Thinking back to last night on the tube when a man pulled out a mini disc player, changed the disc and pressed play again. Everyone in the carriage stared at it like they were looking at an exhibit in Ripley's Believe It Or Not. Yes, I was one of them. A mini disc player out in the wild. Amazing.

£7.70 for a pint of Guinness should include a date with Daryl McCormack as a minimum. #OWMUCH

Emerald Fennell is what Jarvis Cocker was singing about in Common People. #moviesky #filmsky

I'm watching the new Frankenstein film and Oscar Isaac really is the most underrated actor. One of those rare non English actors who can do a flawless English accent.

I realise great acting is not just about being able to do an accent well, but he really is tremendous.

Saw this at LFF last night. Best film of the festival (so far) and probably the best film I've seen all year. Not an easy watch by any means but completely brilliant.

Patti Smith at the London Palladium tonight. Absolutely stunning. A true rock star.

(Yes she wheeled Johnny Depp out for the encore, which was a choice...)

Very much enjoyed 'Dracula' at the Lyric in Hammersmith if you're looking for a cheap night at the theatre. Probably not one for the misogynists or terfs, but who wants to sit in a theatre with them anyway?

Because everyone is assigned a random number at 10am. Doesn't matter how long you've been on before that.

Yes, can we all just stand down on the Oasis snobbery thanks, it's really very NON-U.

I saw it yesterday and loved it! I was so pleased to see Amy Madigan on screen again.

The orange nonce wants peace in Ukraine because he wants the Nobel Peace Prize. He wants that because Obama won it.

Don't forget that.

I actually watched the news today and have been in a state of permanent rage ever since.

Shan't be doing that again.

Gah! Live Aid is one of my very earliest memories. 4 years old, at home with Mum, telling me who everyone is and who is good and who is crap, dancing around the living room. Later, explaining Concord to me and how Collins could play in the UK and US on the same day. Set me in motion, music-wise.

I've seen people effectively saying 'yeah, you didn't get it because you just weren't listening'.

No, it's BECAUSE I was listening to the inane dialogue closely that I hated it so much. I feel like people are being gaslit on a massive scale.

Honestly, one of the dullest plays I've seen in some time.

On the other hand, In Praise of Love, which I saw at the Orange Tree on Thursday was wonderful. Recommended if you fancy a trip out to Richmond.

At the interval, I stood next to the door for some air where the security guards were handing out cards for readmission. A huge amount of weary looking people said 'no thanks' before leaving forever.

During my time on this earth, I've read a lot of new plays in my (old) role as a play reader, and the script for Stereophonic would barely have made it past the first cull. The fact that it's been through some kind of development process is baffling.
