Tourist Information Of The Week
William Shatner presenting Have I Got News For You was always going to be good, but who knew it was going to be awesome ? Who cares that he couldn’t read the autocue? It wouldn’t have been half as much fun if he could. Or if he had ever heard of "Ian Hilsop” and “Paul Morton”. Stand out moments included his typically unique rendition of the Sex Pistols' “God Save The Queen” and his instant review of the town of “Ifracoooooooooombe” (above). Whoever booked him for the show deserves a knighthood.
Des Res Of The Week

Cheat Of The Week
Portal makes a glorious return to its natural habitat – Spurious Awards – in this delightfully silly video that imagines what Street Fighter 2 would be like if there were a cheat that allowed you to use a Portal gun. Easy, basically.
Recession-Friendly Present Of The Week
Feeling a little cash-strapped? Son or daughter’s birthday coming up? Now you can promise them a lightsaber, a Transformer, a Tyrannosaurus and/or anything else you can think of and not break the bank. By giving them Lego. Oh, you could give them Play-Doh as well (because Hasbro has clearly nicked this ad idea off the Lego campaign) but then you’d be stuck with odd-smelling putty being trod into your carpets.
New Doctor Who Adventure Of The Week
