Jóhann Jóhannsson: Award-winning Icelandic composer dies aged 48
Baz Re: Jóhann Jóhannsson: Award-winning Icelandic composer dies aged 48 [ more ]
Eugene's Lair As it happens, I saw "The Mercy" last night. It not exactly the cheeriest of movies anyway, but knowing that the soundtrack was one of Jóhannsson's last brought a lump to the throat. (I believe his very last soundtrack was for "Mary Magdalene", which is released next month.) [ more ]

Saint Wonder if this is hand in hand with a Gov request? Make sizes smaller so people eat less naughty food but as a 'repayment' for your co-operation companies can keep prices the same or more? [ more ]

Saint In that profession you have to be likable or a likable pantomime villain 'or' own the company. And it's worrying someone can just be 'got rid of' if their face no longer fits. A very precarious profession [ more ]

The Fall singer Mark E Smith dies aged 60
Amythist The Fall were an essential part of our pre going out rituals at one time....putting on make up ,choosing clothes and generally getting excited about the weekend! Totally Wired was a song I remember...they were different and were ahead of the game and not afraid to take risks, didnt compromise and sell out ..bands and people like Mark E Smith are rare gems in a sea of plastic [ more ]
Saint Oh I think they would have formed [ more ]
Eugene's Lair Wiki lists a number of bands who've acknowledged The Fall's influence on their work, including Pavement, Happy Mondays, Sonic Youth, The Pixies, These New Puritans and LCD Soundsystem. Many of them have covered Fall songs at some point. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...%28band%29#Influence I don't think I'm stretching it to suggest you can detect hints of Smith's darkness, edginess, and even humour in some of those bands, however I also think you have to be careful about reading too much...

Saint BBSPY has reported, C5 boss Ben Frow admitted : “I would be much happier with a channel that did not have Big Brother on it.” A source added: “Big Brother is a very expensive format for Channel 5 and it’s getting to the point where it just isn’t worth the hefty price tag. There is still time for the bosses at Channel 5 to change their mind, but it is not looking likely.” The SUN reported, “It’s far too early to suggest it’s the end of Big Brother, quite the opposite, so fans can relax.

The actor Peter Wyngarde has died aged 90
Saint Just been reading it What a bizarre character Leaves no known living family "Petunia Winegum" LOL [ more ]
El Loro In some ways, particularly his very early life, are a bit unknown. He could have been born any time between 1924 and 1933. Was he born in Singapore or Marseille? Was he Peter Paul Wyngarde or Cyril Louis Goldbert? An international man of mystery. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Wyngarde [ more ]

Rodrigo Lopes has NOT died
Eugene's Lair In these days of "fake news" it's understandable for people to be sceptical. However; at the risk of reading too much into it, I got the impression from a later tweet that it wasn't a random attack, and she knew - or at least suspected - who was responsible. Rebekah Shelton ‏ Verified account @ MissRShelton Jan 12 I’m not dead!!!!!! Please stop spreading this news!!!!!

New Year, New Avatar
Eugene's Lair Yeah: I've mentioned this before, but my name comes from one of the levels of the old Spectrum game "Manic Miner" (the baddy "Eugene" was an in-joke aimed at rival games programmer Eugene Evans). Although I'd been lurking since BB3, I finally joined the old C4 forum during BB6, and my username was meant as a jokey reference to my favourite HM of that year (and still one of my all-time favourites), Eugene Sully. My avatar's from a screen shot of the game, whereas that picture is a... [ more ]
Enthusiastic Contrafibularities @Eugenes Lair I'm assuming it's a character from a game (I'm not a gamer myself). But it also looks quite 8-bit, you could use an application to create a better quality picture, but keeping the low tech look. I found this doing a quick reverse Google look-up. [ more ]
