Paul Weller at the Barbican It's a pity that Covid restrictions meant this show could only go ahead without an audience. Career-spanning, and fantastic interpretations.

Just met a Reform UK voting couple who had no idea that it opposed: Recent rise in the minimum wage End of the two-child benefit cap Expansion of free school meals, free breakfast clubs Help with school uniforms Horrified that they would lose big from Reform How many others voted without knowing?

Scotland, do not let Reform in tomorrow. Our communities and the future of our country will change for the worst if we do. They are multi-millionaires that are in it for their own greed and the short term, but the damage will be done. Get out there in numbers and vote to KEEP THE FASCISTS OUT.

The first '60s Addams Family TV series was filmed in black and white, so they didn't really care about the actual color scheme of the set, and more about how it would look on TV, ending up with a colorful Addams Manor that is honestly home decor goals.

Nedra Talley Ross helped make the Ronettes the platonic ideal of a girl group
Even though she was unwell, the last surviving Ronette was full of poignant memories and saucy asides when I met her last year. And she had a rich life after pop success
