Kate Nash, Band of Horses, Plan B, Spacial AKA… This weeks Later started with Kate Nash singing a song called Do-Wah-Do. She played piano and sang in a strong cockney accent very reminiscent of Lilly Allen. The Lyrics to her songs were very similar to Lilly Allen’s too, domestic issues, kitchen sink dramas etc. Kate’s [...]

Hong Kong 30th October 2010 It is time Channel 7 lost the rights to Rugby Union coverage. The final Bledisloe Cup game is played in Hong Kong today at 3:30PM Perth time, but despite having 3 different stations, Channel 7 choose to show the game at 1:25AM on Sunday morning, 10 hours after it was [...]

Channel 10 Disappoint I have to say I am extremely disappointed with Channel 10‘s coverage of the Commonwealth Games, after their coverage of the Rugby World Cup in 2007 I was hoping for a lot more. I find that most of 10′s coverage is smoke and mirrors with multiple replays of some events, while others [...]
