Awful Tower of London review

Was that first paragraph really needed? It doesn't even make much sense given the rest of the review. :roll: Trying too hard to be clever I think.

I don't see anything homophobic there. Am I reading the same review as you?

If you'd seen and heard Simon Price interview the Human League on their Very Best Of DVD I don't think you'd ever think of him as homophobic, if you know what I mean :wink:

Not sure doll, just don't like how he introduces it, but never mind we'll agree to disagree, maybe wanker was a bit harsh!!

The only bad think is when he insinuates it's too much camp (I'm agree).

Least of all you, eh?

How much are your 'girlfriends' rates these days? An hourly rate?

INothing wrong with the review I think he more or less makes the observation about the lack of mystery and moodiness about the boys pre-1990, which arguably made them more interesting.

Hardly homophobic. Isn't The Independent gayer than the Guardian? It's no more homophobicv than Shelton or gayer than Nickname.
