Hover over a famous person's name and it scrapes Wikipedia and the IMDB for a summary, tacks "A truly [inspirational|great|beloved|unique|monumental] talent has been lost to us all." I'm too damn lazy to actually do it, mind. I bet with half an hour and some serious thinking I could write the Obit-o-matic Firefox plugin.

A huge proportion of the letters we get follow his "brief summary of whatever the hell we're talking about followed by 'well done ITV!' or 'I'm hoping to see more!' Basically they're tedious cunts with nothing to say fishing for an easy tenner. Although since HYS doesn't actually pay I can only assume they're treating it as an audition to take Jeremy Kyle's slot when he finally wakes up to discover that he's been hanged from a lamp-post and set on fire during the night.
