1:30PM Clem Bastow | Well, we were just talking (in a round-about manner coughcoughXENUcough) about James Packer this morning, so what a surprise to see him pop up in the news this lunchtime – either we’re plugged into the collective unconscious, or I don’t know what.

9:00AM Clem Bastow | Do you remember, way back in the olden times of July 2008, when then-Australia’s Next Top Model host Jodhi Meares mysteriously disappeared from the live finale, because she’d apparently “never agreed to do a live show of that scale”?
