With a view to starting the TV series, I rewatched the film for the first time last week. Can’t believe 30 years have passed. As great as I remembered it in my head. And shorter.

Just realised Kim Hellberg is being interviewed on BBC Tees right now. You can listen to it from the beginning on BBC Sounds.

Important three points after the past few games. Fry and Targett were immense. And Strelec getting on the score sheet is very encouraging. #utb #boro

Bit harsh to take Strelec off straight after he scored that header, mind.

Brilliant first half. Agree, bit worried about their keeper.

In January 1934, the Daily Mail published the notorious headline β€œHurrah for the Blackshirts” written by owner Lord Rothermere to support Oswald Mosley and the British Union of Fascists.

It hasn’t changed.

As journalists working today many of us are taught to recognise disinformation when we see it and fight back against it.

Unfortunately there are some who willingly seek it out and put it on their front pages. A disgrace to the profession.

Just naked racism from Farage and the Mail.

Only British and commonwealth citizens are allowed to vote. It's not 'stealing' to legally take part in your own country's elections

Ah, hope. There you are.

Huge congratulations to Hannah Spencer, the Green Party and the good folk of Gorton and Denton.

I hope other parties and the wider electorate take note. You don’t have to dance to Farage’s hateful divisive tune. We can do so much better. We can be so much better.

I’ll take a point after that poor first half. We’re going through a sticky patch at the moment. A few weeks ago we were carving through teams like butter. Now they’re finding ways to slow us down, stifle and nullify us. Hope we can find the answer before our points gap to 3rd disappears. #utb #boro

Relieved we got the equaliser, but Ayling is having a bit of a β€˜mare tonight. Would feel a bit more at ease if Fry came on. #utb #boro

And this is coming from Andrew’s former protection officer who was jailed for six years for defrauding colleagues, friends and others out of life savings, redundancy cash and retirement money in a Β£3m investment scam.

How much of a 'c' must you be for even this guy to call you one. 😳

Just listen to what Andrew’s nickname was amongst royal protection officers.

Justin Webb saying the quiet part out loud on #r4today :

JW: β€œDoes it change the way the royal family are reported now?”

Ex-BBC Peter Hunt: β€œYou would hope so. Because the key word is β€˜reporting’. Reporters are meant to report.”

JW: β€œBut we don’t, do we? I mean, we haven’t.”

Former BBC correspondent Peter Hunt is right. #r4today

β€œI think the King has done the bear minimum consistently in order to separate the institution from Andrew. To have the focus on Andrew and not to have questions asked [of the King and the monarchy itself].”

Can we stop all of the reverence and bowing now, please? As well as the tax-payer funding of their lifestyles and our politicians treating them differently to any other citizen when it comes to the law? #bbcqt
