Well, its past 3am, and it really does look like were a long way from a clear result actually happening. And, going by the latest pictures on the BBC, were not even going to get the enthralling spectacle of (a) a fleet of tinted-windowed Sports Utility Vehicles circling around the PMs plane (ostensibly due to security concerns, but we suspect more because it all looks a bit 24-ish), as we saw in the 2005 General Election with Tony Blair

Its May the 6th, the day of the UK General Election, and The Sun are up to their usual tricks, shamefully appropriating Shepard Faireys iconic Barack Obama Hope Poster for their own needs, handily ignoring the fact it was another News International outlet that told so many desperate smears, half-truths and outright lies to try and prevent Barack Obama getting elected.

What with the BrokenTV team being a great big bunch of foulmouthed neer-do-wells, one thing that has always fascinated us is the history of swearing on various mediums. In the UK, as every schoolboy knows, Kenneth Tynan was the first person to say fuck on British television, in 1965, and a Frost-baiting Felix Dennis was the first to say cunt on-air, in 1970. The latter of these can be seen here, in the brilliant Without Walls documentary The Greatest F***ing Show On Television, put together by Britains Minister Of Swearing, Jerry Sadowitz. Both uses were broadcast live and very much against the wishes of the respective programme makers.

Ah, summers approaching. You know what this means? Thats right, a week stuck in a caravan park on the north Wales coastline, drinking warm Kestrel Lager with only the sound of the tinny iPod speaker you picked up from a pound shop and the relentless paradiddle of the never ending rain on the tin roof for company. Oh, and the repeated whining noise of your life partner reminding you how you pissed the holiday money away on a 3D-ready television set, and that this is all you now can afford.

Given this entertaining blog post, the Guardian certainly seem worried enough about the prospect of Tim Lovejoy taking over the soon-to-be-vacant presenters chair on Match Of The Day 2. And yet, we really can imagine it happening. Well, he does test well with the under-24s, we can imagine a clueless BBC commissioning editor uttering in Meeting Room C, and he really does encapsulate the fun element that were trying to convey with our Sunday night highlights show. A bit far-fetched? Dont forget, were only in this situation because BBC1 controller Jay Hunt had a bright idea along the lines of well, The One Show is doing very well in the ratings, but we need Chris Evans on Fridays to try and bring in some of the magic that made ITV1s OFI Sunday such a huge success back in 2005. Er, it was a success, wasnt it?

In the latest episode, where Amy is in the retro-future Britain starships information room, a display in the background of Starship UKs informational terror video looks kind of familiar. Look to the left of beardy-Mc-Infos shoulder here.

Its the running theme that just wont die. To round off the coverage of the 00s, just before we put the finishing touches to the book version of the Top 100*, heres a bit of analysis. We know how all of our readers love pointless bar charts. Also, a poll of polls, which should be really exciting for people who love polls.
