        Prince livens up London
       
    We love Prince. He's been awesome in concert
    this summer. When he went to film his new music
    video, Prince walked up to the director and every
    member of the crew and asked them "Do you have
    Jehovah in your heart?" Only a positive answer
    kept them on set. And while making the video,
    His Purple Lordship was accompanied by a hooker,
    to whom he would only converse through a
    third-party. (For example, Prince, "Please would
    somebody ask the lady if she would like to come
    to my dressing room?")

        Howard gets the party started

    Bungalow 8 has a reputation for being the
    most exclusive, celebrity-friendly club in
    New York. It's about to open in London. The club
    held a launch party last Saturday. And the starry
    cast of A-listers in attendance? For most of
    the night it was Caprice... and Howard, from the
    Halifax adverts.

        Questions for the Blue Peter pets

    Who names the Blue Peter animals? It turns
    out that this is one of the burning questions
    of our time. Amid the recriminations and
    inquests at the BBC about Socks, we hear
    we should be asking about the other animals.
    There are particular question marks over the
    tortoise they call "Shelley", allegedly.

FYI: The average age of a tortoise is 80, and the
oldest ever recorded, Tui Malila, lived to be
188. Three of Blue Peter's five tortoises have
died before their 17th birthday. What is going
on? We think we should be told.

        What people are asking this week

    Which newspaper shouted at one of his
    staff-members "You're a fucking naughty
    girl, I'm going to take your fucking knickers
    down and fuck you across your fucking desk."
    The reason? He didn't care for her response
    when he asked her if she liked the new
    office redecoration colour scheme.

    Most newsrooms have loud beeps or buzzers on
    their breaking news wires, does Al Jazeera
    really have a quacking duck sound?

    The Drug Squad told us that they've tested
    London's water supply to see how much cocaine is
    consumed on a daily basis. Their estimate?
    150,000 lines of the equivalent of pure
    cocaine every single day.

        The warts and all tale of Bethall

    Conservative Lord and MEP Lord Bethell, who died
    last week, was probably best known for his
    anti-communist activities and writings, and for
    a libel case he won in the 70s against Private
    Eye about facilitating Solzhenitsyn's arrest

    However, his friends knew him as the chap with a
    ping-pong ball sized wart which dangled on a
    thread on his arse. One of his lady-friends
    told us that, at certain times, it was
    "rather distracting".

        Beckham's career goes down under

    If there was any doubt over David Beckham's
    new role, this seems to confirm him as the
    MLS circus' resident freak show or prize exhibit.
    New Zealand's Wellington Phoenix Football Club
    have made a deal with LA Galaxy for the US team
    to come over for a 2nd December game, with Beckham
    contracted to appear for at least 55 minutes,
    or the match will be rescheduled.

        >> Stand by your pram <<
        Britney could be the new Tammy

    Poor Britney. Enough is enough. Taking pot-
    shots at this troubled ex-Mousketeer has gone
    too far. This week she was attacked in the
    US media for not being able to close her
    pram properly. And now she's almost being
    blamed for 9/11. Leader of the Palestinian
    Popular Resistance, Muhammad Abdel-Al said,
    "If I meet these whores I will have the honour
    to be the first one to cut the heads off Madonna
    and Britney Spears if they will keep spreading
    their Satanic culture against Islam."

    Britney, if you're reading, there's only one
    thing for it. Quit LA and the music scene.
    The Paris Hiltons and K-Feds of the world
    can teach you nothing. Move back South,
    go hang out with Dolly Parton, and come
    back with big hair and a country albums.
    You've got the voice for it and, quite
    frankly, the sad life, to be the new
    Tammy Wynette.

FYI: The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine,
the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine
and the Popular Revolutionary Front for the Liberation
of Palestine have so far declined to give their
views on Britney. But we will ask them and hope to
bring you their comments next week.

         >> David and Goliath <<
         The world of celebrity football

    On Wednesday nights, near the Westway,
    celebrities gather to play football together.
    Ant 'n Dec, Robbie Williams, Ralph Little etc
    all pit their skills on the pitch against
    friends. Only one celebrity player insists
    on bringing his body guard with him. And
    that's Craig David. The big bouncer walks Craig
    to the pitch, and then sits in the stand
    during the game, the lone spectator. When
    the match finishes, the bodyguard walks him out.

FYI: You can insert own joke here about Craig playing
for the other team or being a left footer. But in
fact he plays on the right wing. So there.

FYI 2: We always thought Craig spent Wednesdays
making love, not playing football.
