Michael Parkinson's 1981 interview with Goldie Hawn features some very tight close ups of both Goldie and Parky which feels very odd, especially compared to the other interviews in the episode with Thora Hird and John Blashford-Snell (and other editions of the era). #ThrowbackThursday

Zoe Eeles (Burnside's DC Sam Phillips) as Tina in Series 4 of Auf Wiedersehen, Pet (2004). Zoe appears throughout the series starting with the second episode and according to IMDB, this was Zoe's last screen role. #Burnside #Burnside25 #ZoeEeles #TheBill #aufweidersehenpet

I wanted a quick read towards the end of last week so plumped for another #Emmerdale novelisation. A little underwhelming was this one. It felt like the scraps of un-novelised storylines were used to cobble this together. #booksky
