If Reform get into power the BBC will be finished. Having said that, don't vote for Reform.

I hope Donald Trump dies late at night. I hate drinking alcohol during the day.

I thought you were supposed to build Thunderdome *after* the apocalypse.

Re-watching the Dollars trilogy. Why do people say Clint is playing The Man With No Name when he's clearly playing three different characters? Each of them with a fucking name.

I see Pink Floyd have another compilation album out. It's got Money on it. OF COURSE IT FUCKING HAS.

I'm currently watching live footage of the permanent protest outside the White House... No, wait, I'm making that up. There are no protests outside the White House. Americans are totally fine with this shit.

Make a Doctor Who title less scary.

Starmer accuses Elon Musk of trying to whip up division in the UK over the Henry Nowak murder. You can read Labour's full press release on X.

Donald.

My favourite part of the whole Lego theft thing is right near the beginning of the first video where Ben tells the CEO of Bricks and Minifigs that "we can do this the easy way or the hard way." Pure cinema.

If you enjoyed our video podcast about Beasts (www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjX_...) then don't forget there's also a newsletter which goes into exhaustive detail about the ordering of the episodes with some ratings analysis thrown in for fun. www.patreon.com/posts/157540...

The BBC have invented Goodwin's Law: any political discussion programme must include a Nazi.

I haven't won an election, either. Why am I being non-platformed by the BBC?

Me: Let's watch Tiptoe. Sue: No, thanks. It'll be too depressing. Me: Don't be silly. I'm sure it'll be fine. The first episode begins. Me: Oh, fuck....

Another quick plug for this if you missed it yesterday. If you could let us know what your favourite episode of Beasts is in the YouTube comments, that would be a massive help to us: youtu.be/qjX_f7pmic0?...

I'm never going to talk about Dr Who on here ever again. It's too fucking stressful

A new episode of World of Telly is out now. This time we take a look at Nigel Kneale's Beasts - the horror anthology series from 1976. The audio version of this episode is available wherever you get your podcasts and the video version is available here: youtu.be/qjX_f7pmic0

I'm not kidding when I say this is one of the best documentaries I have ever seen. Just insane: youtu.be/wscQpkcwgNU?...

Apparently, Nigel Farage is banned from being the next Dr Who.

Oh, no. Einstürzende Neubauten has pulled out of the Freedom 250 concert.

An infinite number of monkeys could never in a million years come up with something as scarhing and funny as "half of Milli Vanilli".

Fantastic as always.

I treated myself to this 4K boxset and it's incredible - probably the best boxset I've ever bought. Highly recommended.

For the love of God, stop posting "Release the Epstein Files". We can't. We would if we could. Try telling the people who can - they all hang out over on X.

I think the best thing about 1996 is that the only politics I took an interest in were all in Babylon 5.

The TV Movie is 30 today. Remember when Eric Roberts was the campest Master? Halcyon days

I do revisit the BSG soundtracks, though. Best music in a TV show ever, bar none. No-one has even come close.

I've been playing that new Battlestar Galactica game - it basically nails the episode called 33 - and it's made me want to go back and revisit the series. I even got the blu rays out of the attic. Then I remembered the ending and I can't be arsed. It's like Game of Thrones - impossible to revisit.

Tony Blair just wants Labour to go back to what it does best - bombing innocent civilians under false pretences.

I can't believe that four TV episodes smashed together and released into cinemas a month before it'll turn up on streaming isn't doing very well at the box office. Another mystery for the ages.

You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I hear Trump is in hospital again. I'm keeping my fingers crossed but he'll probably come out again

I can't believe that casting Billie Piper without thinking through the consequences would result in this cluster fuck. It's a mystery for the ages.

They are filming the Dr Who Christmas Special in September.

I guess I'll have to wait for the 50th anniversary edition in 8K.

Talking of the 4K TV Movie - would it have killed them to include a version where the Daleks don't sound like Pinky and Perky?

Seriously, though, 1996 was a fucking good year.

I'm watching the TV Movie - on my own - because it's 32 degrees outside, and it's amazing how it predicts the Murray Gold orchestral score 20 years early. Also, it looks fantastic.

I asked Sue if she wanted to watch the TV Movie in 4K with me tonight. She told me to fuck off. My. how times have changed: wifeinspace.com/wife-in-spac...

It's beautiful up north.

Remember, if you want to hurt CBS, stop watching Star Trek. Oh, wait, you're miles ahead of me.

That Colbert ending killed me. The most depressing TV cancellation of all-time. I hope CBS ends up as a smouldering ruin. Bunch of fucking cunts.

Just a reminder that both seasons of A Very Peculiar Practice are now available on iPlayer. Once you've seen the series, please consider taking a look at our recent podcast about it: youtu.be/FFxzLa67PC0?...

RIP Michael Keating. I still constantly find myself quoting Vila from Blake's 7, especially when I'm at the dentist: "I have a very low pain threshold. Hardly a threshold at all, actually".

The Boys ended perfectly. So fucking cathartic.

I just told Facebook that I'm not interested in ads for virtual AI girlfriends. FB said I'd see "fewer ads like that". Not "no ads like that" but *fewer". And then it adds the caveat "for a while". What? A day? A week? AN HOUR? The upshot is that I'm now going out with a robot called Chloe.

America reacts to the news that Trump and sons can never be audited by the IRS.
