Whatever’s on my mind really.

A peek at illustration inspiring celebrity sexiness, quirky news stories from inherently pornified pop culture, tips, sketchbook and work in progress, reviews and other things of interest; whatever’s on my mind really—which more fool you if you ever take that seriously.

Latest Picks is a sort of mini-blog for daily thoughts and picks. Longer articles, stories & sketches are found in the full-size blog, where indeed Latest Picks are moved when updates to a story make it too large.

Note: Both Latest Picks and Blog are to be retired at the end of September, although both will remain available indefinitely as an archived part of the site. No further updates to past stories will be made.

Sir Bruce Forsyth obituary: a TV presenter in a class of his own (theguardian.com).

Bruce Forsyth Bruce Forsyth

“Bruce Forsyth, who has died aged 89, was associated with some of the most successful shows in television history, from Sunday Night at the London Palladium in the late 1950s to The Generation Game in the 1970s and, for a decade from 2004, Strictly Come Dancing, a light-entertainment phenomenon that attracts a third of the viewing audience to BBC1 on a Saturday night.

“As a compere, game-show host and fleet-footed comedian, he was in a class of his own, providing an authentic link between the old days of variety, where he started as a youthful sensation during the second world war, and the new craze for audience participation and reality television.”

Indeed, and with a TV career spanning more than 75 years with Guinness World Records recognising Forsyth as having the longest television career for a male entertainer (Wikipedia), it certainly was a “good game, good game” and “didn’t he do well” (thesun.co.uk).

And, who else could have caused a Mandela effect (knowyourmeme.com) on Rodan’s The Thinker: Mandela Effect—Sir Bruce Forsyth, The Thinker and The Generation Game (GoogleTube).
