FORUMS

Here's a question on everyone's mind......if you could fill a 747 full of annoying celebrities and then crash it into a mountain, who would you put on the plane?

So it might not be in good taste but, who cares? Every week we'll check in some more celebs who deserve nothing less.

Check out who's already on their last flight and let us know who you think should be next....

We need your gossip and your pictures

• Out on a Friday night and seen Winehouse jacking up in the toilets?
• Doherty curled up outside your front door?
• Seen Spears hauling her drunken redneck ass out of an LA bar in the early hours?
• Walking down the street and Posh faints through lack of food and talent?

Let us know and we'll let the world know.

Email your pics and your gossip to....

The good people at Escapework.net have always been ones to talk a little bit of horse.

Consequently, we are going to be bringing to you our phrase of the moment.

Delving into our linguistic archives, we will bring you a new term to add to the colourful lexicon that is the English language!

This weeks term is:

Console History

A Console History is the term used when describing ones own history of electronic game playing throughout the ages.

One may use the term when describing playing a particular type of game genre over say a period of 20 years.

When to use it?

Let's say there is an email thread discussing say football games ranging from Pele Soccer on the Atari, via Kick off 2 on the Amiga, right through to current games on the PS3.

One person could claim that they are a better player of sports simulators as they have a longer/ better console history than someone who specialised in RPGs or Platfrom games.

Another phrase next week

Cast your mind's eye back to your childhood...

Remember when certain people were on top of their game.... Ever wondered what happened to a childhood TV presenter that you fancied? Well wonder no more!

The good people at Escapework.net are dusting off their Peter Falk-esque jackets and breaking out their magnifying glasses to dig around and find out what happened to the lost celebrities of your childhood.
