Quotes by Tim Worthington (?)

“Cornershop were the subject of the most ridiculous pop facts yet, ranging from the revelation that “guitarist Roy Hudd is the joker of the band” to Stewart Lee’s assertion that the band’s Tjinder Singh was the worst Student Union Entertainments Manager he had encountered in four years of doing student gigs.”
― Tim Worthington, Fun At One: The Story of Comedy at BBC Radio 1
