joe cocker was described as ‘the legend’ ? pffft… never sang anything original and was often so drunk he didn’t cash his royalty cheques. i worked for an animatronic company about 15 years ago making christmas figures all year round. in my workshop i was surrounded by dead-eyed puppets staring at me while i did this. ‘interstellar’ lasted about 40 minutes before i switched it off; and i can sit through some sci-fi nonsense. russell brand is associated with the goldman-sachs banking empire, yet masquerades as a man-of-the-people / spread-the-wealth liberal with £15 million in his back pocket. a hypocrite, a fraud, a horse-toothed unfunny messiah for people who don’t read.
