T5 - the new Terminator sequel in which desperate humans do battle with out-of-control machines at Heathrow Airport.

A flashmob, nay Rickmob, singing a cheesy 80's pop song, bouncing off a recent internet fad, all filming one another, many wearing V for Vendetta masks, as recently sported at anti-Scientology gatherings, which were instigated by a You Tube video. We reckon London has just self-referenced itself up its own turd chute. Video by the rickrollerz.......

This is the final month of the Moore at Kew exhibition, the kind of attraction that "Don't Miss" columns were invented for. 28 monumental sculptors by Henry Moore are scattered throughout the grounds. Our very own Tiki Chris has recorded them in this video, with soundtrack by the pandas.......

Subtitled 'An ode to the Hawley Arms' this catchy tune by OllyTheOctopus speculates on the possible causes and fallout from the recent conflagration. How will Kate Moss cope with the loss, and will Quinn's down the road, cope with the load? Pertinent questions, but we're most tickled by the notion that 'Noel Fielding's impractical clothes, stopped him getting to the hose'. A work of minor genius.......

Video. Everyone's at it. After our recent clip showing the haunted vaults beneath London Bridge and Stompie the Bermondsey tank, we thought it was about time to make a regular slot for this not-so-new medium.
