Various Bits and Pieces
- I've always liked DJ Andy Kershaw, so it's tragic to read about his recent problems with both the law and his broken relationship in an interview in today's Independent.
- I can't say I'm exactly in tears at the news that Wippit has shut down. Just ask Danny Baker what he thinks about them.
- Albion has blogged about the re-branding of Virgin Radio as Absolute Radio. Worth a read. You're already reading Onegoldensquare right?
- I don't quite understand why the Inland Revenue's Working Tax Credit radio ad employs Rhys Thomas playing essentially his Gary Bellamy- DJ character from the excellent Down The Line. We're supposed to be taking it seriously, so having the faux naif Bellamy asking the questions to determine your eligibility for the credit misses the point a little. Have a listen below.
