• BBC's Topless Ambition

  Kirsten O'Brien just did a documentary called Kirsten's Topless Ambition for BBC3, which is all about her boobs. More specifically, the documentary discusses the question that has been bugging women in the entertainment industry for years: should I take my boobs out for a wank mag like FHM or keep getting stuck in this Grade-Z TV rut?

• Sloppy Seconds: Hand Jobs Involving the Mouth

  The teabagging hilarity continues: this roundup of great tea puns is well worth checking out. Brad Garrett yelled at paparazzi about "turbans" and is now accused of making racial slurs.

• The Best Sendup of Facebook Yet

  Facebook! Am I right, people? It's freaky to be online "friends" with people you remember not particularly liking back in grammar school. But now that we're all adults, you have to accept these people's friend requests or it would be awkward in some modern way when you eventually run into them at a reunion or somewhere. Plus, once "friends," you can read their "25 RandomThings About Me" list and realize how much it reflects their insecurities. You can look at their lame life as represented on their profile and you can think to yourself, Who is popular now? Who has designer jeans now!??!  Ahem. Anyway, the sketch group Idiots of Ants (above) did a bit acting out Facebook in real life for the BBC Three show "The Wall," and while the show itself is now over, this video will live on as a great zing on Facebook culture. This is the most viewed BBC Three YouTube clip of all time, BTW. Read More...

• Sloppy Seconds: Boy George's Plea to Amy Winehouse

  The BBC is defending a gay kiss on its hit show East Enders. [Queerty] Why are we so much more likely to believe that a shark had a virgin birth than a human?

• Sloppy Seconds: Carla Bruni-Sarkozy's Rock Star Performance

  This is not a joke or a rumor we're trying to start about Sarah Palin, but apparently her personal email account (that she used to conduct government business) has been hacked. [techPresident] Is it bad to laugh at this headline? [Naked Man Running Through Traffic Dies] Okay, but we can laugh at this one, right? [R. Kelly says he was betrayed during porn probe] Whatever you do, do not send Brokeback Mountain author Annie Proulx your happy endings. [Defamer] Read More...

• New Gemma Arterton Sex Scene Steams Us Up For Bond 22

  Gemma Arterton may not be the sexiest but she is inarguably the cutest Bond Girl ever cast. We were already dying to see Bond 22 (aka "Quantum of Solace"-- ugh, come on, what is it, directed by George Lucas?) without her involvement and now, with her casting and the following screencaps and sex scene clip from her latest film, we're positively foaming at the mouth. And Scanner has obtained an exclusive high quality version of the scene, after the jump... Read More...

• 90-Year-Old Woman Served Lunch By Half-Naked Man (And It's Her Make-A-Wish Wish, Too)

  Normally, the St. Austel nursing home gets "final" requests for things like a golf game or a visit from the grandkids-- you know, peaceful day trips ending with a beer. They usually don't get a request from their very elderly patients for male staff members to serve fish and chips without their clothes on... Read More...

• 10 Things That Make Men Cry

  Did you know that there are ten whole things that will make a man cry? Did you also know that we are somehow still in an age wherein the BBC would consider ten whole things that make men -- nay!-- "blokes" cry news? Read More...

• What Do We Think About Britain's Missing Top Model?

  Our first reaction was three words: a new low. But the more we think about the BBC's latest model reality show, premiering Tuesday night, the more we think it may be a largely positive idea... The show, which is obviously a takeoff of America's Next Top Model, is unfortunately called Britain's Missing Top Model, which you would think means it's a detective show with the English version of Hayden Panettiere or something. Nope-- instead, it features... Read More...

• Introducing The Mighty Boosh and Its Crack Fox

  We just discovered the BBC program The Mighty Boosh. We're still not quite sure what it is exactly besides hilarious. In the bit below Vince visits the Crack Fox at his home where "everything is different," we hear the story of the Crack Fox's descent into poverty and vice, and somehow there's also a racist badger. And, yes, it's as bizarre as it sounds.   Read More... Posted Jun 06 2008, 01:02 PM by Nicole Pasulka with | with 4 comment(s) Filed under: crack cocaine, BBC, mighty boosh, crack fox

• From the Medical News Vault: Male Masturbation 'Cuts Cancer Risk'

  A former college professor forwarded this article from 2003 on to us this week with the subject line, "Ignore at your own risk!!!! For God's sake!!!" And yes, in case you were wondering, we did go to a liberal arts school in New York. Anyway, we thought it was worth sharing since we missed it the first time around (did you?) and this is information that could save lives. Men could reduce their risk of developing prostate cancer through regular masturbation, researchers suggest. They say cancer-causing chemicals could build up in the prostate if men do not ejaculate regularly. Read More...

• Videos of the Day: "The Swiss Spaghetti Harvest of 1957" and "The Day Today"

  Probably our favorite filmed April Fools hoax of all time is this: the normally staid BBC's 1957 attempt to make its viewers believe that spaghetti grew on trees. Sublime, no? But do we ask ourselves the larger question: is this the birth of fake news? Hard to say, though we'd sure love to know if Christopher Morris -- creator of the seminal mid-90's fake news radio series On The Hour and, later on TV, The Day Today -- had seen it before he started doing his surreal, occasionally foulmouthed takes on the bluster of mass media news. It's a surprisingly short jump, after all, between this and a fake news show using, as its tagline, "Thrusting deep inside the news whore." Or is it? Judge for yourself -- full pilot episode of The Day Today after the jump, featuring a very young Steve Coogan. Read More...
