf

Didn't pay his TV licence it would appear.

He is such a naughty boy. Tsk !

Joey Barton's brother wanted in connection to the axe murder of Anthony Walker in Liverpool.

God, I just watched John Clease's 'Heroes of Comedy' programme on Channel 5. It was about as funny as a hangover - Sellers, Cooke, all the usual totally unfunny overrated tw@ts.

The Barton family seem a charming bunch...

Apparently Joey's made a televised appeal for his brother to come forward about it.

Going back to the thing Spinoza posted about El-Hadji Diouf not having a TV licence, how on earth was he only fined £100? I'm not going to start the whole "He's earning £X a week..." thing, but I'm fairly sure a TV licence costs more than £100, in which case, he hasn't really been penalised for not having one.

Bad Jack Dee

When on earth did Jack Dee go from being a good comedian to being the most unfunny man in Britain? Oh sorry, that's Skinner & Baddiel, but anyway...

Dee's material on this programme he's got going on BBC1 at the moment is woeful and how it made it on to mainstream BBC tv is a mystery to this observer (anyone else agree or disagree?). And just check out how many times he says "Jesus Christ!". He must say it at the end of every other sentence. Picky, I know, but excessive repetition of a phrase is the sign of a man losing the plot and unable to articulate decent material. If I tune in again (unlikely if Peter Kay is on Channel 4 at the same time as was the case yesterday) I'll count how many "Jesus Christ"s there are - that'll be fascinating! You're a pathetic excuse for a comedian, Dee, and either say something remotely funny or get off that stage and eff off into obscurity!

Bad Steve Coogan

According to AOL News, and the News of the World, Mr. Coogan has got Courtney Love up the stick. They had a two week 'fling' while they were both staying at the Sunset Marquis Hotel in West Hollywood.

Coogan was there after recently patching up his short marriage to Caroline Hickman. Mrs. Coogan had initially left him due to his 'fling' with a lapdancer.

Love is currently undergoing a 28-day drug treatment programme. She was ordered into rehab last week after admitting using drugs while on probation.

She is also on probation in three separate drug and assault cases and will be sentenced for the violations on September 16.

Good work, Partridge

That really is an odd couple!

Can you imagine the sprog!?

Fantastic! Probably the most amusing and original thing Coogan has done in years.

Has anyone heard from Harry Enfield? Or is his career also on the skids?

He's probably hanging around with Tony Slattery at the job centre

Enfield's career really started to look bad when his father got more tv time than he did.

To be fair Tony Slattery has never been funny. Enfield was funny before he made a bad error of signing for Sky TV. I think that's the last I heard of him.

Coogan (or more accurately, his spokeswoman) has declared that the story is nonsense. The Sun (that ever-accurate organ...) has concluded that the story may be wrong as well. See here.

I never really managed to understand why Tony Slattery was considered anything other than mildly amusing at best (at worst, he was as funny as a dose of bubonic plague). I don't know what happened with Enfield's Sky show, but ISTR mutterings that he did it for the money so as to go into semi-retirement. Whether that's true or not is another matter.

L'Equipe

Once again they are printing allegations about Lance Armstrong and performance enhancing drugs.

BBC Link

Would there be such a witch hunt if:

a) he was French
b) he hadn't broken the record of a French idol?

Due to his success, he has probably been tested more frequently than any other cyclist over the past 7 years.
