Fyre Festival II
Everyone has heard of Fyre. The luxurious festival on a tropical island in the Bahamas that was reserved only for spoilt brats and the over privileged that turned out to be the biggest mess up of all time. It was such a calamity, it even had a Netflix documentary detailing just how close the whole thing came to a deadly disaster when there wasn’t enough food and water coming to the island to sustain all the rich revellers and just what lengths unsung hero Andy King was prepared to go to save the day.
But no news is bad news, right? And now Fyre is SO famous it would be a real mistake not to do the whole thing again. I mean, what could possibly go wrong?! Hope you like cheese sandwiches…

Keanu Reeves Goes To Prison
Finding the pressure of being the world’s nicest guy too much, our favourite floppy haired hunk Keanu Reeves finally snaps and goes on the rampage screaming in fans faces, tipping over vending machines to steal all the Mars bars and crashing a stolen milk cart into the front of an Oxfam in the high street of Durham during the subsequent sugar high. Expected to serve a minimum sentence of four years, Reeves will also have to attend the Britney Spears Clinic of Celerity Meltdowns before being allowed back into society.
