Myf and Zan mark 100 episodes of Bang On! Holy hell, where did that time go? April Fools has rolled around, but the foolin’ has made way for the hard sell and we’re more than a little cynical of it all. A red carpet moment from Robert Smith of The Cure has sparked a bigger conversation around entitlement, and an article about reality TV has Myf vindicated. Plus we mark the century with a few memories, and it wouldn’t be an occasion if Beryl didn’t drop by.
