He's an odd little Junkbot. He's not sure about his legs yet. They may be too short.

If we can all make #UKGiftHour #UKGiftAM anything like the Twitter of old it will be the greatest move we've ever made!

The round typewriter ribbon tin has been a challenge until I bought a 3d printer. #vintage #robot #cute #3dprinter

Thank you. I'm very happy he's found his way onto camera.

Would you mind if I ran a company wide meeting on AI using this slide? Lots of people are interested and I keep getting asked about it. Saves me having to do the leg work and I can see a promotion on the cards. #toescrossed

Old Zealand is near The Netherlands. To the left of that massive slipper.

For anyone with a need for a cute little office desk buddy. He won't read your personal emails and won't sip your coffee. Your biscuits might not be safe. junkbotsrobots.etsy.com

What you might not realize about the moon is that some areas are remarkably flat, and it's home to giant-mouthed aliens with a peculiar taste for astronaut ration packs.

Saving Money in the TV Industry

Making new TV shows is epensive. My solution? From now on, just make shows that have the same name as ones that already exist but with one additional letter. This will save money because there will be no need to make new logos. We can just add a letter to the pre-existing ones. Here are some examples:

Columboy
Documentary series about a boy who looks vaguely similar to Peter Falk, the actor who played Columbo in the eponymous TV detective show. Over the course of the series, we come to understand what life must be like for a boy who looks a little bit like Peter Falk and it makes us think about how we would feel if we bore a mild resemblance to Peter Falk.

Matclock
Sitcom about a man named Mat Clock who, ironically, does not own any clocks or timekeeping devices. This causes him to be late to various appointments which leads to humorous consequences (haven't thought of what these consequences are yet but they are very humorous).

The Wires
Gritty drama series about people whose job it is to install fibre optic broadband in homes and places of business. No two installations are ever the same in this line of work. Sometimes it goes smoothly but sometimes there is a problem with one of the wires and they have to get a replacement wire. So it is very dramatic.

Been working on some ideas for how the TV industry can make lots of new shows but still save some money

Columboy could finally tell the tale of how he lost his eye. I'm assuming it was from that coat belt. It looked dangerous.

That's one of them up righty type pianos. Does this work with one of them lying down type pianos?

He's "ready rubbed". Just don't tell anyone at MasterChef. Especially Gregg Wallace.

I've always wondered if the hypnotic style middle bit caused anyone to aimlessly walk into its trap? Seems like a design flaw.
