Not a happy man by all accounts and not above spreading the misery around
I do get the impression hes often depressed. I know depression horrible and can debilitate anyone but he strikes me as someone who'd use it to behave like a right moody prick.

A lot of people with debilitating depression act as if everything is fine. This when suicide for no apparent reason is such a shock. My son's friend was the life and soul of the party, he had a wide circle of friends, but not one of them knew the torment he was going through. Nor did I. I saw him the morning of the day he died, and he was his usual cheerful self, chatting about his job, the festivals he was planning to go to that summer, told me tell my son he'd see him at the weekend, remarked on what a beautiful day it was - absolutely no sign of any inner turmoil or distress. An hour later, he'd left the world, leaving a detailed note as to why dying was preferable to living.

My personal theory (and it is only mine) is that people who are miserable constantly, aren't actually clinically depressed, they are just unhappy and fed up.

Him and Benedict Cumberbatch didn't get on according to blinds
Is that really true or something dreamt up by the Cumberbatch Crazies? They don't like anyone who gets to breath the same air as their Ben. Plus his wife is holding him hostage for some unknown crime, while she is a people trafficking, drug smuggling satanist. Oh and their kids don't exist.

If BC genuinely doesn't get on with Tim from The Office, then I'm with Ben all the way, but they were probably cordially polite like the majority of workmates.

I think it was just said by BC that they didn’t socialise away from filming or keep in touch. No reason for every actor to be best mates with each other when the camera is rolling. They are acting after all!

I have a couple of weeks' worth of Popbitch stories to share, but this one from today gave me a good laugh:

There was a nice little detail in a fan-led Q&A with Dave Gahan in the Guardian this week.

At some point, the idea had been floated that Depeche Mode would make an album with legendary musician/producer Brian Eno. Until Dave discovered that Eno had worked with Coldplay, that is. Now he absolutely refuses to let it happen. Ever.

I don't know why he's getting all precious. Some of us are old enough to remember him popping about on TOTP to 'Just Can't Get Enough' and 'The Meaning of Love' :cool:

Don't know but I think one of them was that BC didn't like MF attitude towards the Sherlock fanbase or something

Yes I read the same thing. Actors don't have to get on with everyone they work with, that's true. His 29 year old girlfriend looks about 40!

I think most of us can agree that Depeche Mode are a lot cooler than Coldplay though. I loved the first Coldplay album, the rest is all a bit generic and mainstream bland bollocks. I have, however, yet to meet a Depeche Mode song that I don't like. Violator is a flipping incredible album.

I love Eno's own music, but would rather work with Depeche Mode than Coldplay if given the choice.

The Brian Eno chat reminds me of this picture from David Bowie and Iman’s wedding, with…

Bono, Ono and Eno.

Loving all these book suggestions!
Going to make a list
Apparently Dave Grohl The Storyteller is amazing.
One I forgot to add that I was left speechless at some of the stuff he got up to is Tim Burgess (lead singer of The Charlatans) autobiography Tellin Stories. A must read for any britpop / 90s indie kids.

Has anyone read Tyler James book about Amy Winehouse?
I did. And it was so sad and so revealing. I wish I hadn’t. I want to get the new one that is like her fashion book. That sounds much less traumatic.

I love Eno's own music, but would rather work with Depeche Mode than Coldplay if given the choice.
I have met both bands and Depeche were nicer and FAR more interesting than Coldplay.
