Quote of the day

"The other day I ate so much toast I had to lie down"

Jonathan Ross might be more than a bit smarmy, but he does at least have a knack of drawing embarrassing confessions out of his guests - and himself (see above). Last night he got Ian Wright to admit the reason he likes the "larger lady" is because of an attraction to one of his aunts as an eight-year-old. An apparently drunk and giggly Brenda Blethyn needed rather less cajoling to reveal that she pissed on the collar of her Oscar outfit shortly before taking to the stage to collect her award and embrace Nicholas Cage...

Musical guests were Sparks, who played new single 'Dick Around' and (inevitably) 'This Town Ain't Big Enough For The Both Of Us' - both suggesting that the brothers Mael think 'Bohemian Rhapsody' is the finest song in the history of recorded music and thus should be the blueprint for everything they do. I think Ron Mael might have the most curious and distinctive moustache I've ever seen - it hugs his upper lip so tightly that it looks as though it's scared of falling off.

Update: Olav has taken great pleasure in pointing out that 'This Town...' was released in 1974, a year before 'Bohemian Rhapsody'. OK, OK, Mr Smartypants. The similarities are still striking, though.
