Charting In The UK

Guardian Unlimited: Arts blog - TV & radio: This week's top 10 web picks:

1. Fraters Libertas
Well worth visiting, not only for a selection of excellent and funny interviews, but also for the Brothers (Fraters) insights into the recent abduction of the 15 British sailors. By the way, on that subject you might also care to take a look at this.

2. Smosh
Wonderfully, inspiringly inane site devoted to the lives of two deliberately cretinous mop-topped American indie kids (they look like they should support the Dandy Warhols). This week, one of them gets a haircut - in order to get a girl. It's the painful amateur dramatics that make it so watchable.

3. Fox News April Fools
To counter the sometimes scary right-wing stuff you will have heard on Fraters Libertas, I thought I should include this, yet another example of the breathtaking pro-Bush bias on Fox News. Thus, when Fox viewers are asked to vote for the most foolish American of the year, and duly vote for their president, Fox, clearly aghast, award the title to Britney Spears. Even as the actual results are appearing on screen. Amazing stuff.
