Motsi is, admittedly, being a bit of a wildcard tonight, but she's right. We do need performances like the one given by La Voix. And I can't STAND the talk of those willing the destruction of the BBC and risking all the pleasure that shows like #Strictly provide. #SCD

We're nearly at the end. Alicia has opened her own sustainability company, in case you wanted to know.

I turn my back for 5 mins and my wife starts watching some Christmas movie on Netflix with Alicia Silverstone and Melissa Joan Hart.
"Oh, they're now middle-aged," I say and check their Wiki pages. "Shit, they're born at the same time as me. I'M MIDDLE AGED!"

Hope you have better days ahead.
As Kirk says in that movie, "there are always...possibilities."

I’m the same. I just have to think about it to get a lump in the throat. It’s the scene, it’s the performances and - for me - the fact that Caroline is no longer here to write anything more.

Isn't it just the best?

I was asked to contribute to an article about heartbreaking TV moments so I wrote about Sue Johnston and Liz Smith in The Royle Family www.radiotimes.com/tv/drama/mos...

So they did broadcast it then?

Oh that's interesting. He was doing some to-camera stuff in that period, wasn't he? Maybe they deemed him slightly too highbrow.

So many hours spent watching this at uni when I ought to have been studying www.youtube.com/watch?v=5bIT...

Ah, how nice. Thank you. I'm probably cracking the same jokes now as then.

Just worked out that it's now been exactly 20 years since I got my first byline in Radio Times.

Last night, for a laugh, my wife sang, "I don't know much, but I know I love you" to me in the style of Linda Ronstadt and Aaron Neville and I now can't get the awfulness of that song out of my head. So I feel compelled to share my pain here.

Can’t believe this has arrived for me to read and I first have to do a day’s work. How unfair. @tenacrebooks.bsky.social

That’s cool. My son and his girlfriend were drinking in the Bookbinders the other week. That’s at the end of that road.

Rewatching the very first Inspector Morse and - somehow - John Thaw was just 45 when this ep was first shown.

YouTube video by Hobbsy Adam and Joe: Joe's impression of Jools Holland (18 April 2009)

Instant cheer-up: Joe Cornish impersonates Jools Holland.

Robbie Coltrane then did his own version a generation later when promoting Cracker.

It is. Isn't it an amazing shot?

Post a non-religious photo you think of as holy

BBC employs legal expert to fight Trump's lawsuit.

Me too - worth it for that documentary alone.

In what may be a bigger scandal than the DG quitting, The Box of Delights looks to be leaving iPlayer BEFORE Christmas. #TheBoxOfDelights

At the John le Carre exhibition at the Weston Library in Oxford. Amazing to see original pages from Tinker Tailor, a letter from Alec Guinness…

Long live terrestrial, linear TV.
Tonight would have been shite and, quite frankly, impossible without it.

Just shows that if you spend your childhood watching Murder, She Wrote, great things can happen.
I feel seen.
Well done, Alan Carr!!!!
