Just before he dropped her into the Rancor pit for providing unsatisfactory dancing.

That ski relay looks like the most exhausting sport in the world. Knackered just watching it. #WinterOlympics #MilanoCortina2026

Went to see the Back To The Future musical for my Dad’s birthday today. Was ready to be all sniffy about it but it was actually great.

After my son enjoyed the new #MuppetShow so much we’ve gone back to the original series, and watched The Muppet Movie last weekend. So good. Celebrity cameos? Fourth wall breaks? Kermit’s the original Deadpool.

Just going to leave this here

Worth listening as always, but especially today for @jonathanliew.bsky.social correctly calling Jim Ratcliffe a “fucking prick”.

Fair play to Big Sir Jim, I haven’t see a proper Non-Apology Apology in the wild for a while.

jim ratcliffe: [seeing man utd experiencing hope and optimism for the first time in 13 years] well.. better tell everyone i'm racist

@johnrain.co.uk Out of interest do you or someone at Acast choose these subject headings, or is this an AI thing?

To be a good Prime Minister you need to be a strong leader who can motivate and unite people, and also be able to do loads of boring work behind the scenes in meetings. I reckon Brown was the last PM to be capable of both.

These luge commentators sound like Steve Wright and Guy Garvey. It’s a bit distracting. #WinterOlympics #MilanoCortina2026

“Is it a nose butter?” Absurd. #WinterOlympics #MilanoCortina2026

Highlight of the #WinterOlympics so far is the little drone cameras that follow the skiers and snowboarders down the slope.

Me? Rushed out the door to get the early train home. The Weather? Wet My Umbrella? Still in the office. D’oh.

I know Kermode is known for his rants, but the genuine anger in his review of Melania is quite something.

Been listening to Joanna on repeat since @laurenlaverne.bsky.social mentioned them on her show the other day. Cult late 80s/early 90s baggy band? Never released an album until someone found the masters in a loft last year? Sign me up.

"We've all been sacked for the potential that we could upset a thin-skinned fat paedo"

New #MuppetShow was fun. My son was excited (and a bit confused) to see the characters from A Christmas Carol in something else.

Just watched the last episode. Blimey.

This is very, very good.

Fourth goal was a bicycle kick, too.

Daughter told us that “In English Miss said we should read 1984.” (I like to think that “Miss” is a rogue Robin Williams style teacher going off syllabus). Very smug when I was able to turn to the bookshelf and say “There it is”. Can’t wait for her to read it now!

I wonder if John Bishop is joining the promotional tour for #IsThisThingOn in other countries, or just here. He’s not in the film, and I don’t know if people outside the UK know who he is. Just curious.

This left me slack jawed for about 30 minutes Holy fuck…

Unexpected career move.

Well, I enjoyed the Springsteen film.

OUCH

Note to the people making the new Bond film: just watch the new series of #TheNightManager, then do that.

Being back teams doing FA Cup songs.

I can confirm I won’t.

Can’t wait for the mental contortions Farage will need to go through once Trump finds out about all the oil off the Falklands.

The world learned today that you absolutely have to bully this dumb old asshole as a collective. Better late than never for them, but we better get used to being aggressively humiliated for the next few years.

Dignitas?

He thinks Norway and Denmark are the same place, doesn’t he?

Well, that was disappointing.

THAT’S HOW WE GOT INTO THIS MESS IN THE FIRST PLACE.

The good folk of Castleford need to move shaprpish if they want this. It won’t last long now it’s in the window of the newsagents on the way to the bus station.

“We have people everywhere.” Oh, grow up. You’re not SPECTRE.

I see Channel 4 have shelled out for a studio, pundits and commentators now that we’ve reached the semi finals. Boo. Sellouts. #AFCON

Say one thing for this government, they’re unmatched at announcing unpopular policies, taking lots of flak for them and then backing down anyway. Managing to be both tone deaf and weak is almost impressive. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I’ve been rewatching The Office (UK), and I think it’s made me nostalgic for Proper Offices. Hefty furniture, photocopiers, landline phones, no beanbags… those were the days.

The last panel set me off. Beautiful work as ever.

“She cannae take much more of this!”

AAAAAHHHHHH.

Every time they cut to the Valencia manager there’s someone sat behind him eating a really nice looking sandwich. It’s making me hungry. #ValenciaElcheCF

Talked my kids through taping songs off the radio the other day, they looked at me like I’d just told them I was a Victorian chimney sweep.

What was your #ChildhoodCinema? The Herne Bay Odeon/Cannon. I mean, just look at it. Absolute flea pit, but a thing of beauty. Knocked down and turned into flats for the elderly.
