Can't believe it's been a whole year since my eyes nearly rolled irretrievably into the back of my head

Warning if you're looking forward to Tip Toe on Channel 4 tonight: MASSIVE FUCKING SPOILER for episode one in this article. Why do journalists feel they have the right to spoil plot twists? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I don't know this James Birkett but he's clearly several kinds of arsehole

On a personal level, the 1993/94 Devotional Tour was a mental health disaster - technical issues, stress, depression, nervous breakdowns, multiple arrests, alcoholism, severe drug addiction, seizures and an on-stage heart attack - but musically Depeche Mode never sounded better, so there is that.

My third and final video on Tristram Cary’s incredible music for The Daleks’ Master Plan is out on YouTube now. Like the story, Cary’s music ends big! Enjoy here: youtu.be/_7L6NeDGZ2s?...

Dunno, I haven't seen them for a while

They grow up so fast ❤

Nice feature on the TV Movie 4K restoration in DWM. I watched it last night (with the missus, a rare event!) and, a few minor quibbles aside, thought it was sensational. Turns out a lot of the work was done in Davinci Resolve Studio, which I've been using for the past 5 years. Fantastic software.

Some obvious faults but I've seen far worse out on display in a window looking for fifty quid

Happy 30th McGanniversary! Especially if your #DoctorWho journey began on that late May Bank Holiday Monday evening back in 1996. Almost nine years we Children Of The TV Movie had to wait for the next new episode to turn up on TV. NINE BLOODY YEARS. But hey, didn't we have fun in the meantime?

Happy Threads Day to all who celebrate.

Little troublemakers in the making ❤️

Five Things I Noticed Whilst Watching The Daleks' Master Plan #DoctorWho

Won both of my FPL mini leagues. Just call me Pip Guardiola.

Not saying Sunday Brunch is beige and middle-class but Tim Killjoy just APOLOGISED to viewers for Ben Miller using the word "bloody" ("You're going to win the bloody World Cup!"), a word that even OFCOM consider to be "mild" and "unlikely to cause concern". Fuck's sake, Tim. Wet wipe.

Lovely event at HOME Manchester watching those miraculous #DoctorWho recoveries in the esteemed company of @filmisfabulous.bsky.social @tobyhadoke.bsky.social @themindrobber.bsky.social et al - special thanks to those of you that said hello, I tried to not let my social anxiety get the better of me!

Mavic Cheers

Bloody hell, forgot what sitting on the front row at the cinema was like. Hartnell's gurning is going to be twenty foot high

An unusually warm sunny day here in Manchester, so I'm doing what any self-respecting nerd would do in my position: go to the cinema and sit in a darkened room for three hours watching recently recovered 60s Dr Who in the company of a load of other nerds and Peter Purves.

'Accept cookies/confirm choices'. If you don't offer a 'reject/decline all' option from the outset, I'm not going through pages & pages of your 300 vendors selecting & deselecting as appropriate. Nor am I just going to agree to all out of resigned apathy. I simply don't use your site/app. Fuck off.

RIP Michael Keating. I don't think many would disagree that Vila was the heart and humanity of Blake's 7, not only for being present in all 52 episodes, but also being by far the most relatable character and a terrific foil for Paul Darrow as Avon. A fine actor with the gift of natural comic timing.

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

"Out on parole? Wanna look sharp? We've got you"

I don't know what's funnier, seeing Martin Kemp as the new face of Sun Life over 50s life insurance, or the way the TV advert suggests his only family is his dog

Literally putting the butt in butty

Things I enjoyed most about #SNLUK series one: - 45 Seconds With Fouracres (both of them) - Emma Sidi - The Airplane 2 gag in the Louis Theroux sketch - Emma Sidi - The elite level British Pork ad parody - Emma Sidi - The absurdly niche Michael Leggo reference in the Mr Blobby sketch - Emma Sidi

"Nisi decree you, decree you... NISI"

"PAUL MCGANN AND ERIC ROBERTS IN THE THE MOTION PICTURE EVENT OF THE YEAR" Proof that no one does bullshit quite like the Americans.

Case in point: the absolute state of this. She knows exactly where the camera is. You can almost hear the duff-duffs coming in at the end of the episode.

This is the true legacy of the Tories: the mainstream media's blood lust for political psychodrama following a 14 year long shitshow of lies, corruption, scandal & chaos. British politics will be at the mercy of self-serving, clickbait-hungry journos who think they're celebs for generations to come.

Same energy

SERAFINOWICZ AS FARAGE!!! DRAG HIM 😁😁😁 #SNLUK

"According to the map reference, that should be the entrance to the city of Telos."

If you're thinking of staying up all night to watch Kuenssberg and Mason frothing over the local election results, just ring the Samaritans instead, there are people who can help you.

Whoops! (cool new outfit though)

I've released Pt 2 of my Tristram Cary Daleks' Master Plan OST videos. Though less familiar (for reasons you might know), there's still much amazing music (and "music") to enjoy. On YouTube now! youtu.be/I03mxB-RWpM

"There should have been another threeway."

It wasn't just the BBC wiping and reusing tapes back in the day, us lot did it all the time

Caught up with Nigel's final scenes on EastEnders. Not a good idea first thing on a Monday morning... I stopped watching regularly many years ago, but occasionally check in when they do something interesting with the older characters. And this was beautifully done. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYvB...

Just caught up with the snooker. Wow. Poor bastard.

SNL UK doing the creepy "Got what it takes my wife" British Pork advert 😁

Doctor Who sketch on SNL UK right now folks!!!

May has arrived and so have our first gang of Canada goose goslings ❤

"Nice episode... would be a real shame if someone were to... animate it"

Madeley confirms he's on toilet in Greater Manchester
