#Amadeus My recommendation @RadioTimes for Christmas week. Sky's excellent new five-part adaptation of Peter Shaffer's classic play with Will Sharpe, Paul Bettany, Gabrielle Creevy and Rory Kinnear. The whole series is available to watch from today on Now

Cinema heaven @BFI today. #SunsetBlvd definitely in my all-time Top Ten.

Just arrived in the post. More excellence from Richard Marson. Fortunately I’ve already read it. @tenacrebooks.bsky.social tenacrefilms.bigcartel.com/product/box-...

Ralph Wilton was the life and soul. He will be missed. Here he is in 2016, savouring a moment, at the DWM 500th party with his dear pal June Hudson and Richard Marson.

There, that's another last extra bit added to the Troughton diary text. All done and delivered. Why do I still keep digging up even more info that can go in? Now back to Pertwee. Such endless fun.

The Quatermass experience... I had a great time talking to @tobyhadoke.bsky.social about his amazing new book... @radiotimes.bsky.social www.radiotimes.com/tv/sci-fi/qu... @tenacrefilms.bsky.social

Thanks to Mark for the chat and to the mighty Radio Times for two pages of book coverage :) Amazing!

I love that Peter Wyngarde is competing in this year’s #Eurovision.

The Doctors features brilliant photography by Ian Derry, Richard Grassie, Mark Harrison, Elizabeth Hoff, Matt Holyoak, Yoshitaka Kono among others, expertly sub-edited by @patrickmulkern.bsky.social. Enjoy! (That's enough Doctor Who for a while)

Finally binged #Adolescence #AdolescenceNetflix Hugely impressive piece of work. And what a find in young Owen Cooper. 👏🏻 @netflix.com

Pleased to see Heaven Sent topping the RT list. First saw it 10 years ago – in draft form with loads of green-screen holes still in place – but still realised it was a masterpiece. Recommended it to be RT's Drama of the Week. @racheltalalay.com #DoctorWho www.radiotimes.com/tv/sci-fi/do...

Enjoying Alan’s day gear in the finale. #TraitorsUS #AlanCumming

'Guaranteed to chill the blood'. Episode one of The Web of Fear reviewed in The Stage and Television Today (8th February 1968).

An essential item for movie buffs. The earliest #LaurelAndHardy films beautifully restored for Blu-ray, with new scores by @neilkbrand.bsky.social and liner notes by Paul Merton. Fascinating to watch their movies in order as the partnership evolved. Still very funny after nearly 100 years.

In preparation for The Coro show in Ulverston tonight, here I am at Stan's birthplace!! www.thecoro.co.uk/event/an-eve...

It's my mug in the new issue of @radiotimes.bsky.social – read all about how I (almost) took on a Gladiator but did get my hands on a pugil stick and a peek at Giant's leotard.

@manningofficial.bsky.social KM, delighted to clock that you’ve gone 🟦 and I love the pic of you rocking last year’s RT Covers Party 🩵💙

#ARealPain ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jesse Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin impressive as cousins rebonding on a trek through Poland exploring their Jewish roots. Lots of Chopin on the soundtrack.

Parliament Hill

Good morning, London!

And here's a little video walkaround of the set, which even includes a very half-hearted impression of Hartnell. In it, I forget to mention that the metamophosis between Doctor Whos was shot earlier in the day. #DoctorWho www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5qV...

Enjoying revisiting the Doctor Who Prom on BBC2. The Beeb held it back from the summer as a Xmas treat. Was such fun on the night.

#OTD 50 years ago the very first #FawltyTowers was taped at the BBC. "Right from the start it was an extremely good and unique show,” said RT photographer Don Smith, who was there that night and captured the moment for the Radio Times Archive. www.radiotimes.com/tv/comedy/fa...

“The Time Lords… They’re my own people, Jamie.” It’s #DoctorWho: #TheWarGames day. Here’s our Story Guide entry from 2009 and all the RT coverage from 1969, where the Doctor’s race was first named. www.radiotimes.com/tv/sci-fi/do...

#TomBaker really is the gift that keeps on giving. No other actor has given Radio Times such witty, thoughtful and entertaining interviews over the past half century. Beautifully assembled here by Stuart M.

London now

“We deal with the odd, the unexplained, anything on Earth or even beyond…” #UNIT #DoctorWho 1970. Season 7. Don Smith @radiotimes.bsky.social

Materialising tomorrow #TomBaker @radiotimes.bsky.social

Bravo to all involved in this hilarious, high-camp production. Oscar Wilde out and proud! Sparkling cast led by the magnificent Sharon D Clarke.

Soon #TomBaker
