Nipple clamps and a strap-on called Godzilla

WTF: Weekly Trivia File

• 'When you are doing stand-up, it is the most glorious hour, when you are an X Men version of yourself, with lasers coming out of your eyes.' Russell Howard

Pub Landlord cutoutWant your own life-size cut our of Al Murray? Well that previously unattainable dream can now come true… if you have £32.97 to spare. He's not even as the Pub Landlord, bringing extra authenticity for those photos that suggest you might even be mates with him. And if Murray's not your cup of tea, Celebrity Cutouts also offer the likes of Michael McIntyre, Bill Bailey, several Keith Lemons… or Russ Abbott.

• Comedian Maxine Jones has broken an athletics record. She shaved almost three seconds off the Irish women's 800m time for the over-60s, running it in 2mins 53.83sec at the Graded Track and Field event in Irishtown Stadium, Dublin, this week. The previous record of 2:56.76, was set in 1999. It was Jones's first track outing having only started running at age 59 – and she's 60 now.

• Los Angles comedian Elijah Daniel has had a picture of Donald Trump sucking a dick tattooed on to his leg. He said he'd do it if one of his tweets got more than 5,000 retweets – and it did. Plus, as this follow-up says, 16,000 people watched him do it live on Periscope last weekend:

It's not the first time the comedian has tried to wind up the Republican presidential hopeful, having previously written the spoof erotic story Trump Temptation: The Billionaire & The Bellboy and published it on Amazon.

Ronnie Corbett's grandson has followed the comedy legend on to the stage. Dylan Corbett-Bader, 18, appeared in the Brighton Fringe play A Glass of Nothing last week, and Ronnie's widow, Anne Hart, came out to watch. 'It's lovely to know that the latest generation of the family has picked up the baton,' she said. Dylan is the son of Ronnie's daughter Sophie, an actress who also runs a boutique in Brighton called – what else? – Four Candles.

• Thanks – though that's probably not the right word – to Metro this week for dragging up an embarrassing incident from Graham Norton's past - his small role in the 2006 American Pie parody, Another Gay Movie. He played a Russian maths teacher called Mr Puckov, and appeared near-naked apart from leather straps, clamps around his frighteningly large nipples and a giant strap-on called Godzilla, which they tastefully pixellated in this clip:
