Wasn’t able to secure any review code for HELLRAISER unfortunately. But I found this amazing FB clip of Doug Bradley doing a Scouse Pinhead and now I’m crying from laughter. He’s amazing. (Source: YMH Podcast.)

And it was 1,000 Vs 800. Out of 200,000-ish members, quite how the party constitution can allow a "vote" like this to influence discussion and policy is beyond me.

Looks like it's a Private Eye "gag" from their 6th form satirical magazine correspondent based on the concept that all bald men look the same.
Instagram screenshot of a Private Eye post from March 2025 which "hilariously" compares Max Schreck as Nosferatu with John Healey. The resemblance starts and ends at quantity of hair.

Jem @j1jem.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
I caught a bit of HIGNFY last night, there was an odd joke about Healey which suggests that the Opinion Columnist class are attempting to paint him as a vampire/Michael Howard type, which makes no sense at all, but presumably does to some roaster on the writing staff who is still on Xitter?

Although even this alludes to, but still skips over, the vital question: Does the Lurpak golem fill in for the Art Attack golem when the latter inevitably melts from its own success, or does it have a different function?

There was a great one at last year's FOTU which was in the Concorde De L'Ordinaire. My, then, 14yo was obsessed as it's the "hero" car in the game he'd played for hours called My Summer Car, where you have to rebuild/restore one. "Oh, that's exactly where the brake lines are in the game!"

Portishead is technically Somerset though, so is up against the might of Tears for Fears. Although that does also raise the question of where be the Wurzels to?

Screenshot of the Naomi Wolf Vs Stanley Bear tweet from the height of the COVID pandemic, where the former believed that the vaccine contained time-travelling nanopatticles [sic], while the latter is a stuffed toy bear intended to make children slightly less scared at entering a medical establishment. His views on vaccinations remains unclear.

I should, at this point, simply refer to this as my "Guy Kelly reaction meme" and have done with it.

A huge shame, but understable, just reading those makes my blood boil and they aren't directed at me! I stumbled across your channel a couple of years ago when my algo was punting me Talbot related content - I enjoy your presenting style and the Rancho restoration vids are really interesting!

Yep, it's something that's tricky to talk about without feeling selfish, but I felt it was quite traumatic to care for and support someone who had to put so much effort into simply existing, knowing I was the only one there to respond if something went wrong, and to feel on that edge constantly.

The formatting of this Beckett quote does still represent resilience and determination, just of a very different sort.
A neon light art piece of Samuel Beckett's famous quote "I can't go on. I'll go on" but spaced - it would seem inadvertently- so that it reads "I can't goon. I'll goon".

It's the episode on the cultural impact of Asterix on France, which makes it legit funny. Like, literally NOBODY on Youtube has bothered covering that before. But this guy is like "okay sure you're a podcast, and this is probably interesting, but you SUCK because there aren't enough pictures"

The Bangles is such a familiar name to me that I never realised, until Susannah Hoffs mentioned it in this month's Mojo, that they directly based it on The Beatles. They just swapped one percussive word for another. Beat. Bang. Duh.
