Giles Coren, you have done it again. Not content with flaming off a highly amusing email to fellow reviewer Feargus O'Sullivan of the London Paper, a few weeks back after O'Sullivan had accused him of getting preferential treatment at a local eatery - relations later thawed between the two - Coren has struck again. Monkey is in receipt of a 1009-word missive Coren fired off after he had initiated DefCon Five over a Times sub changing the last line of a restaurant review. "There is no length issue. This is someone thinking "I'll just remove this indefinite article because Coren is an illiterate cunt and i know best". Well, you fucking don't. This was shit, shit sub-editing." Coren says the email is "ancient" and is puzzled as to why it was surfaced now. "Looking at it - and you have to admit, it's a corker - it occurs to me it can only have been leaked by one of four Times staff. God, they must hate me." But we don't Giles, you have given us so much. Continue like this, Giles, and Monkey will have to put you on a retainer.
