Anyone else think the Beeb has put out the news about Doctor Who today, hoping that Strictly announcements will deflect attention? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

"Hello, babes!"

"Everyone thinks my generation is lazy..." said - without irony - by the millennial chef of the pub I'm currently in, whilst talking about his singing and photography ambitions, to the couple who ordered their food fifteen minutes earlier...

I still think Davies should write one more story - good or bad - to sort out the plot mess he's created, and to leave a clean sheet for the next show runner. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Smart World Cup tactics from USA

Watched the Buffy episode "Hush" last night, and it was super creepy, but that was nothing to do with The Gentlemen, but all to do with watching the show for the first time since the revelations about Whedon dropped. The opening scene where Buffy is asked to lie on a table is... uncomfortable.

The BBC Sports Personality of the Year should introduce a new Dumb-Arse Moment of the Year award. Leading contenders at this point; Ben Stokes and Southampton FC. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricke...

I have travelled on ten different ex-Southern trains today, and not one of them has been more than a couple of minutes late. I for one, hail our new railway overlords!* *I'll admit to have seen some shambolic service on some other routes, however - looking at you, Thameslink!

“Shoot! You not only got the wrong planet, you got the wrong solar system! … I mean, a wrong planet I can understand—but a whole solar system?”

Wrong call. Southampton aren't going to even start to be able to put this behind them until Eckert is gone. If I were playing for them, I'd be looking for a way out. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

"The public can submit a potential name for the new silverware through The Hundred website." I think there's already a Pointless trophy... www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricke...

Spurs fans gloating about Arsenal losing the Champions League final. Really? Do you *really* want to go there? (Not an Arsenal fan, btw).

When you think you've realised a colleague hasn't investigated a problem thoroughly, and you're the one who's going to have to tell the boss...

Leia: "I recognized your foul stench when I was brought on board" Tarkin: "Yes, sorry about that, it is rather hot in here and these slippers are fleece lined. Anyway, Alderaan..."

Our Makerfield candidate Rob Kenyon is very proud that his grandfather fought in World War 2. And I’m sure his grandfather would be very proud that Rob has become one of the people he spent the War fighting against.

No he's not.

Oh, I do like this. Very good!

My flat faces slightly North East and last night the breeze, such as it was, was coming from the South East square on to the end of the building. No air flow at all, the temperature in my bedroom didn't drop below 26°C all night.

Pick a Bond villain from the photos you already have on your phone

Excellent!

Surprised it's not called Bad Dog. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Never much cared before, but I'm now calling for a complete abolition of the monarchy. "William revealed he had his scones the Devonian way - layering clotted cream first followed by jam." Duke of Cornwall??!! This man *cannot* be allowed to inherit the throne. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Very sorry to hear this. Vila was a great character; Michael will be fondly remembered.

She probably just wanted him out of the house... www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This is so sad. I cannot imagine what their family is going through. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

In memory of Jon Pertwee, gone 30 years today but still as iconic as ever.

RIP Jon Pertwee, who died 30 years ago today.

Watched a YouTube video last night that had a reference to Forde Abbey in Dorset, that the voice over described as being a former "Citizarian" abbey.

WTF? We've spent *years* listening to theories about who will play Bond next (Elba, Cavill et al) and it now turns out the auditions haven't even started, and we're probably going to end up with Gavin Watkins from Croydon! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
