Hold my sphincter tight

Written by: richard gilzene

Stop the presses! Tony Mortimer, former East 17 colonel and Reggie Kray pallbearer, is back! And he’s decided to blast his new solo career into Britain’s consciousness by ‘improving’ a selection of hits from ’90s songwriting nemesis, Gary Barlow. From the official MySpace blog, which, commendably, he does still update, Tony alerted fans:

“We are running through 15 tracks and playing around three covers,”

“A few have asked for a Take That cover – well there’s definitely room for improvement on those songs, that’s for sure.”

Literally can’t wait. It’s Mortimer’s first appearance since the ill-fated 2006 reunion, which he didn’t want to do in the first place in anticipation of the rows that duly followed. This tip-off at the time might give some insight as to why it all went wrong:

East 17 have been playing University Summer
balls. At a recent concert Brian Harvey was
a complete mess all night and, when being ferried
away from the stage, farted all the way down
in the lift and apologised after every one.
