Will certainly be checking this out. The Gilligan episodes of The X-Files are, for me, among the very best: Soft Light, Drive, Small Potatoes, Paper Hearts, Je Souhaite, Unruhe (still terrifying).

This is a photograph of actor Bob Peck lying on a bed holding a gun in one hand and a teddy bear in the other.

On this day 40 years ago the first episode of of a masterpiece was shown on BBC2 & repeated on BBC1 almost immediately.

Forever grateful to my 6th form English teacher for recording it on vhs and playing it to our class over several lessons though it was certainly not curriculum!

Word of the Day is ‘tandsmør’, from Danish. It describes bread that is buttered so thickly you can see tooth marks in it after every bite. Its literal translation? ‘Tooth butter’.

Dear @stephencolbert.bsky.social,

Thanks for all the years of speaking truth to power & finding the funny in fascism.
Looking forward to following you wherever you land,

I needed that. Thank you!

Suffolk evening flopsy.

That's fantastic news. Congratulations.
