In the news:

  • We put our ducks in a row for the new year, brought you up to date and loved you for helping us iron out those new look kinks. There’s still a few of them about so please keep commenting and playing with our buttons.

  • The atheist bus hit the streets and now it’s down to the Advertising Standards Authority to prove the existence of God.

  • Look at all those cabs! And that U-boat! Watch out for the drug dog. And sad farewell to the romantically derelict disused Primrose Hill railway station

  • With gloomadon poppers forecasting the extinction of Morris dancing we dug up our local troops, formed a square and yelled “hey”.

    What’s hot:

  • Book now: The Bridge Project at The Old Vic, Strictly stars at Sadlers Wells, Takeover at Royal Festival Hall, NKOTB at Hammersmith Apollo!
