    It could be said Coogan took as much care, painstaking precision and research as DeNiro did on Jake LaMotta, or Daniel Day Lewis on Abraham Lincoln. For comedy I don't think I've seen a better depiction of a comedy character.

    The drummer in my band is in his mid-60s and, every time someone mentions Led Zeppelin, he says "I was always more of a Deep Purple fan myself." If anyone knows of a compilation of every example of Saxondale being a militant Purple fan and dumping on Led Zep, please point me in that direction. I always champion Jeff Beck over Jimmy Page so I'm just as bad!!

    As much as Tommy Saxondale is a bit of a dinosaur he is right to have a dig at his old mate. There is nothing wrong with cutting your hair, changing your look, and changing your lifestyle but to just be so dismissive about his youth and the fun times they had shows it isn't really growth.
    We all act like like idiots when we are young, and quite a lot of us still do stupid things as we get older. Idolising those times like Tommy does might be a bit sad, but being so critical of them isn't really any better.
