Monday? If you insist. But it's not a real one is it? 🤔

Just starting on Talking Pictures - Adventures of a Plumber's Mate starring Christopher Biggins. I wouldn't trust him anywhere near my boiler... 😲 #TPTV

Ok, which smartass at BBC2 thought it would be funny to try and prank us in to thinking it's Monday when it's actually Sunday by putting #OnlyConnect and the other quizzes on tonight. Bet you're having a right giggle aren't you? Taking advantage of the most discombobulating week of the year. Fiends!

And now Sabalenka is doing the Macarena. This is not a new tennis shot but she just started dancing when they played it in the arena during a time out. Serious stuff this... #BattleoftheSexes

So much for #BattleoftheSexes when they can't even get a reliable video feed out of Dubai and the commentators in the UK haven't a clue what's happening. At least Andrew Cotter will make it funny 😃

No sure about this tennis Battle of the Sexes. It's already been done when King beat Riggs in 1973, and that was a proper match with no messing around with the court. Ideally Sabalenka will destroy Kyrgios but that's just because he's always been a grade A dickhead... 🎾

Haven't seen it in years but happy memories of Transworld Sport. Perfect for Channel 4 with its focus on sporting events you'd never heard of. Whether it was Slovenian bog-snorkelling, Nepalese martial arts or llama racing from Peru it was a world of wonder. Sad to see it go youtu.be/NDTszexdbGo?...

Post a random picture or else everything will go bad in 2026

Well of course I'm awake at silly o'clock again. Body clock completely borked. Much as I enjoyed England's two day win, there's a gap this morning. Guess I'll just have to watch the highlights again 😃 #Ashes

#LivesWellLived Pleasant change to have an obituary programme that doesn't try and squeeze everyone in but takes a deeper look at a few of the most significant deaths of the year. Already excellent on Robert Redford, this is well worth watching #BBC2

Off to catch up on some sleep with a smile 😃 #Ashes #AUSvENG

Also the first time in nearly 15 years we can use the gag: "What do you call an Australian with a bottle of champagne?" "Waiter!" 😃🍾 #Ashes #AUSvENG

England beat Australia down under for the first time since January 2011! As bonkers as a game of cricket can get, but that's the English way. Well played to them a d it's amazing what a few warm up games can do! Good luck Melbourne with the Barmy Army on the lash tonight! 😃 #Ashes #AUSvENG

Oh dear oh dear Ben. I do not think you wanted to do that. No moment of glory for the skipper as he plays a silly shot to get out and ratchets up the tension unnecessarily #Ashes #AUSvENG

Root lbw by the barest of margins but allows Stokes to come in for the moment of glory (probably) #Ashes #AUSvENG

Drinks at the cricket. Make mine a large one... 🍷 #Ashes #AUSvENG

Well played Jacob Bethell. Calm under the circumstances and good running to steal cheeky singles. Just hope Harry Brook has his sensible head on today #Ashes #AUSvENG

Rumours from Jim Maxwell on TMS about an extra game tomorrow to compensate MCG ticket holders. Nice idea, but surely England's management will have already booked the lad's tee off times for the next three days... ⛳ #Ashes #AUSvENG

Crawley lbw for 37 after one of his better efforts. One difference in this innings is that England have got away more of their big shots that could have turned in to wickets than in previous innings. Bethell looking calm and Root is in. What could possibly go wrong? #Ashes #AUSvENG

77/2 at tea, or for UK viewers and listeners, extra strong coffee (I'm on my second). A cheeky Shiraz under the circumstances wouldn't be unreasonable at 4.15am. No explanation for what's happened in the last two hours. Australia below their best and England in the last chance saloon #Ashes #AUSvENG

Carse lasts 8 balls for 6 runs. Calling his shots agricultural would be an insult to most farmers. Some kind of normal service resumed with Bethell and hopefully some of the nervelessness of youth... #Ashes #AUSvENG

Starc bowls Duckett but credit to him for getting England off to a start. As if this game couldn't get any more deranged, Brydon Carse appears to be batting at 3. Beyond any reasonable explanation... #Ashes #AUSvENG

England 45/0 off 6 overs. Great powerplay - only 130 more to win! #Ashes #AUSvENG

England chasing like it's a T20. It's a long shot, but it might just work... #Ashes #AUSvENG

Let the madness continue. Lying in bed listening to Australian wickets fall until they are 132 all out. England need 175 to win a match that's as drunk as a stag do in Noosa. Anything could happen in the next half hour. Especially with Crawley and Duckett involved 😲 #Ashes #AUSvENG

God, he looks like Les Dennis #totp

Still remember first time I did my armpits with an upside down hand dryer. Felt like a rite of passage #totp

The video for Welcome to the Pleasuredome is absolutely amazing but a 1985 #totp fashion parade will do nicely 😃

A good water company is even harder to find these days #totp

Proper old school Europop. They don't make 'em like Baltimora anymore #totp

Such a shame we never got the Phil Collins/Mick Jagger duet #totp

Majestic Annie! Booo-ooooo-oooo-ooooom #totp

Did anyone ever have one of those spiky things from the Innovations catalogue from Midge's video? #totp

Paul King and the Extreme Mullets! Have always liked the song and he was good on MTV so lots to like #totp

I think if I'd been stuck in space with HAL I'd want to take a hammer to it just for that incredibly annoying voice #2001ASpaceOdyssey

Didn't know 2001: A Space Odyssey was on ITV4. Haven't seen it in years but have joined about half way through. HAL is still doing things for Dave so that's ok... #BoxingDay

Don't say this often but well done That's TV! Switched all their music channels to Christmas tunes at the start of December but have reverted to That's 80s and their other services today! Christmas movie channels still there though, probably until February... #BoxingDay

Make a Bond movie casual A View to a Chill

Just in case you missed it at 5.39 this morning! I post something like this every year as it is a big deal for me. Sadly too many ghosts of Christmas past mean I can't enjoy the big day any more so the first tangible sign of its passing always brings a huge wave of relief. Happy #BoxingDay everyone!

England 110 all out. When I woke up at 4.15 I was fearing the worst after Australia had been rolled but this was as mad as it gets by English standards. Never a dull moment... #Ashes #AUSvENG

England are 88 for 8. No subtitles could ever explain this though #Ashes #AUSvENG

First bus of the day klaxon! Normal service is resumed 😀 #BoxingDay

Great sense of relief when England weren't batting first last night, but just merely delaying the inevitable... #Ashes #AUSvENG

Boogieing at this time on Christmas Day is asking a bit much #totp

Someone actually said "Why don't we..." and this routine somehow came to be. Only in 1977 #totp

Thanks as always to Elvis Costello's concert version of Knowing Me Knowing You for making realise what a good song it is #totp

Are they supposed to be common men? #totp

Hang on, didn't we have to sit through this last night? Cheap bit of video I guess #totp
