Properly gutted to hear this. Red Dwarf WAS my teenage years - I still know every line of every episode of the Grant Naylor originals!

I'm so sad he and Doug apparently never reconciled.

You won't believe what Wizbit is doing now.

There's a lot of news around today but THIS is the bit I'm most excited about.

Well, bloody nora! #TheArchers 🤕🍾

I liked it better when tech entrepreneurs looked like this.

Absolutely SAME.

Losing local radio — and my mum Merseyside stations soundtracked David Lloyd’s relationship with his mother. Now he’s grieving a double loss

Every single word of this is true, heartfelt and powerful. *This* is why I grieve for the radio we've lost, the radio we used to have. I'm proud to have worked in radio when radio mattered

7 driving tests Paul? Pah! Try 11! #TheArchers

If only there were a cautionary tale about being too eager to accept the apparent time-saving capabilities of new technology.

Ha ha love it.

Reminded of this for some reason. #WorldCupDraw

At last, now my pitch for THE LOONEY TUNES SQUID GAME can be greenlit.

So this essentially means Netflix becomes the most powerful purveyor of what comes through your screens - big or small - on the planet. Huge doesn't cover it.
