Going up... Aye, Eye
Reboots usually range from bad to sacrilegious... but the new Netflix version of Queer Eye (née For The Straight Guy) is a triumph – for so many reasons. Yes, of course, funny and entertaining – but also moving, thought-provoking, and unexpectedly faith-infellow-people-restoring.
Catwalk
Zappa is an Instagramfamous model who is inspired by Gigi Hadid and has a wardrobe of bespoke designer creations. Zappa has more than 70,000 social media followers. Zappa is a cat, obviously. This could easily be depressing, so let’s decide to find it motivating instead, agreed?
Going down... Packet racket
Outrage this week, when a coffee chain announced a meal deal with a photo of a packet of crisps that – you might want to sit down – had been opened at the bottom. Comments ranged from “disgusting!” to “cursed!” which is a new one, but makes sense. They couldn’t have got more attention if they’d done it on purpose to get attention. Oh.
Spice, spice baby
There’s been a YouGov survey to find out who the nation’s favourite Spice Girl is... and the answer was Baby. So there you go – a business did manage to make an April Fools joke that’s genuinely funny after all.
