TruffleShuffle Talks With The Raccoons Creater Kevin Gillis + New Tees + COMPETITION
This is the TruffleShuffle blog, quiet, peaceful, serene... that is until our new The Raccoons TShirts and COMPETITION wakes up! Yaaaahoooooo!
Luckily, we have a good friend to help us out in the form of The Raccoons creator Kevin Gillis!
Like busy little Raccoons ourselves, we've been hard at work with Kevin to create some all new and exclusive Raccoons T-Shirts which are now on the site! We have one new design which has been lovingly screen printed onto four styles and colours including grey & white tees, blue vest and a grey baseball raglan TShirt!
To celebrate our latest arrivals in style and give you guys a little glimpse into the world behind The Raccoons, we stole Kevin away and threw some questions at him (don't worry we were gentle). Take a look below to see what we found out from the man himself....
Baywatch is Back! Our Top Reasons Baywatch Was A Complete Classic (and some things you might not know…)
Swimsuits at the ready! The new Baywatch movie hits our screens at the end of the month and we actually.can't.wait. Starring Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson and Zac Efron, it's sure to be hilarious, tongue-in-cheek and slightly ridiculous (obvs).
In the meantime, we thought we'd take a look at what made the oh-so-cheesy 80's mega-hit show so darn great - from the running scenes to the one-liners, along with a few fab facts even the biggest fan might not knowâ¦
ALL the Slow Mo Running
Ah, that famous running along the beach, as slow as their legs could carry them! This iconic calling card of the show has inspired a thousand parodies, sketches the world over - from Friends to The Muppets - and even a 'slow-motion' marathon, happening to celebrate the new film (in case you're wondering how it works - people have to reach the finish line of the .2k race in the 'slowest and sexiest' fashion, to win!
But why the slow motion running on Baywatch in the first place, we hear you ask? Whatever the unintended consequences, it was apparently inspired by one of the producers shooting sprinters in a similar way at the 1988 Olympic Games. David Hasselhoff also claimed recently that is helped to paid out the 50-minute running slot on their super-low budget.
Whatever the reasons, we love it and are totally working on our own runs this summer - iPhones at the readyâ¦
Our Amazing Unicorn Goodies Will Turn Mythical Into MythiCOOL!
Now unless you've been climbing a cold mountain leaving you completely cut off from the world, or perhaps you got your cave's feng shui juuuust right and you've been camped out there for a while, you miiiight have noticed that Unicorns are kind of a big deal and are certainly stylishly galloping their way all over our site in true majestic style!
From fashion and decor, to food and drinks (take a peep at the latest Starbucks creation! It's seen to be believed), Unicorn love has injected a whole wave of colours and fun over the world and we sure can't get enough!
Never one's to miss out on the fun, we've been working hard to create our very own collection of Unicorn goodies that have already been flying off the Truffle Towers selves. To help get your guys in on the action, hereâs our pick of the best unicorn clothing and gifts in our collection.... and thereâs no need to travel to a far off magical kingdom to get them too!
Looking to glam up your hot brew drinking activities? Our suuuuper snazzy Pusheen travel mug is here to do just that! We got cats, unicorns, glitter and rainbows all covered with this one. PURRFECT!!!
Pay homage with Homage Tees!
Emblazoned with the faces of British icons including Louis Theroux, Sir David Attenborough and Joanna Lumley, London label Homage Tees pay tribute to the subculture greats that deserve some serious props. We're huge fans of the late-90s styling and right-side-of-ironic vibes - it's no wonder these tees have been picked up by bloggers and celebs everywhere wanting to show love for their irreverent idols. Designed by an anonymous founder, Homage Tees are by the people, for the people.

If, like us - you skipped all the boring stuff like real news and weather updates and went straight on a hunt to locate your Star Signs for the week ahead, then this is the t-shirt for you. Are you going to fall in love? Are you going to become stinking rich? We don't know - but we do know how cool you're going to look when you bag yourself a Mystic Meg t-shirt. 'Today, you will find the most perfect retro t-shirt you've ever set eyes on, and you will be compelled to buy it.'
We are ther-oux trying to find a cooler t-shirt than this. Whether you love Louis shadowing our fave celebs, taking part in weird weekends, or producing amazing documentaries - this is the tee for you! Totally 90s tastic with a nod to the geeky and awesome Louis Theroux.
The Doctor's Back! Here's What We're Expecting From Season 10
Doctor Who fans rejoice! Following an achingly long 12 month break, Series 10 is due to kick off this weekend and expectations couldn't be higher! I'll warn you now, there may be a couple of light spoilers ahead so tread carefully!
The wonderful Peter Capaldi will be returning as the Doctor (in what has been confirmed as his final series) and he will be joined by a brand new companion in the form of Bill Potts played by Pearl Mackie. Also, very excitingly, Matt Lucas (who I'll always remember from Shooting Stars and Little Britain!) will be returning as Nardole, a character who was last seen in the 2015 Christmas Special.
The first episode is called The Pilot and will show The Doctor meeting Bill while working as a lecturer in a University, he then of course whisks her away to his weird and wonderful world. Show writer Steven Moffat has promised that this episode is a great starting point for anyone who's not seen the show yet, so there's no excuse not to get involved!
It also wouldn't be Doctor Who without a couple of scary moments to get us hiding behind the sofa courtesy of the huge range of villains that the series is well known for. It seems that new sidekick Bill is going to get chucked in at the deep end as the first episode is said to feature the greatest of all enemies, The Daleks!
