Plus: Amanda Peet finds the "fucking funny" in menopause.
Irn-Bru’s World Cup ad starring Susan Boyle and John McGinn turns Scotland’s 28-year return into a funny, smart and unmistakably Scottish anthem.
John Hansard Gallery, Southampton Farewell Sweet Innocence references cinema, football, music and Windrush – it’s about trying to fit in, but always falling short, even as a Turner-nominated artist There’s that old Marxist (Groucho, not Karl) saying about refusing to join any club that would have you as a member. Simeon Barclay takes that idea one step further in his work, because he knows that even if the club would have him, he’d never be truly accepted anyway. He calls his show in Southampton “a lament of sorts, to access and loss”. It comes just a few weeks after he got nominated for the Turner prize, and it’s a damn fine argument for why he should probably win it. This is an exhibition all about exclusion, about trying to fit in but never quite managing. It’s razor-sharp, funny, pop-cultural, obtuse conceptual art about growing up black in Britain, about trying to make it and knowing you’re bound to fail, because the system is geared towards failure.

I just spent two weeks in a broken Britain, which is an unfortunately apt description for a country that has fallen from its former glory. Its people are funny, witty, creative, intelligent, sports-mad and educated, part of a society that has constantly evolved over the last millennium, its imperial heritage bringing in cultures from around the globe. It is a green and pleasant land, beautiful in spring and summer, and not too bad in the autumn. Yet the once great nation is now dealing with a...
Russian President Vladimir Putin dismissed as “nonsense” the suggestion that Russia might attack a NATO member state.
The JPMorgan CEO sees something funny going on with borrowed money: "Corporations, it's just not all automatically, they're all geniuses all of a sudden."
Faces are saved, barely, as the body goes wholly to ruin in “Savage House,” a mordantly amusing tale of pretense, profligacy and the literally maddening pressures of the English class ladder — written and directed with surgical cruelty by, as it happens, an American. Arriving 12 years after his debut, the derivative indie romcom “The […]
Chris Hemsworth, Elsa Pataky left stranded after major passport error Chris Hemsworth recently shared a funny family travel story that once left him unable to board an international flight. The 42-year-old actor recalled the incident during an interview with his wife, Elsa Pataky,...
EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: Harry Enfield has revealed that years of daily cold-water swimming in north London have left him with a serious health condition.
Readers strike an encouraging note for those sceptical of the joys of Proust, saying it has plenty to make it worth perservering I read all seven volumes of Marcel Proust’s In Search of Lost Time over a nine-month period. In answer to Mike Bromberg (Letters, 26 May), a great deal happens besides the famous madeleine incident: the advent of electric lighting, motorcars and aeroplanes, not to mention endless romances and social intrigues. My memory is that every hundred pages or so of tedium would yield five to 10 pages of the most revelatory reading that I have ever experienced. Was it worth it? Totally. Would I do it again? Probably not. But I won the bet. Bill Gaver London • Proust is not inaccessible. I read most of it in French on the Métro during my year abroad in Paris. It was the 1960s, and being buried in a book was a good way of deterring unwanted male attention. For anyone who fears that nothing happens, read on – there is a great variety of sex, for example, and plenty of it. Continue reading...
After years of reinvention, the '30 Rock' creator has landed somewhere unexpected: a show where grief is funny, characters actually change and the laughs-per-minute benchmark no longer applies.

A surprising romance is set against a backdrop of climate crisis, political instability and corporate corruption in this bleak but witty novel Rosa Rankin-Gee follows her 2021 near-future climate-crisis dystopia, Dreamland, with a similar but more politically focused work. As I read My Only Boy, I kept having to remind myself that the nation it describes is not (yet) real, because, for a reader living abroad, the novel’s England seems unnervingly close to what might come next. Any political dystopia risks being overtaken by reality, but in this case the gap between truth and fiction feels claustrophobic. At the beginning of the novel, Elle is at a party held to mourn that day’s election of a far-right populist government. She’s the communications director for the almost too brilliantly named Gigr, a company connecting people seeking immediate shift work with businesses offering it. Elle is freshly upset by witnessing and immediately containing the reputational damage of a worker’s jump from a balcony. She knows how to do this, because “we’d had a death every four weeks, then every three weeks, then every two”: exhausted, starving people taking underpaid shifts from Gigr after finishing public sector jobs that no longer pay enough for survival. Almost everyone, in this slightly more desperate, divided and unfair nation, ends up doing some work for Gigr sooner or later, to buy faster access to emergency healthcare or food for crisis-stricken family, and Gigr has algorithms to ensure that each person is paid the least their particular circumstances oblige them to accept.

Landry Shamet's postseason started with him tied to the bench. He, crept back into Mike Brown’s circle of trust. And a funny thing happened: he became a genuine folk hero.
The most remarkable thing about Joshua Kendall’s new biography of cartoonist Garry Trudeau is that it exists at all. The Doonesbury creator is notoriously reclusive. He has been called “the J.D. Salinger of comics.” In 1975, Time magazine told the then-27-year-old Trudeau that they wanted to do a cover feature on him. He agreed to […]

Only six people in a hundred think Keir Starmer will still be Prime Minister after the next election, but even more uncertain is whether he will still be in No 10 in a few weeks - and if not, who will?
These may be confusing and difficult times in America, but I consider myself pretty lucky. Most weekends, I get to hang out with an extraordinary group of people from around the country and see things their way. These folks are complicated, wise, and funny—and they’ve all been through a lot. There is Sammy from rural […]
