Television
Match of the Day, Soccer AM, Grange Hill (back in the day, with gripper, tucker, Alan and Benny Green), Little Britain, Young Ones, Bottom, Johnny Jarvis (circa 1983 Grange Hill spin-off, anyone watch it?), Fast Show (GENIUS), I'm Alan Partridge (TORTURED GENIUS), Saxondale (I am a Saxondale, and I know a lot of other Saxondales), League of Gentleman, Biog Channel, History Channel. Anything with Nigella Lawson, Sarah Beeney, Joely Richardson, or Nicky Hambleton-Jones. Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares.

Books
Biogs and non-fiction are my preference. There's far too many fantastic stories in real life to start trying to invent better ones. Other books I like to read include the works of Charles Bukowski, Hunter S thompson, Alduous Huxley, Milan Kundera, Pat Barker and Henry Rollins.
Heroes
Mum & Dad, Jimi Hendrix, Frank Zappa, Phil Lynott, Glenn Hoddle, Bill Nicholson "Mr Tottenham", Georgie Best, Our club Captain (and pure genius) Robbie Keane.
Gordon "Jukebox" Durie, the man with the best nickname in football. Austrian international Ernst "Clockwork" Ocwirk for coming a close second...
Jamie Oliver and the Cast of Lazytown for trying to wean our kids off junk food...
