I can’t think of anything less interesting really.

Maybe the News of the World has disposed of the one remaining journalist it had left. That’ll be down to the recession then

So, where do they get their stories from? Must be club bouncers, office cleaners and taxi drivers…

While Eastwood may have been a model of modesty at yesterday’s ceremony, he was rather more outspoken in an interview earlier in the week. Speaking to the German magazine Der Spiegel, Eastwood, currently seen in cinemas as an unreconstructed racist ex-soldier in Gran Torino, railed against what he sees as a culture of political correctness that has effectively outlawed jokes about people’s nationality or ethnicity. “People have lost their sense of humour,” he insisted. “In former times we constantly made jokes about different races. [But] you can only tell them today with one hand over your mouth, otherwise you will be insulted as a racist. I find it ridiculous.”

He added: “In those earlier days every friendly clique had a ‘Sam the Jew’ or ‘Jose the Mexican’ – but we didn’t think anything of it or have a racist thought.”
