She did bring the end of the monarchy one step closer though, with her successful mission to Balmoral, so we should give her some credit for that.

I waited over two years to see #Saltburn and I’ve enjoyed it even more than I expected.
Thank you, #BBCTWO for putting an end to the wait.
It’s a strong 9/10 from me.

Can’t believe they released the Epstein files to cover up for the Melania movie.

Dance group Ruby Flipper’s TOTP début on 06/05/76.

What a momentous day the 6th of May 1976 was. Not just my 10th birthday, but the début of Ruby Flipper on #TOTP. 😄
I suspect that, even though it was my birthday, I was watching. What else did a 10yo have to do on a Thursday? (Cubs was Wednesday & badminton club was Friday.)

#DavidLammy was right, for once. #AndrewGriffith won’t be deputising again at #DPMQs. That was a dismal performance. Fumbling his words, no energy, boring questions AND implying that young people are a burden to businesses. Dreadful man, dreadful party. #PMQs #Conservatives #Labour

I wrote this yesterday about the hero city of Minneapolis

I’m not suggesting the questions on #CelebrityMastermind are easier than the civilian version (cough!) but I just got all 10 right on Stuart Pearce’s *specialist subject* round. He ‘only’ scored 9. I didn’t even have time to revise. 😆

So grateful to #BBC & #RTE that we only had to wait 90 mins between #TheTraitorsUK #Uncloaked ending & #TheTraitorsIreland starting! Slane Castle looks fabulous, Siobhán McSweeney is ideal & there are already surprises amongst the players. Hooked! (But not happy with the start of ep 2!!)

Teamwork makes the dream work! A job well done, & what’s amazing (esp. for Lambert & the BBC) is that 4 series of civilian UK #TheTraitors have produced 4 different results, in a show where people think there are only 2 possible outcomes. That’s happened by chance, making it even more brilliant TV!

Ahead of #TheTraitors final, I’m hoping…
(a) if Rachel was randomly banished, that Stephen wins alone.
(b) if Rachel stays, that she wins with Stephen.
In other words, I’m definitely #TeamTraitor. I think they both deserve to win! Let’s see…

TV screen during The News Quiz on BBC Radio 4, on Friday 23/01/26, listing Alasdair Beckett-King and ignoring the other three guest panellists.

@misterabk.bsky.social Alasdair, congratulations on your evening of media dominance (The News Quiz & #WILTY?). It’s basically just you and Claudia tonight.
My TV thought you were so good on #TheNewsQuiz that it decided to bill you as the only guest… 😲

What is “in the of the” supposed to mean?

Matty Hyndman - The Traitors series 4 - in Scandi jumper, kissing a dog.

When Matty announced that he’d like everyone to visit him in #Edinburgh, that was addressed to us viewers, right? Yippee!
I’ll be there in August anyway. Looking forward to it even more now… 😁

This Faithful-on-Faithful-on-Faithful action is delicious to watch. Rachel and Stephen must be doing cartwheels internally.

PM Starmer’s media conference on Greenland and Trump, Monday 19/01/26.

Neville Chamberlain holding a piece of paper, after returning from the Munich Conference of 1938.

“I have spoken to Trump and I’m pretty sure he won’t invade Greenland.”

The next Thursday 6th of February is in 2031, so she’s certainly given herself plenty of time to prepare for this event.

What a result for John Higgins! If tomorrow’s final is John v Kyren, I won’t know who to support… but it should be one hell of a match!

The snooker’s on, and the TV news is coming from outside London’s Iranian embassy.
Have I woken up in May 1980 again?

Kyren, don’t do this to us! That was very hard to watch. What a relief! (Oh, and congratulations!)

This meal would’ve been a good opportunity for the ‘Faraaz’ character to rip off the prosthetic face, step out of the body suit & reveal to the others that she’s actually Nicola Adams. 🥊
The speech patterns & the smile gave it away from the start. 😉
#TheTraitors #Faraaz #ClaudiaWinkleman #EdGamble

I gasped at Ellie’s revelation (to the group) about her and Ross, even though I’ve known for a fortnight, like every other viewer. 😄
The drama of #TheTraitors is just brilliant.

Shadow justice secretary Robert Jenrick sacked Kemi Badenoch fires Jenrick from the shadow cabinet and suspends his party membership.

Today’s traitor reveal has come a lot earlier in the day than expected.

Unbelievable! All 8 first round matches in the #Masters have finished 6-2.
The quarter-finals start tomorrow. Can this run carry on?!
#snooker #MastersSnooker #BBCSport #NeilRobertson #ChrisWakelin

Is that the first time in the 5 UK series of #TheTraitors that the traitors have declined the opportunity to recruit another one? I can’t recall it happening before…
@thetraitors.bsky.social #BBCOne

It’s ridiculous now. Even #JuddTrump looks embarrassed by his winning score. All seven #Masters matches so far have ended 6-2. Just one more first round match to go; Robertson 🇦🇺 v 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Wakelin this evening. I wonder what the score will be…?!
#snooker #MastersSnooker #BBCSport

It’s happened again. Six matches out of six! 6-2 is the new 6-7! 😉😄

I’m no mathematician, but I think the probability of six results being the same in ‘first to six frames’ matches is 1:46,656 or 0.0021%. Please correct me if that’s wrong!

#snooker #Masters #SnookerMasters #BBCSport #JohnHiggins

Snooker Masters result. Round one. Mark Allen beats Mark Williams 6-2.

Snooker Masters result. Round one. Kyren Wilson beats Si Jiahui 6-2. This is the 5th 6-2 result in the five matches so far.

Five matches so far in the #Masters snooker, and all five have finished 6-2. Incredible.

FA Cup holders knocked out by a team 5 leagues and 117 places below them! Incredible! Humiliating for #CrystalPalace. Massive congratulations to #MacclesfieldFC. ⚽️
#FACup #Macclesfield #BBCONE

So happy to be watching this incredible FA Cup match, with the biggest ever upset now looking quite likely… 😮🤞

Really excited about tonight’s #TheTraitors and the big reveal of #Jade as the #SecretTraitor.
