"They sort of walked in with
full-on shades and a hood over them, like in disguise, being
incognito," he said. "Atomic Kitten are not The Beatles, I'm
sorry, but they aren't. Oh dear, stop with the disguises."
I had an email the other day
with news that series 4 of the Royle Family is to be screened
on BBC1 in April of this year. To my knowledge they have no
plans for any further series as yet. Can anyone confirm this
fact? Email: [email protected]
Noel Gallagher has recorded
a version of Slade's 'Merry Christmas Everybody' for the Christmas
edition of 'The Royle Family', but there are no plans to release
it as a single.

The song was aired on BBC radio
1 throughout December. Oasis have confirmed they'll be gigging
again this year, but you'll have to travel a long way to see
them. They'll be on the same bill as REM, Beck and Neil Young
at the Buenos Aires Hot Festival on January 18th.
