Some people think it is a very bad thing to have an opinion on anything. Blend in, don’t make too much noise, just be happy with what you know and do. I can’t do that. Gareth Cliff

Gareth Cliff likes to shoot from the hip. Whether on air or judging a trembling Idols contestant, he is always quick with a point of view. In Gareth Cliff on Everything, Gareth throws caution to the wind and writes about all those subjects that make him glad, sad or simply mad.

•  Cows? The perfect steak-making machines

•  Tarts? Good to have around, even if there is no conversation to be had

•  Our President? A bargain-bin, most-things-to-most-people, least offensive compromise

•  Nigella Lawson? She’s gotta go before there’s an orgasm on set

•  Ancestor worship? Outdated and primitive

•  Death? Hey, we’ve all got to go sometime?

•  Children? No thanks, only when I have my own

•  The British Empire? Sorry, it’s fallen

•  The Pope? You better read about it.
