The #Acechester marathon finishes with two Christmas stories. 'Reflect' is both heartwarming and heartbreaking. A perfect Christmas special by @josephlidster.bsky.social . Torchwood and Colchester lore galore. So glad this friendship ended well. #Torchwood @bigfinish.bsky.social

Didn’t fully mind the gap and one leg fell between the train and the platform and luggage went flying but managed not to lose a flip-flop so taking that as a win.

So is new girl Jasmine part of Jackie Ford's family out for revenge against Cindy? Jasmine Fisher/Jackie Ford, mysterious family... #Eastenders

Behold...

Is this today...?

When you love your Uncle Joe more than cheese

Just finished @nevfountain.bsky.social's "Lies and Dolls". Absolute genius. Very very funny with more than one fiendishly clever reveal at the end. Next Kit & Binface mystery when please? www.amazon.co.uk/Kit-Pelham-m...

Facebook has reminded me that on this day five years ago we introduced the round “does it sink or does it float” into the family zoom quiz. We had to guess if an object would sink or float before my nephew placed it into a sink of water.

"A GIN AND ORANGE! A LEMON SQUASH! AND A SCOTCH AND WATER, PLEASE!" Happy birthday, Fawlty Towers!

Just seen episode 8 of Twin Peaks: The Return on the big screen at @princecharlescinema.com #twinpeaks

Who’s that little boy in the red t shirt?

Just listened to the latest Torchwood and it's a stunning piece of drama. Beautiful script, performances, direction, everything.

That’s it then, time to take the emergency alert tree down

Got a new cookbook and can’t decide whether to make the mushrooms and grapes in yoghurt first or just head straight to soused fish and cucumber salad?

We've got ants coming into the flat so being extra careful about making sure no food or drink is spilled while we try to deal with them. So I've just had a Flake.

On the Hamster podcast JG spoke about Target Book Day with amusing understatement, like they forgot to limit it to just the one. On the feed I'm scrolling today, it looks like a super shindig really 💕

Thanks so much @gossjam.bsky.social for organising such a lovely day celebrating the worlds of Target Books. And hooray for the official announcement that I’m novelising Doctor Who and the Aliens of London! Too many lovely people to tag here but if you were there you were lovely 😍

Joseph Lidster? *The* @josephlidster.bsky.social is novelising Aliens of London/World War Three, the first ever #DoctorWho story that I watched?

Oh hello @josephlidster.bsky.social 🎯

I think the moment I stopped caring in the new Superman film was when Superman is trying to stop his CGI dog and a CGI baby belonging to a weird prison guard who is half CGI from being sucked into a CGI black hole because he’s drowning in a CGI anti-proton river.

Happy birthday, @josephlidster.bsky.social! Incredible human, and one of the most talented writers you could find. To celebrate, I'm reccomending you check out the "Lidster Greatest Hits!" from @bigfinish.bsky.social Particularly 'The Reaping' - one of the best things I've ever listened to!

Happy Birthday to @josephlidster.bsky.social Incredible storyteller, wonderful human, hope you have a lovely day! Highly recommend checking out his TORCHWOOD'S titles to commemorate today's National Lidster Holiday.

The Salt Path (post-credits scene): *Moth & Raynor Winn enter their home to find Hannah Ingram-Moore & Johann Hari waiting for them* Hari: "I'm putting together a team."

Overheard a guy in the pub loo bemoaning how the gays are everywhere these days. “Even in Brighton.”

It's too hot to go to the tap and turn it on and fill a glass with water to drink. It's just too hot.

Saw Godfather 3 for the first time yesterday. Truly awful on pretty much every level. My favourite thing was whenever George Hamilton popped up because George Hamilton.

That's a crammed way of saying #DoctorWho #TargetBookClub has AMAZING line-up of lovely people who are giving us their words, their insight, their impressions of Krotons. See you July 19th at #DoctorWho #TargetBookClub at The Abbey Centre in Westminster TICKETS: bit.ly/escape2danger
