>> Help Morris! <<
Turn terrorism comedy into movie
We told you that Chris Morris' terror cell
comedy had been rejected by a fearful Channel 4
and BBC. It seems they have a history of
this. Muslim comedian Omar Mazouk was to
present a mockumentary about misguided
suicide bombers for BBC but this was also
nixed. He took the idea to a TV network in
Denmark instead, where it's getting rave reviews.
And putting two fingers up to TV commissioners,
Morris is turning his Jihadi sitcom into a
film. He's got producers at Warpfilm and a
distributor. All he needs now is enough money
to make the film. Which is where we come in.
Popbitch readers donating between 25 and 100
quid to help get the film made will get the
chance to be in it. So get out your cheque book
and burkha and email:
fundingmentalism@warpfilms.com
Chris would not deny or confirm that recruits
who sign up will also get a free al-Qaeda
explosives handbook.

>> Chateau temporary <<
Maybe Monty likes writing more than vineyards
Chateau Monty is the TV show that has wine writer
Monty Waldin trying to run a vineyard. He can't
have liked it very much. TV folk tell us that
when filming was over, so was Monty's career as
a vineyard owner.

>> Bike wars <<
McCain offers Sarah Palin a ride on his chopper
All you have to do is stand for President and
American companies start showering you with
freebies. John McCain was just given a customised
motorbike, by Orange County Choppers. It's
designed to be a tribute to PoWs - the barbed
wire highlights are especially tasteful.
When McCain was presented with the bike he said
"Sarah and I are going to get on that chopper
and ride it straight to Washington!".
Sadly John McCain doesn't have a bike license and
his years as a PoW means he can't lift his arms
high enough to reach the handlebars. Plus the
lack of rear suspension would aggravate his
enlarged prostate. Oh and the bike isn't road
legal either. Nice work, Orange County Choppers.

What people are asking this week
Which UK TV star's marriage is going through a
rough patch not just because of her work
commitments but because her husband is more
interested in the attentions of other men?
-----------------------------------------------------
Neil Tennant passed his driving test yesterday.
Congratulations.

>> Constipation good, prolapse bad <<
Jordan's handy definition for celeb privacy
As lawyers desperately scrabble to define what
is or isn't private, Jordan has come up with
her own definition in OK!
Q: You had surgery for a prolapsed womb?
A: I don't want to talk about that because
it's no-one's business.
Next paragraph
Q: What was wrong with your bowels?
A: "... I had to have a catheter fitted and I
was so blocked I couldn't go to the toilet
for 13 days... when I finally did, it took me
three hours to give birth to a pebble."

>> Reporting from Afghanistan <<
What has the army got up its sleevies
The BBC recently did a documentary uncovering
bullying in the army. Obviously to make the
show a journalist had to join the army, go
through training etc. Once his investigation
was complete he needed to leave in order
to complete the expose so he claimed his
girlfriend was pregnant and was forcing him
to leave the army - allowing him to resign
on compassionate grounds.
The army have now worked out this was untrue so
are said to be looking at making the reporter
come back and complete his service, as he is
legally obliged to do so. Bosses think he'd
be perfect for a posting to Afghanistan.

Gerrard just wants to be left alone, kinda
Another celebrity with an odd concept of privacy
is Steven Gerrard. When we suggested Steven was
looking at a new house in Lancashire, his lawyers
were very quick to claim Gerrard's privacy was
being invaded. So it's surprising to see Steven
this week on the front cover of OK! invading his
own privacy with a family photo-shoot at his
"exclusive Portuguese holiday hideaway". As he
recently told footballers' style-bible Icon,
"When I want to get away from football with my
family and there are people following us with
cameras. I feel I deserve my own time with my
family too... it annoys me when people don't
respect my family's privacy."

How not to get a suit in London
The credit crunch is even biting in celebrity
world. Sex and the City's Mr Big, Chris Noth
needed a new suit in London recently so got a small
London boutique to come to his Claridges suite
and do a fitting for him. Noth was pleasant,
and the fitting went well. After he left, the
boutique owner asked his 'people" how they
should bill for their work. There was some
awkward shuffling of feet until it dawned on
the shop manager that the actor's staff had
assumed they would get it for free. Cue more
awkwardness until the boutique manager left.

Baggage screening is SO 2007
Airport security in America is turning Orwellian.
Homeland Security is testing a new generation of
security screening - one that can read your mind.
Malintent has a series of sensors and imagers that
read your body temperature, heart rate and
respiration for unconscious tells invisible to the
naked eye. Security chiefs say this will help them
find the signals terrorists and criminals may
display in advance of an attack. Those of you
scared of flying, or trying to smuggle a tiny bit
of weed in your wallet, give up now or prepare for
life in Guantanemo. The man behind the new system
says his goal is to "restore a sense of freedom."

