1. Liam Gallagher culinary critic on The F Word
Billed as this year's comeback kings, Oasis delivered some excellent live shows and the new album had its moments, too â€' particularly Liam's 'I'm Outta Time'. But his finest hour, surely, came with this surreal guest appearance on Gordon Ramsay's The F-Word. Wife Nic Appleton and fellow All Saint Mel Blatt have been cooking up a storm with their mums when the chef decides to see who's eating out front.
Gordon Ramsay: Good to see you.
Liam Gallagher: And you, brother.
GR: How you doing?
LG: Yeah, very hot. Chilled out now.
GR: What do you think of the food?
LG: Your fucking sweet potatoes are bobbins, man, because my missus does better than that.
GR: So bobbins means what? Shit?
LG: Yeah, shit, because it's a bit like clumpy....
And on the question of how Liam would fare with Noel in the kitchen? 'I reckon his head would be firmly pressed against one of those hot things.'
2. Jeremy Paxman left speechless by Dizzee
In the wake of Barack Obama's election win, Newsnight's presenter asks: 'Mr Rascal, do you feel yourself to be British?'. The forthright response â€' 'Of course I'm British, man. You know me! I think it don't matter what colour you are, it matters what colour your heart is, and your intentions.... I think a black man, a purple man, a Martian man can run the country' â€' leaves Paxo...
Those punkin' instigators in the Prodigy are back, and they've got an awfully stern warning for all who dare intrude. Invaders Must Die is the band's fifth studio LP, due March 2 in the UK and March 3 in the States on the band's own Take Me to the Hospital imprint, via Cooking Vinyl.
The 11-track set is bolstered by some drum work from Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl, and, of course, plenty of outsized beats besides. Check out the video for the title track below; if you act fast, you can also score a radio edit of the song right here.
The band will spend a good bit of the next several months on the road, including a string of dates in April with a certain Dizzee Rascal.
