Bachelor Knight Comedy about a teacher (Cary Grant) whose playboy antics are curbed by a judge who insists that he romance a girl (Shirley Temple), until her crush on him wears off.

Listen, right – after sitting there for years, the wonderfully peculiar they-couldn't-make-it-today Cary Grant & Shirley Temple film Bachelor Knight is only going to be on the iplayer for another 17 days. Don't miss it. www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

The zombie factory. Things seemed to have settled down by then though.

I should be making all sorts of hay out of these kind words about Gold from the traitor Alan Carr, but there's not much point as it's been unavailable for years thanks to... *checks notes*... significant financial discrepancies at the publishing house.

Brilliant. Another of his we had on the fridge for years was a solemn baby in a highchair, holding a violin while his exasperated parents looked on. "Not bloody Mendelssohn again."

Landlords hate it, which is an encouraging sign.

Thank you for this – since 2007 my greatest regret in life has been not stopping to take a photo of this sign when we passed it.

I had a Tony Husband stuck to the fridge for years – a man sitting at a table in front of a lampshade made of a pair of Y-fronts, while his wife explained to a visitor that 'Charles makes lampshades out of his old underpants.' Always hoped to buy the original...

Just been to see Stewart Lee's new show. Catch it if you can. We were asked not to take photos, but the temptation was too great...

It's still there, and the wind has blown it on to a new page. It ends on a cliffhanger...

Thanks – good film. I watched the trailer of the remake, which seems to have been directed by Tommy Wiseau. You clearly enjoy being wrung out, so look out for Metro Manila if you've not already seen it...

I'll give it a whirl. I would have nominated Metro Manila and Kids.
