JK Rowling: The Greatest Living British Writer?
JK Rowling – author of the Harry Potter series of books, just in case you’ve been living under a rock for the last few years – has been voted “the greatest living British writer” in a recent poll in The Book Magazine.
Discworld author Terry Pratchett came second, but received just a third of the total [...]
Some people are never happy…
It's posts like this that make it worth coming into work in the morning. Seeing Rory's post during my regular morning trawl through blogworld has brightened my day immeasurably.

What's the point of even having a watershed if you have to wait for sufficient amount of time before showing adult content! Perhaps we need to have layered watersheds, [...]
Who’s in need?
It looks like I might have to force myself to watch Children in Need this year. According to Gallifrey One (the leading Dr. Who news site, imho), there'll be a short episode screened during the evening. This should give viewers the first real chance to see David Tennant's take on the good Doctor. Looks like [...]
