Was great to see @mrrickygervais.bsky.social at Leicester Square Theatre testing his new stand up. Edgy and smart … as always! :) #TheLegend #RickyGervais #London #LeicesterSquare

Is it related to the series of films shown at BFI about 8-9 years ago?

Foyles usually does it as I bought many books there 1-2 weeks ahead. Waterstones probably too. I was hoping it will be available earlier, that’s why I went there and didnt order online :)

On the shelves. In the new nonfiction books section near the entrance at Piccadilly branch and plenty more in the basement where nature and travel books are.

Already bought it at Waterstones a few days ago. Great reading so far.

Easy to focus on these idiots but it doesn’t bring anything relevant. What are the plans to explain common people not to vote Reform fascists?

2/2 - They will change one day I am sure. They just do not use the same optics as Western European countries with a huge history of slave trade and colonialism.

1/2 - You may find it disgusting and I agree with you. In that part of Europe this is not considered being racist at all. Not even a mockery. Being originally from Slovakia I saw similar show on TV back there when I visited my parents and it was pretty much the same as that video from Poland.

visited twice during some small tours. It is really interesting to go down there by the stairs as no lifts are working (if I correctly remember)

Nice. Will listen to it. Love this book so much. One of the best I have read this year. Reading it slowly, not sure what to do when I finish :) actually reading it now on a train to Sussex coast.

Really looking forward to reading this book. Was on my list for some time and when I went to buy it to one of London's larger shops two weeks ago they could not find it. They had only one copy but were unable to allocate it over 3 floors. Luckily I found it in Waterstones.

A quick trip to Stanford-le-Hope in Essex. Bleak Essex coast at its best.

Such a nice event. Roddy Bottum from Faith No More, Man on Man and Imperial Teen interviewed by Jake Shears from Scissor Sisters about Roddy’s new book β€œThe Royal We”. Can’t stop reading it today.
