I think it allows irregular past tenses (ie those not just adding d or ed) - the same with plurals. I recall GEESE as a solution a few weeks ago

I mean, I could have gone for something niche like Star Wars and Rumours. Or Saturday Night Fever and, er, Saturday Night Fever. But, in the end, I went with the big guns

I just had a flashback to Fathers Day when I was about 9. I made my Dad morning coffee with about 12 sweeteners in as a special treat. He wasn't as delighted as I expected. It appears you can have too much of a good thing

I daresay. But a spot of UHT milk and a couple of Hermesetas would really bring it to life

I've just looked at the menu for my next-nearest eaterie. It's now all Bendy instead of Bender, Flat White instead of Romboults Filter Coffee, Chips instead of French Fried Potatoes. A damning indictment of woke Britain

Calories indeed. Mr Wimpy would be rolling in his grave. We had a new Wimpy open in our neighbouring town of Tonbridge (the non-Royal one) a few years back but I've just seen it closed in May. Where will I get my brown derbies now?

On my 8th birthday I went to the cinema for the first time (Ghostbusters!) and Wimpy for the first time. Along with the births of my kids, it's right up there in my greatest days. I'll do my best to make it - save me an egg bender

Incidentally, All Night Long is a real bone of contention in our house. It seems I may have inadvertently put Dancing On The Ceiling on our approved wedding disco songs rather than this, and I've not been forgiven!

It's the look to the camera. Everyone else is trying too hard. The ginger kid knows it's all silly but doesn't care. In fact, he's enjoying it more because everyone else is taking it so seriously. And that, my friend, is how you were spotted!

I was trying to find a mash-up of Cilla thanking literally everyone who ever appeared on Surprise Surprise (Linda Lusardi, Gary Wilmot, our own Bob Carolgees...) It seems to have vanished, but I stumbled across this. Is it a young John Allison grooving away at 1'45?

This Cilla Black Christmas special is unforgettable TV – and not in a good way
Cilla Black was undoubtedly a Titan of light entertainment for several years, enjoying far more fame for her TV shows than she did for her 1960s pop career. But, like the statistical likelihood of bei...
