Nintendo Wii is 20 years old next month And I kinda feel like Wii was to many gamers what NES was to me—Basically a cultural phenomenon that ended up in most households. And for a lot of you, the Wii was where you fell in love with gaming as a kid, right? So.. how do you feel about Wii turning 20?

"The Right Stuff" was the lead single from Bryan Ferry's Bête Noire album, released on 26 September 1987. The track was co-written by Johnny Marr and essentially a vocal re-imagining of The Smiths' instrumental track "Money Changes Everything" #bryanferry #musicvideo #johnnymarr #thesmiths

Have I Got News for You

Deayton's suave manner as host of Have I Got News for You led to his being nicknamed "TV's Mr Sex", by a Time Out listings writer.[7]

In May 2002, the British tabloid newspaper the News of the World reported he had taken cocaine and had sex with prostitutes.[8] He was ridiculed by Paul Merton and Ian Hislop in the following episode of Have I Got News for You but continued as presenter. Deayton began the episode with: "Good evening and welcome to Have I Got News for You, where this week's loser is presenting it." He added later, "There is, by the way, no need to adjust your set, my face is this red."[9]

Following more allegations in October, Deayton was dismissed after two episodes of the new series. One online poll, on the BBC's own website, showed over three-quarters of respondents wanted Deayton to stay on as the programme's host.[10] In April 2003, Stephen Fry supported Deayton by refusing to appear on the show again.[11]

Responding to Merton's "I didn't stab him in the back, I stabbed him in the front" line regarding the episode, in 2016 Deayton said: "Yes, I've heard this and [his comment] is a way of not answering the question. But it's such a tangled web to describe what happened. And Merton and Hislop probably don't know what was happening in the background."[2]
