The video for Lionel Richie's "Hello" is a classic. It's so bad it's brilliant.

Here's a link to a very funny analysis of said film...

And did you know, the actress playing the blind girl found it very difficult playing a blind person. She got terrible eyestrain from 'unfocusing' her eyes. So Lionel bought her a telly and tried to shag her. TRUFAX.

It's absolutely pissing down outside as I write this. I mean it's monsoon weather right now. So much for the summer.

It's been a weird week so far. I've finished my latest film for the Beeb, not very happy as I was only given one day to edit it but hey.

My girlfriend's mother's been diagnosed with a tumour on one of her ovaries, possibly...

I'm exhausted. Work is a bit stressful at the moment, very annoying. Looking forward to a holiday in a coupla weeks though.

In other news, bought my kid brother an ipod for his 21st birthday. He was genuinely touched and surprised, and I think he'll get a lot of pleasure out of it - especially with all the wicked choons I downloaded onto it before...

Today's been a surreal day. I went in to work an hour early, as I was editing.

If I'd gotten my train at the normal time, chances are I'd have been passing through liverpool street at the time of the first blast.

I still love London, but after the high of getting the Olympics, to see our city bombed really upsets me.

I'll never get bored of watching this particular video clip.

Young japanese woman in elevator with man. Lift doors open, man walks out and on the way, tries to grab her handbag.

What happens next? See for yourself...

Man I've been working hard recently. Shot my first studio with a professional presenter and everything. It went well, but the editing's been difficult. It's a 45min prog which is a combination of links and VTs. I cut it to length yesterday, then the series editor came to watch it.

He cut about 10 mins out of it so I've got to shoot some more...

A selection of amazing football tricks - the beautiful game never looked so good. It's funny how few of them actually lead to a meaningful goal or pass though. Give me an 80s era Graeme Souness or Roy Keane any day.

Went out last night for a very nice birthday drinks in The Mitre in Holland Park. My gf and I had fairly pleasant chat with most of the people there, apart from a couple of rather nasty little slags who sat in the corner with the noses turned up at my girlfriend. What cunts.

Also amusing to see a very small looking Mark Owen ex...

Ah, Monday.

I'm going in to work today. Another day in the office. I just hope that all the people I emailed and left messages for on Friday are gonna get back to me today.

I'm supposed to be doing some filming in Southport apparently. That's in Merseyside. Ho hum.

Weather... unpleasantly cloudy and chilly. So much for our summer heatwave.

If there are any...

I've just found this rather wonderful website, full of postcards sent in by anonymous people. Love it. Click and read, it's very enjoyable.
