From the big chin of TV to the long arm of the law

There's lots of recorded instances of the police tempting hapless crooks with the promise of free tickets to shows, rounding them up when they arrive, clutching popcorn and opera glasses. It happens less often these days, perhaps because the wiseguys have got wise.

However, if you are trying to avoid sitting down with a policeman to explain your recent past, we'd suggest you might still want to avoid printing the details of your movements in TV Guide.

Snoop Dogg, leaving a taping of The Late Show with Jay Leno, discovered this the hard way, as cops pulled him over as he left the studio and, allegedly, discovered marijuana, cocaine and a firearm in his car. Either Dogg hasn't really learned the lessons of his many run-ins with police, or else the Leno programme is giving their guests a hell of a gift bag.
