When you think about it, it's obvious isn't it.
She might only have a five second part, but that's all it took.
It's all part of the Mandy Richardson curse. Stay away from that one.

Diary of a Media Cynic
As we all know, I've been a professional cynic since pretty much the moment of conception (my heart's not in it though).
My number one cynical observation of the media has to be my stunning critique that the reason they don't want us to study it (and so deride it so often) is because they don't want us to know what's really going on, and bring them crumbling down. Hey they've got to make money haven't they, and if we all know what's really going on, then maybe we won't buy their papers.
I, for one, don't buy so many papers anymore because I'm of the belief that there's a global paper conspiracy, and that if we consume too much newspaper ink, we're all going to die. And that's a fact. It must be, because I read it in the Daily Express, and we know how great they are, really.
So from now on, I've decided to keep a diary of all my cynical observations and let you lucky, lucky folk here at blog central read it. You can feel all naughty for reading someone else's diary (which I'm told you're not supposed to do, but have always found the rule very boring) and I can take some joy in deriding the world. Well let's face it, as a cynic, there's not going to be much joy felt, but that's OK, it just gives me something else to complain about.
That's all for now folks, keep media savvy, but above all, don't trust anything.
