    I appear to need to go through some pain-in-the-arse registration for the Wurzels thing, and I'm not entirely sure I qualify as a media professional (unless that's just a general term for layabout). Is it related to this story in The Sun?

    Ooh, and Braff's done well for himself. Though I was rather hoping he'd get to concentrate on film after Garden State.
