What we'd be glad to see the back of in 2010...

Katie Price aka Jordan

Jordan sums up a lot of things that is wrong with British culture.

The 'glamour model' has appeared on the front page of almost every newspaper and magazine in the last 12 months.

She earned millions through her very public relationship with Peter Andre, yet her talents probably couldn't even earn her a Blue Peter badge.

If selling exclusive rights to her and Peter's televised wedding for over 2 million pounds wasn't bad enough - she also has the cheek to complain about a lack of a private life.

Jordan finished in second place in the Daily Mail's Chav rich list.

Lets hope in the new year she takes the kids to a quiet country house in Devon and decides to take up a vow of celebacy.

The North Face jacket

Originally worn by elderly ramblers and hill walkers in the Lake District, the North Face brand filtered its way through to hardmen such as football hooligans and Ross Kemp.

But now in December, the North Face logo has become a badge of honour for 12-year-old ASBO chavs hanging around outside your Macdonalds.

This durable wind-proof jacket or coat has earned its hardened reputation for being reliable in all forms of weather.

Last January it was worn by pensioners braving the freezing weather hill-walking in the hope of finding a new hobby other than bingo and Coronation St.

By early spring the jacket emerged as a fashion accessary on the football terraces for the token football hooligan.

And by late spring Ross Kemp was seen sporting a limited edition spring North Face anorak whilst interviewing some of the world's most violent mobs and gangs.

But now in the coldest time of our winter, it has become impossible to get some fast food without having to shimmy through a pack of skinny-looking 12-year-olds sharing a cigarette; all wearing North Face.

It looks like what happened to Burberry is now happening to the North Face jacket.

It's a good job I kept my receipt.

  1. I remember at least five minutes of the 1990s where Helly Hansens seemed to have moved out of Millets and onto scallies everywhere, so North Face doesn't surprise me.

    Is this the first comment you've had?
