A photo with a Getty Images watermark because I’m cheap of a Muppet with a yellow face and an orange bob wearing orange defenders and holding her toy bunny. She has a pink puffer jacket with a blue snowflake on it.

I took a photograph of a rock in the final episode that nearly made me cry.

I need to speak to other people who have finished A Man on the Inside season two, thank you.

The Christmas edition of Good Housekeeping is NINE POUNDS NINETY NINE. £10 for a magazine!
