Top Gear, the worlds favorite television car show, has a problem.  The primary issue at the moment is Richard Hammond. Now, He’s a good lad, but it seems he can’t drive for shite – he’s gone and crashed another car, thankfully this time he’s not so seriously injured as his last escapade, but nevertheless – I have my doubts that Top Gear’s insurers are going to like having him behind the wheel next year. Let’s hope I’m wrong.

We all know there is nothing on TV.  There has been no decent content on Australian Television for over a decade, with the slide into oblivion being heralded by big brother.  There has been, though, the occasional reprieve via Australian Idol.  Tonight was not one of those nights.  I’d hoped that with SuzieQ as guest we’d see some talent, but tonight just saw Ashleigh booted out the airlock, leaving the wall-eyed fellow looking lost on stage.  Sabrina never fails to disapoint – tonight she was a screechy off-key mess. The judges like it though, maybe I’m getting old.  I’ll take raw talent over cute-ness everytime.  I’m not one of the voting tweens that keep this show on-air though, so I’ll keep my aged mutterings to a minimum.
