In the books that led to #heatedrivalry the #bisexuality of Ilya Rozanov is acknowledged. In the tv series it’s not mentioned leading to a flattening of the #bisexual identity in the show & bi-erasure across the media. Why? @skytv @CraveCanada @RadioTimes @BellMediaPR @BiDotOrg

We’ve only just heard about the passing of writer Daniel Postgate, son of Oliver of Bagpuss & Ivor the Engine fame. Daniel (61) was working on a drama idea about Bagpuss which we tried to get commissioned but couldn’t convince the BBC. He also had more ideas for Ivor. RIP Dan x

Very sad to hear about the death of Phillip Lowrie who played Dennis Tanner. Corrie should have kept him in the show when he returned in recent years. Here’s a link to the interview we did with Phillip on Distinct Nostalgia a few years ago. RIP Phil podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/d...
