Henman & Castle. Christ. It’s like listening to an abandoned stretch of the A50 #Wimbledon

Morning. Have you seen this ?? I've posted out to try to help

I don’t remember this.

My guess is it's actually special effects.

In case you missed the sub-text of Andy Burnham's big speech today, the main point was that everyone should go and see Something Rotten! at the Opera House Manchester. northwestend.com/something-ro...

Hello! There’s a new Mister Fusty EP out today on #Bandcamp and all streaming services. Take a listen! misterfusty.bandcamp.com/album/twenty...

Went to the cinema last night and lasted 15 minutes before baling. Didn't even get to the trailers. The cinema is supposed to be air conditioned, but what they mean is that they pipe in air from outside, which, as you might have noticed, is really bloody hot. It was like being in an air fryer.

I am comfortable with this.

Extraordinary credit to Sadiq Khan for pushing through this deeply controversial policy. This is what can happen when politicians are prepared to stick to their principles.

Unions are bad on climate change. They just are, because we don’t have unions for people working on renewables and environmental progress yet, but we do have very entrenched and old-fashioned unions representing people in deeply polluting sectors. Join your union but tell them to ram it on climate.

The “Cash Is King” campaign is bankrolled by money launderers.

Kirkby.

Whoa! This was Starmer Road on Sunday.

My choice is bend double or frazzle.

-Sorry, sir, could you step this way. We have reason to believe you've been stealing from us. -What? I don't even have a bag! -I know, sir, but we have you on CCTV, standing in the chiller aisle for over an hour, stealing our air conditioning

*nestles in next to the Tesco Finest Petits Pois*

Going to Tesco. I don’t even need to.

He should only be allowed to stand if, by July 9, he can mine a hundredweight of coal using just his bare, calloused hands and a chisel.

I don’t count any of these as an ice lolly. Some of them are lolly ices.

I don’t think Sir Roger Moore, inventor of the Magnum, would be happy to hear it called something as basic as an “ice lolly”.

Fucking class this

He’s just lucky he was being interviewed by Nick Ferrari and not Trevor Crack-Whore.

Has anybody ever seen Desmond Swayne and Freddie Starr in the same room at the same time?

A map of cool spaces in London, for anyone worried about temperatures at home. Even if you get out just for a few hours it will make a difference. Hope you find one near you. apps.london.gov.uk/cool-spaces/

If anybody not in the Campaign Group even *thinks* of backing the Campaign Group's candidate to widen the debate this time, I'll widen their debate with Steve Bray's boombox.

A lot of people don't realise this but in the UK we have to replace our Prime Minister every two or three years or else the rights revert back to Marvel

Hi, I've got a regular job. I'm the guy who says, "It's a lectern not a podium," every time the Prime Minister resigns.

TBF to Starmer, I think the scripts let him down and the Disney deal was just never a good fit.

I hope he gets rid of Steve Bray.

Ironically if you use AI for posters it makes you look cheap.

I don't have any patience for the "but we're poor" argument for bands using AI for posters and publicity. Try to think back to roughly 3 years ago when you somehow coped without it.

Another day, another stupid Excel chart.

We've lost a legend: James Burrows, one of the greatest sitcom directors in TV history, has passed away at the age of 85, per People magazine.

Lisa Nandy looking pleased at the count. Be good to see her finally make Cabinet when AB becomes PM

Guy who did the Reflecting Pool seems legit. And he wants that Dick Tracy DEAD!

Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol.4 – new pics released.

What about if we cut your sandwiches into aeroplane shapes, you infant?

The thing about AI is it’s… just not that good. Like, it’s *fine* at stuff, but never more so than your second-most trustworthy colleague. It’s also a bullshitter. A really plausible fake-it-till-you-make-it bullshitter. It’s like the digital equivalent of a posh 20-year-old boy.

I liked him on Magpie.

It's the UK culture secretary

Getting heaven's door slammed in his face, along with a fist, while the cameraman runs for it.

Knocking on heaven's door.

One time, our tiny town’s little (but very cool) movie theatre was having their premiere for the FLASH movie, which people thought was going to be a big hit at the time. The theater was actually very busy that first night. A friend wrote the screenplay, I was excited. 1/

Disclosure Day sequel in the works. I heard the title is going to be Datclosure Day.

@nick-pettigrew.bsky.social Could any of your Scouse followers please help me? Lost my wedding ring yesterday somewhere along the Kings Parade going towards the Albert Dock. Would be greatly appreciated.

Are the late seventies Evel Knievel-riffing transparent plastic shield-chucking Captain America TV Movies really as dull as rainy Bank Holiday recollections suggest? @garybainbridge.bsky.social joins me to investigate... timworthington.org/2023/10/02/i...

Here’s the thing about Tony. He turned up in the NEVERWHERE studio the day before he was booked to be in. He didn’t have to do that but he wanted to get an idea of how the production sounded in studio and how the team worked. A total pro and a lovely human being.

If you've somehow never seen it, here for you is just the loveliest fish out of water family sitcom that turns into a Big Gay Romcom halfway through.
