Sorry to see 'Wycliffe' actor Jack Shepherd has gone. Watched him recently in the 1977 BBC adaptation of Dracula and he was fantastic as Renfield.

If he pours you two fingers of whisky you'll be under the table.

I think this may be a failure of the advertising to think outside of its own world. Argos for years has excelled at toy sales amongst retailers but that's only a thing recognised within the industry and not a general public perception.

It's that time of year! The Reith Lectures start on BBC Radio 4 today ....and I post this old one. #ReithLectures

My tribute cartoon for Pauline Collins in the current Private Eye. New issue is out tomorrow (26th)

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture. They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Canada is releasing a set of stamps celebrating the nation's graphic novelists. These stamps feature Kate Beaton, Jimmy Beaulieu, Guy Delisle, Julie Doucet, Bryan Lee O’Malley and Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas, alongside some of their famous works.

The Christmas Radio Times will find it hard to top that cover! If you're a someone who enjoys cartoons or even a cartoonist yourself then this mag is an essential purchase.

Phew managed to nab two tickets for 'An Evening With... David Tennant' at the Lyceum next Monday after playing chase the seats. 'Select seats'... 'nope they're gone'... ' nope those as well'. Buying tickets is so stressful these days.

Just back from a showing of 'Sunlight' and Q&A with Nina Conti and Shenoah Allen. Absolute gem of a movie. Crazy it hasn't had a wider cinema release but it arrives on digital this week (Apple and Amazon I think). Top recommend.

As it's #DoctorWhoDay here's a Private Eye @privateeyenews.bsky.social cartoon of mine that appeared earlier in the year.

@smershpod.com Just saw Smersh as a podcast recommendation in the Nov issue of The List here in Edinburgh. Have you seen it?

Anyone after tickets for Inside no.9 tickets for next Saturday's matinee performance in Edinburgh?

This one didn't get taken I'm afraid... but any excuse to draw a Mr Man is ok in my book. #booksky #agathachristie #mrmen

Glad to see that this one was selected for THE WEEK this erm week.

To wit, the matters of the morning reports and the colonel's jeep. #page42

Just caught up with this. What a great first episode. Bit parts for Anna Wing, Davey Jones from The Monkees and Doctor Who stalwarts Bernard Kay and Derek Ware.

Not the first to make this point. But there is a tyrant in charge of another country who is accused of being heavily linked to a paedophile sex ring - and supposed ‘patriots’ in this country are passionately willing him to take down our national broadcaster. Madness.

Lovely slideshow of Tom Baker getting his MBE (Mrs Bakers Eldest). The photos have been nabbed by lots of Doctor Who accounts and clickbaiters uncredited but they were taken by Oliver McNeil. www.facebook.com/share/r/19JV...

Two new #DoctorWho #crosswords just dropped at #CrypticWho crypticwho.com Test your Whovian knowledge!

This is so sad. Among many other things, Rachel was a great champion for graphic novel coverage in national newspapers.

The trailer for OBSOLETE episode 1. Coming November 23rd. YouTube Link in second post!

The wait is over! The first ever black and white episode! 8pm Premiere: 🚓 Z-CARS (1962) 🚓 starring #JeremyKemp #JamesEllis #BrianBlessed #StratfordJohns #FrankWindsor #BernardKay 'Four of a Kind' #TPTVsubtitles

Hoping to see a few of you on Sunday. Please do come and say hello. Rare chance to meet Peter Harness, with bonus Rob Shearman and, hopefully Toby Hadoke.

It's a cracking episode. I knew it would be. Have a listen.

I'm looking forward to this and the next podcast. You'll find out more about the BBC thing here than anywhere else I imagine.

🧵On our revelations today about the BBC Coup and the Prescott Dossier. The leaked ‘BBC Bias’ memo Trump used to attack the BBC was authored by Michael Prescott — a Hanover lobbyist paid by US tech/media giants tied to Trump. Full story: bylinetimes.com/2025/11/11/b... 1/12

The BBC is in a mess... but not the mess you might think... Read @arusbridger.bsky.social’s column on Michael Prescott—and his friend Robbie Gibb: www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/media/... ... and Alan’s earlier investigation on BBC board members: www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/media/... 1/6🧵
