Victor Kiam probably would, if he wasn't dead.

If I give you a handful of Turkish Lira and 10 pence can I have the Hollyoaks thread to adorn my wall?

"DigitalSpy's editorial team will report to Anna Jones, Hachette's head of marketing."
Rockets, arses, and 'up' all come to mind.

Who knows, maybe a few quid behind it will actually make it feel like less of a sixth-form termly newspaper as well? (And as long as GaySpy remains intact, I'm happy. It really is the pinnacle of all homosexuality, and has taught me to be the best gay I can possibly be.)
I'd also like to buy some shares in Lowculture. I'm actually just off to buy some Smokey BBQ Boneless Bites at KFC - if I get you a box, can I have 70% ownership?

Writing staff? I thought all Digital Spy did was plagiarize news wire stories and dryly catalogue who farted on Big Brother. Who knew!

So is that an in-joke that has just suddenly become clear to everyone else?

I guess my post was deleted for legal reasons, but I can assure you that it was all accurate.

I'm sure it was, but as they are now owned by an international corporation, I don't really fancy our chances in court.

Fair enough, sorry if I caused you any worry. I didn't fancy my chances at sueing back when they were independent so I definitely don't fancy them now. I'll stick to f-locks and PMs, Paul!

"DigitalSpy's editorial team will report to Anna Jones, Hachette's head of marketing." Rockets, arses, and 'up' all come to mind. Editorial staff should never report to marketing people - especially on a news-based site like Digital Spy. Hopefully, they'll have the budget for the redesign its been crying out for now

Hmmm. It's probably only a matter of time now before the The 'Is John-Paul Gay?' Thread Ltd is spun off as independent subsidiary...

It will just become bigger and attract even shit posters to their forums.

In relation to who reports to whom - Neil owns the site. He runs it with James and Alan. Dan is the Deputy Editor, which means that Neil tells Dan what to do, and Dan tells everyone else what to do, but Neil quite often also tells everyone what to do, plus the majority of staff work together in one tiny office in Waterloo - there is no such thing as a line manager at DS.

Apparently it's also HOT NEWS that the Boleg Bros do Lego-style Apprentice spoofs. Despite the fact that they have been making these since series 2.

I was always under the impression you could buy Digital Spy for a blowjob and a two-for-one KFC voucher. I'm actually slightly impressed.

Their new reporter Simon Reynolds is quite good looking though. I propose an inter-forum meet up. And Olly, I think. I love how the team are basically a group of geeky young boys. Anna Jones (whoever SHE is) will eat them for breakfast. Which makes me a bit disapointed by this actually as I quite liked the fact Digitalspy was a bit rubbish. Ugh, and I hate GaySpy.

Bless them, they look more like a chess club or a medieval re-enactment society.
I used to know a Nick Levine who was an absolute retarded hedge-pig, and always assumed it was the same one that did GaySpy. Turns out not.

Desperate Housewives' Jesse Metcalfe is reportedly a big fan of women with large breasts.
The only thing missing from that headline is a question mark at the end.
