EXTRA, EXTRAS - READ ALL ABOUT IT!

For fans of music, seeing The Dame compose a song, crafting the lyrics, "Chubby little loser - no, pathetic little fat man" would be enough in normal circumstances. That it is also the funniest TV sketch of the last five years is just a big fat, puck nosed bonus. See David Bowie tear down Ricky Gervais on youtube here or download the second series of Extras here.

Wolf & Cub

You know what it's like - you start a band with your mates, and two of them play drums. What do you do? If you're Aussie stoner rockers Wolf & Cub you keep them both, of course. Their debut album Vessels features with two drummers, playing at the same time. And released on the legendary 4AD label, it's totally free for you lovely Wippit subscribers.

The Lancashire Hotpots

Listing flat cap, whippets and the vowels 'e' and 'i' among their influences, it's not difficult to guess where The Lancashire Hotpots hail from. With their tales of modern life (check out the tracklisting for a sample), the Hotpots are unashamedly just a little bit geeky, but we love them for it - think a 21st century version of the Shirehorses. Grab your flat cap and get on down with the Hotpots today.

Right Sud Fred

There is an old showbiz maxim, 'once you've done Daz, there's no looking back' referring to the career boost that actors in Daz soap powder commercials receive after appearing in the washing suds ads. It may just be luvvie superstition but look at the facts; Shane Richie went on to star in 'popular' soap opera about everyday North London folk with exaggerated pre-war cockney accents, 'The Eastenders', Danny Baker now hosts the most successful podcast on the planet and even has own radio show in the English village of London. Former Daz ad directors Francis Ford Coppola and a young man then known only as S.S.Pielberg also went on to direct Beverly Hills 90210 and Newsnight respectively. Now it's the turn of 90s pop funsters, Right Said Fred. Originally a Bernard Cribbins tribute act RSF shot to international fame with I'm Too Sexy and now they've done it again – after appearing on a Daz TV ad! Enlisting remixers and studio whiz kids to give the strippers anthem a new lease of life we bring you lucky Wippit subscribers I'm Too Sexy 2007!
