Just discovered I've been murdered by the dog. #Traitors

Will Nigella dive into the Great British Bakeoff box as enthusiastically as Prue Leith?

This week: Bafta film screenings, #Oscar nomination chatting, then #Traitors preview/reviews

So tonight at Pitlochry Festival Theatre, we learnt why Graham Norton would not do Celebrity Traitors. The tasks 'I would do the round table, but I am not carrying shit up a hill'

Cosy late afternoon at Pitlochry Festival Theatre. Lovely cheery audience 15 minutes away from Ian McKellen's Equinox

Del Boy's empire went bust, and he got a two-year suspended sentence for tax evasion. I'll stick with my childhood hero

Enjoyed the ingenious reworking of Cinderella at the @lyceumedinburgh into a celebration of parrots and practical footwear, rather than pumpkins and posh frocks.

2 non-surprises, 2 nazi-driven plots, lots of directors called Robert, no Bells of St Mary's. And Ordinary People - because it is set in Chicago, the Pope's hometown: he could have picked Ferris Bueller's Day Off. (More of this sort of thing on @timesradio at 1220)

RIP Lee Tamahori, who once thrilled me by explaining the nightmare of making The Edge with Bart, a million-dollar bear, & a card-carrying member of the Screen Actors Guild Lee's film starred Anthony Hopkins and Alec Baldwin as two men trapped in the wilderness and stalked by a bear. THREAD! 1/3

Previewing #CelebrityTraitors, discussing the leak, plus Celeb Race Across the World for @bbcnews in an hour

Allan Carr trying to play it innocent on #Traitors Haven't seen anyone sweat this much since Nixon

This may be the funniest series of #Traitors to date Which is doubly welcome after the intensity and WEEPING that went on earlier this year

Booked to review the first episode of #celebritytraitors on @bbcnews-uk-rss.bsky.social tonight. #BaldingasTraitorplease

Chatting with Jane Horrocks this afternoon on BBC Radio Scotland to resolve the pressing issue of pumpkins vs neeps

Big shoutout to the queen who sent me this Paul & Paulette promotional. It's on point, the lemon and rosemary smells fab, film critics can use it to scrub down their brains after seeing Thursday Murder Club, and it won't end up as landfill

Another busy day: reviewing the week's films at 1245, and before that joining BBC Radio Scotland to discuss the decline in children's TV. Then it's time to dig into some viewing for my weekly TV review.

Chatting with another film critic, we got to talking about The Moving Finger & how peculiar it is that a small community can't identify the author of spiteful messages. LOL dude: when it's a small group, they KNOW.

The weather is horrible this weekend, so if you are in Edinburgh on Sunday, come see #HARVEST at the Filmhouse. A mystical period folk horror shot in Scotland, it stars Caleb Landry Jones and a local cast. We have director, producer, and cast afterwards: www.filmhouse.org.uk/movie/harves...

I've really missed him and our lovely radio gang, so am thrilled to be back with @colinmurray1.bsky.social from this Sunday morning on @bbc5live.bsky.social for chat, fun and special guests. Wonder Years? No regrets

I regret very much that Hugh Grant won't be giving a #Bafta2025 Best Actor speech, because it would have been FUN

Is that a Westwood plaid suit David Tennant has changed into now? #bafta2025

#Bafta2025 Outstanding British Film: lots of worthy films in this category. And Gladiator II

Oh Simon Pegg, we have missed ye #BAFTA2025 Enjoyed the smooth transition to reading glasses there

When Zoe Saldana rocks up, everyone asks, yet again, "why is she nommed for supporting actress when it's clearly a lead role in Emilia Perez" #BAFTA2025

Joining @alexisconran in a few minutes to ask if James Bond Will Return

BBC Reporting Scotland is bringing strong tree game to #StormEowyn

Or 'FuglyTelly'

Reviewing the Oscar nominations for BBC News ramorra

Sad to hear about David Lynch. Every film was an event, and he was kind to a very young me. Hearing me getting turned down by his PR for an interview, he called out "come for coffee instead" and chatted to me for half an hour about Twin Peaks and Elephant Man.

Brave new contender for possibly the stupidest question ever asked in the history of podcasts.

Unfortunate that Scotland Tonight covered today's Baftas nominations, yet couldn't correctly pronounce "Saoirse Ronan", star of lone Scot BAFTA hope The Outrun. No mention of its place in the best British film category - or that Laura Carreira's On Falling was on the longlist.

Genning up to analyse the #Bafta nominations this afternoon

I'm talking to Caroline Wyatt about film dubbing on Radio 4's PM at 1730 today and it's a joy. May contain Wallace and Gromit, Ukrainian Paddington and the German Bruce Willis

Nettflix has released Wallace and Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl to the USA, and if they can cope with the localisms of Great British Bakeoff, they can probably navigate 'Yorkshire Border - No Parkin' And gives me a chance to revisit the fact that Feathers' pet seal is called Ron
