“Sledgehammer” is the biggest hit of Peter Gabriel’s solo career and his only #1 single on the Billboard Hot 100 (1986). Its revolutionary music video, directed by Stephen R. Johnson, featured groundbreaking stop-motion, claymation, and pixilation work by Aardman Animations (the Wallace & Gromit studio) and the Brothers Quay. Gabriel spent a grueling 16 hours lying motionless under a glass plate while animators worked frame-by-frame around him. The entire shoot was an exhausting, week-long production. The result? It won a record 9 awards at the 1987 MTV Video Music Awards (including Video of the Year) and remains the most played music video in MTV history.

A way to go but the fat lady isn't even anywhere near the building yet. .. In other news - stop quizzing the coach. Play your own game. #EmmaRaducanu #Queens

Come on Emma. Let's have a big win today. Don't be over-cautious. Stop thinking about injury. Just play tennis like you know you can. Free your mind. The rest will follow. #EmmaRaducanu 🎾 #Queens

I've criticised her in the past regarding seemingly endless injury woes and ad campaigns prioritised over #tennis etc .. But fair play to her - She's been great at #Queens Two quality victories in one day. Well done #EmmaRaducanu Fantastic. Now go and win that final, Emma. 🎾

The word is *probably* .. Using the term 'prolly' is not a valid option. Stop being a twat.

Not a word I use often but yeah, one of my heroes is #MalcolmMcDowell Fucking great. Everything about him. Just great. First seen him in Lindsay Anderson's 1968 film #If when it was shown on tv in the early 1970s Superb film. McDowell shines.

'NewRose' was/is a great record. #TheDamned #1976SummerOfHeat In other news - Sorry not sorry, Toyah but the 'pogo' had nothing to do with the Masai warriors. 🙄 It was just kids whacked out on speed jumping up and down, babes. 😉

Legend. #SAHB

So yeah. Self made (not fucking 'artisan') vegetable curry with rice and chips .. Roast beef sarnies .. Liquid Refreshment .. .. and football. Fucking nailed it. Up the jocks for later. #NoFliesOnFuckface 👌 #WorldCup
