- 'Soho,
sleaze and the gossip column'
West End Extra, 30 Apr 2004
"He
was the man behind the 20th century's most recognisable gossip column
- and his private life and public beliefs made him the sort of person
who would make ample copy for any scribbler today. The life of Labour

a column still running - was celebrated on Thursday in one of his many
haunts"...

- 'Let's
blow Tom Driberg's trumpet'
by Marc Glendening - Tribune magazine, 23 Apr 2004
""I know 'e was a bad 'un but I still
loved 'im." The sad, typical lament from a loyal, grief-stricken

- 'A
dandy in the Soho underworld'
by Marc Glendening - Tribune magazine, 4 Dec 2003
"On Thursday December 4 at 6:30pm, a group
will assemble in the French House in London's Soho and raise a glass
in memory of one-time Tribune contributor Julian Maclaren-Ross.
We will then proceed an hour later to his spiritual home
(pun intended) The Wheatsheaf, to hear Paul Willets, the author of Fear
and Loathing in Fitzrovia, the bizarre life of writer, actor, Soho
dandy Julian Maclaren-Ross. Why is he worth celebrating? Why are we
so determined to keep his memory alive and spread awareness of him?"....
