This is my new album.
It's instrumental, apart from some crowd chanting on Your Gold, Mr Bridger.
The average tune length is two minutes and eight seconds.
There are fourteen tunes.
It sounds like old telly music.
It's ace.
I'd love it if you listened.
I've love it even more if you shared it.

Take a look at this from Private Eye.
Might be just me but I think Newsjack had the blanket advisory: "Please don't do this joke we receive it 40+ times a week."
Amazing to do the double with it here. Pope AND the bear in the woods.

CHRISTMAS FACT:
Since the start of the century ‘Merry Christmas Everyone’ by Shakin' Stevens has amassed 18 million seconds of radio and TV airplay, the equivalent of over half a year of continuous broadcast. More than 86,000 plays.
Lots of cash for his ongoing house renovation.

The Guardian has a go at Ben Elton for mentioning in his new autobiography that George Harrison thanked him for "making us laugh in the '80s".
Why would you possibly leave this out? There are Beatle nerds now ready to write theses on the fact that George watched Blackadder.
