The pop music trend I would end is artists unnecessarily capitalising their mononyms. Oh wow yeah caps, you’re so cool, no one else has done that.

Well that takes the number of Booker Prize winning novels I’ve never read to all of them

I appreciate them making the Radio Theatre look like Fiction Studios for Uncloaked #CelebrityTraitors

There was a touch of Craig Face on Nick as he started to worry #CelebrityTraitors

Bit confused by this demographic question from the QE2 National Memorial consultation survey…

Well yes, it’s one of the greatest songs ever recorded Britpopple #1211 🔊🟩⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️ #Britpopple #Heardle @Britpopple www.britpopple.uk

If Mark had voted for David, he’d be safe. If David had voted for Mark, he’d be safe. Got to protect yourself! #CelebrityTraitors

Not saying I’m old but my Instagram ads are for Rennies

Of course it can be removed. If we refuse to call Andrew Windsor “Prince” then it is redundant. No one is obliged to use it.

Wondering how many ITV viewers accidentally tune into Trigger Point instead of Tipping Point and vice versa.

As yes British football in the 1980s. Well known for its good-natured fun. He's a ridiculous person.

It’s not really giving up your titles if you’re still “Prince” Andrew, is it?

The BBC are accidentally running the subtitles to Mrs Marple over the Mercury Prize, and it’s rather wonderful. A few of lines could plausibly have been written by Jarvis.

“Inspector Horse” has been my imagined detective show for years. Of course his real first name is “End Of A” #CelebrityTraitors #Uncloaked

Cat is so lining up to shove Jonathan under the bus and I am very here for it #CelebrityTraitors

Missed opportunity not to have Charlotte with a "Learn Welsh" book. #TheTraitors

Feel like this should be a bigger story. All the media outlets love reporting on Reform don't they? www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Moonpig emails to see if I’d like to be removed from “Grandparents Day emails”. And I do, although less because I have no living grandparents and more because it’s entirely confected by gift companies to sell cards.

Joint second! But the real quiz was the friends we made along the way. @gabrielhawkpot.bsky.social @willhowells.org.uk @harryjheath.bsky.social

So the right in America, having celebrated their slain idol as the ultimate free speech warrior, defender of the First Amendment, are now going after people whose words about him they don’t like. Totally consistent.

I guess the American right will be calling for a clampdown on white cis men then.

It’s not just the guns. State-sanctioned execution also sets a precedent that life is not sacrosanct (for some reason especially courtesy of so-called pro-lifers).

They are addicted to these headlines, as if the only person the UK economy affects is the Chancellor.

Weird having to keep reminding myself that Mandy Patinkin is a Broadway legend when for my childhood he was just Inigo Montoya and the title character from Mannequin.

Urgh. I made the error of believing “Fill in this form and we’ll email you a quote.” Instead of a quote they’ve emailed an attempt to set up a call. Which from previous experience they will chase about 8 times while I ignore every single one.

An incredible “I don’t want to overplay this moment” acting choice in the Strange New Worlds finale that had me guffawing.

A niche request. Can anyone recommend software for mapping an area, especially in terms of buildings? Ideally to track development over time too. Thinking from a local history perspective.

Kevin Whateley’s Modern Major General in this Midsomer Murders is so modern he has a World War 2 medal on his costume.

Sorry, 857 is the official total. What a shocking waste of everyone’s time enforcing a stupid law.

Where are all the “streets not tweets” free speech absolutists today suggesting police didn’t need to arrest 150 people for holding signs?

I haven’t carried a wallet for 20 years.

Give Scott a thing for Kirk you cowards #StrangeNewWorlds

“Suddenly there was a heavy object in my hand and she walked into it. Three or four times.” This Midsomer Murders is given excellent Chicago homage.

Me: … My brain: Well, sir, there’s nothing on earth like a genuine, bona fide, electrified Jet2 holiday!

Amusing www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

you ever just watch Clue

My Biddy Baxter memory: enlisting her Boudica-like power to argue our way into a crematorium where a mutual friend was going to be sent off with no-one in attendance. I took the service and pressed the button. Afterwards the entire congregation went back to her place in one taxi. RIP.

Can't fault the clarity of Labour's message on protest. There are BAD protesters who must be punished (Irish musicians, anti-genocide vicars) and there are GOOD protesters whose views deserve respect (masked thugs with petrol bombs trying to start a pogrom)

This is not caused primarily by "screen time". It's been caused by the mass eradication of third places for young people in basically every city over the past three decades - and a society that's hostile to the concept of teens socialising in public spaces. www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

All this big talk about arresting protesters for supporting Palestine Action and I just don’t get what the point is. It doesn’t make anybody safer. It doesn’t stop any actual terrorism. It’s just macho policing putting resources into competent the wrong place.

Quite amused by Jonathan Frakes directing a Kirk spoof character to do the Riker chair thing.

Paramount+ disabling fast forward/rewind and therefore making their service less user-friendly than just streaming live TV. So helpful.

Instead of penalty shootouts they should do Zener’s Extra Time: 30 minutes, then 15 minutes, then 7.5 minutes, then 3 minutes 45 seconds, then 112.5 seconds, then 56.25 seconds… #WEURO2025

RIP Tom Lehrer. What a bloody legend.

Can the police arrest the police for wasting police time?

“This bit in La La Land with them dancing in space seems unlikely.” “No more unlikely than bits of Xanadu.” “Xanadu has muses in. It’s a fantasy.” “This is a fantasy. One of the characters actually likes jazz.”
