My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

The Express is furious about this because the moment you show those who repeat anti-immigration rhetoric the real human stories their narrative collapses. The “immigrants” are people. Our friends, colleagues and family. And it’s this nation of neighbours that is what makes Britain great.

I guess a few of you will remember when the streaker craze started. There was even a lad at my senior school who was, in dear ol' John Arlott's mind, a "freaker" (from my book, Made in Luton).

The 50 wealthiest families own more wealth than the bottom 50% of the population. How can this Labour Government say this is a "cost of living" budget and refuse to tax the rich? They care about protecting power and wealth. And cost of living is a buzz phrase for them. Dire.

It’s Jeremy Brett’s birthday Here’s my favourite Holmes delivering a pub fight masterclass with panache, killer moves & a knowing smile. He even gets a round of applause from the regulars at the end. Love the post-fight analysis with Watson. The man was ridiculously watchable.

The nightmarishly surreal title sequence to SHADOWS OF FEAR (1970), ITV's incredibly nasty psychological horror/thriller anthology. Heavily reminiscent of Yellow Submarine, it's accompanied by Roger (Hammer House of Horror, George & Mildred) Webb's queasy cocktail jazz theme tune.

My most popular cartoon by a long chalk is also oddly niche, in that it mostly appeals to a generation who remember the song it refers to and enjoy the nostalgia for their youth. I can draw one for you if you like.
