I wrote this week’s Radio Times cover(s) feature on Avatar: Fire and Ash. Inside I speak to our lord and saviour James Cameron on the “stupidest business model in the world” – making a movie “that fails if it’s not in the top ten in history”. All good shops etc. Feliz Na’vidad!

Lots to admire in The War Between The Land and the Sea's thorny eco-reckoning premise but my god it is so heavy handed. I thought my eyes were going to roll out of my skull.

James Acaster getting his 'food hell' on Saturday Kitchen –  late contender for TV moment of the year

Trying to imagine a scenario in which I am not able to mute this World Cup draw. I think I'd throw myself out of a window.

Find the idea of television and film being almost entirely dominated by Netflix dispiriting to say the least.

Have I ever told you how much I love Wolf Alice? Well, I love Wolf Alice.

Almost every reason for wanting this is evil and the positives are stuff like 'hey, I wonder what it would look like if Goku was at my Bar Mitzvah'

Saw the stage adaptation of The Spy Who Came in From the Cold last night. Some great performances but it didn’t quite work for me. A bit too disjointed and overwrought IMO, which undermines the moody sophistication of the book. The peril, I guess, of condensing novels for theatre.

Have had to ban myself from watching Frasier over breakfast because it kept on making me want to take the day off to watch more Frasier

I stopped using Twitter for many reasons but chief among them is just how fucking tragic it is now

Complaints about Pluribus being too slow or whatever are really sifting the virgin Breaking Bad fans from the chad Better Call Saul enjoyers

Went to watch the recording of Taskmaster: Champion of Champions last night. Maybe the most I’ve laughed in my entire life? No idea how much of Sam Campbell will survive the edit but the man is simply not of this Earth.

Looking forward to Link saying 'well, that happened!' and everyone involved in the production having to go into witness protection

Just saw that Coca-Cola AI ad in the wild and it felt like coming across a snuff film

I hope he still does the voice

That Tom Felton video floating around reminds me of the time I saw Glengarry Glen Ross on Broadway and couldn't believe how annoyingly loud and boisterous the crowd were. American actors must come to the West End and think everyone hates them.

There are like six Spider-Men. I think people can get their head around it.

Joyce Carol Oates versus Elon Musk

Toby Jones is very good as the parrot from Aladdin

Really is a testament to The Traitors' format that it can get that kind of drama out of a group of people who inherently don't need the money. #CelebrityTraitors

Shout out to the guy behind us who said, “I hope they play Wonderwall”

lmao

Do you think God stays in heaven because he too lives in fear of what he’s created?

Hard to overstate how sophisticated, monumental and resonant this week’s Andor is. Two of the greatest episodes of television ever made. It is a miracle it exists.

Did this week's Doctor Who make logical sense? No. But was it a smart, compelling story full of sharp political satire? Also no.

If only there was some way to tell that this RPG is French

I wrote the cover feature on Star Wars: Andor for Radio Times this week. A genuine honour to write about what makes this show so extraordinary.

If you're in the UK and enjoyed the first three eps of #Andor, you could do a lot worse than to pick up our @radiotimes.bsky.social Star Wars special, on sale now - @spkellywriter.bsky.social delves into the real politics and history that inspired the show with Tony Gilroy and the cast, plus... 1/3

It does feel like nothing good or right or just or fair is ever going to happen again. Probably no big deal.

Me seeing a mouse on a tube platform: what is this? a whimsical little friend? a furry companion of the night? Me seeing a mouse in my flat: I must become the killer from Saw

The news: the AI industry is in crisis because of DeepSeek! My brain:

The world is being stripped for parts by the meanest, greediest, most depraved people alive. They know the price of everything and the value of nothing. It is so fucking bleak.

"If you miss #TheTraitors, don't worry, The Apprentice is back next week" yeah alright, if you miss Christmas don't worry, it's Ash Wednesday next week. Fuck are you on about.

Leanne reminds me of every soldier I’ve met (derogatory) #TheTraitors

Can’t wait for The Traitors to end and it turns out the lovely Alexander got us into the Iraq war or something #TheTraitors

No way Frankie and Alexander make it through this. Cursed ending #TheTraitors

I am at a Traitors final watchalong and there are fake Welsh cakes

Maybe the best episode of The Traitors yet? Barring last year's finale, of course #TheTraitors

CHARLOTTE! THIS IS LIQUID TELEVISION #TheTraitors

Freddie has been absolutely done in here, my god #TheTraitors