>> RIP VMAs <<
MTV make mockery of world
Poor old Britney. Once again used by outside
interests and corporations. Men, mum, record
label, paps - they've all used Brit to make
cash with no regard to her mental health. After
years at the top of pop and some of the greatest
pop songs of the last decade she couldn't get
arrested at MTV awards ceremonies. Now,
as US pop looks, for once, so second rate
that it can't break out beyond tween circles,
Viacom uses the poor, fragile, obviously over-
medicated ex-pop star for publicity and news.
One of the least impressive, least bought records
suddenly make her a star. Yeah right. Nothing
should be able to withstand this amount of
cynicism. Death to the Video Music Awards!
Russell Brand tried to smash the mediocrity, at least.
Enjoy the online comments, many more like this one:

>> Brass neck <<
BBC say Airline Plot good, Morris bad?
Chris Morris. Role model for news and comedy
shows on TV. He has a brilliant new show idea.
The Brass Eye provocateur has written a comedy
about a Jihadi wannabe suicide bomber cell
in the North of England. It's funny and topical.
The perfect TV show? Well, maybe to you and me.
To the BBC and C4, the channels we hear he
offered it to, it's not. They've said no to it.
Possibly too scared at the subject content?
Did you see the recent "Airline Plot" terror trial?
The jury didn't convict but on the same day, the
BBC thought it was appropriate to use their news
programmes to attack that jury, and put out a
Panorama show called "The Airline Plot" -
when a jury had decided that no such plot existed.
And Morris can't get his show commissioned!

The BBC has a series called New Tricks which is
incredibly successful It stars popular but
uncool actors James Bolam, Amanda Redman and
Dennis Waterman as detectives. It's proved
a massive hit with viewers. All good? You'd
think. Except BBC suits HATE it. And its
success. BBC Drama has targets, focus group
works and demographics to hit and this
doesn't. Cue soul searching, and bitter
recriminations among executives who don't
think this should be BBC output.

staff and asked them what he needed to
make-up the horse to look beautiful. He
walked off with a haul including brushes,
eye shadows, blushers, gel eyeliner, and
make up remover - costing more than three grand.

>> God hates the UK <<
And Ireland, apparently
"Have we told you lately that God hates the UK?"
The lovely Phelps family of Westboro Baptist
Church, aka the God Hates Fags gang, have a
new target: the UK.
Apparently we're being punished for our "fag
enabling ways". They blame: The Church of
England, "Enough said about that filthy false
religion". And the Government, "Its head is
the Sovereign, Queen Elizabeth, II. That’s
right - the exact same Queen Elizabeth, II,
who is the head of the Church of England."
No shit, Sherlock.
And God's punishment: London tornado in 2006
(6 injured), the 2003 European heatwave "which
included the U.K" and last but not least,

Nagging the best man
Australian weddings can be weird things. A
stag night in Sydney recently went so wrong it
went to court. Everything was going well, the
stripper was popular, until the best man was
called upon to do his bit. He ended up on all
fours, with the stripper on top of him, brandishing
a dildo. The, apparently conservative best man
is said to have told the stripper, "don't put
it in". "Moments later the best man squinted
and got up quickly, calling the stripper an
idiot and telling her to leave", the court heard.
"I feel that my manhood has dropped a bit," he
told police in his statement.
And the name of the stripper who ended up
"riding him like a horse"? Linda Naggs.

Bristol hits the baby news again
France's Minister of Justice, Rachida Dati,
has announced she is pregnant, but isn't
going to say who the father is. Spanish media
has started to report that one celebrity is
denying he is the father. Ex-President Jose
Maria Aznar. Apparently the two have been
friends for a while, and were spotted
recently partying at Paris' Bristol hotel
with the Sarkozys and Julio Iglesias.
Aznar, you may remember, made his name
on his Islamaphobia. Dati is half Morrocan
and half Algerian.

Leather nights of Berlin
Last weekend was the Folsom Street Fair fetish
event in Berlin. The main party, PiG, was held
at a huge power station in Rummelsburg, East
Berlin. There were more than 3000 men in fetish
gear. Including George Michael. Nowadays gay
pop stars' dream is a West End Show. At
least George still shows them how it's
supposed to be done.
George has, rightly, been named as one of
Britain's top gays by Godhatesfags.com. Well
they call it "Poster Children for Sin" but we
prefer to accentuate the positives. Making up
the top five are Sir Elton John, Nicholas
Boles, Sir In McKellen and Boy George.

Ashton Kutcher gets on the web
Techcrunch 50 is, apparently, the Sundance of the
Tech Industry. It took place this week in San
Francisco, and Ashton Kutcher went along to launch
his new website. How 2001 of him! Our spy said:
* Demi Moore spotted wandering around "looking
shiny and expressionless" And she nearly broke
someone's nose trying out a Wii style golf game
on an iPhone.
* Ashton Kutcher "seemed to have B.O."
* Samantha Ronson DJd the Facebook afterparty:
"She did actually mix the records herself
(unlike Geldof, Lawler etc) but she wasn't very
good at it."
* Jack Johnson played the iPod press conference.
"He was rather good."
* Steve Jobs not dead, looks better than he did.
* Steve Wozniak is fat, but good-natured and
posed for photos with awestruck geeks.

A deaf old man goes for a checkup to the doctors
with his wife.
Doctor, slowly: "Mr Roberts, I need a urine sample,
a faeces sample and a sperm sample please".
"What did he say dear?" says old Mr Roberts.
Mrs Roberts: "He says he needs your underpants".
