Was going to say he's missed out "Diddy" David Hamilton but maybe "Diddy" David Hamilton doesn't have a twitter account.

imagine him signing up for twitter this week and getting all excited when he looks at the trending topics and then disappointed when he clicks through

There are many other David Hamiltons out there, including the main indie DJ in Southampton in the 90s and an extremely dodgy photographer.

amazing that a 70s Radio 1 DJ is neither the dodgiest David Hamilton nor the dodgiest Diddy

"he wanted to watch the football, but his Sky aerial wasn’t transmitting properly."
tbf it was actually Rupert Murdoch who was indirectly responsible for Rod Hull's death, it was one of his employees who did a shoddy Sky installation and that's why the fucker died!
― vodkaitamin effrtvescent (calzino), Saturday, 4 May 2024 10:11 (two days ago) link
the one time I had Sky, the installation was abysmal. The dish was hanging off my wall because it had been fixed to the rendered insulation rather than to the house bricks. When a sky employee arrived he said he can't fix the problem because Sky don't supply him with long enough coaching screws to fix to the brick. He said if you just pop down to B+Q and get some 100mm coaching screws then I will come back today and fix it. I said ffs please tell me this is some kind of fucking joke, no he was completely serious.

Speaking to John Cleese on the latest episode of his Rosebud podcast, Brandreth said: “I killed a man. It was Rod Hull, the emu man.”
Imagining Brandreth saying this like Robert Shaw delivering the "Mr Hooper, that's the USS Indianapolis" line in Jaws
