Curriculum should include Porridge, Blackadder and Fawlty Towers

The shoddy hacking off the glitter ball was offensive. Not level. Electrical tape on the sharp edges. It's a six from me.

Thanks for this. I'll add it to my watch list

I've started watching old comedies I should have watched but didn't like The Larry Sanders Show. I'll add this to the list

Proper belly laugh reading that. There are so many actual jokes in Alan Partridge they can get lost in the show

That's far to funny for this time of night. Late 90s on channel 5 it would have been him or Suggs

Film idea no. 543. Inspired by watching Strictly Come Dancing, a group of locals decide to advertise for a teacher to learn to dance and put on a show to raise funds and save their community centre. Think very British - The Full Monty etc

Who would have used that to force him out? I may be being daft but hopefully you can explain

Charity shop haul today is Β£1 for 3 DVDs. Zulu, The Untouchables and Pulp Fiction. The Untouchables (one of my all time favourite films) comes with a double sided poster too. Don't get one of those on streaming

@cameronyardejnr.bsky.social just as I was saying. Bring this nonsense back to fill 30 minutes midweek on telly.

I say this until the cows come home. Cheap parlour games after 7.30 need to come back like Give Us A Clue. House of Games each night at 6 on BBC2 is wasted. Whack it on at 7.30 weekly on a Tuesday on BBC 1. Show old Dr Who at 6 on BBC2 on Wednesday

La Voix is a hurricane of chaos on strictly when she's not dancing and I love it

I'm never sure with the 70s what was irony and what wasn't to be fair

BBC Sports coverage of the #Ashes rugby league verges on unwatchable at points and is unbelievably irritating. Stop cutting to shots of the crowd or coaches while the ball is in play #EngvAus

Today's film I watched so you don't have to is The 13th Warrior. A vague retelling of Beowulf meaning a dozen Norse fighters and the titular hero, an Arab, go to a village and fight off hordes of cannibals who think they are bears. Nothing great but if you are in to this type of film it's fun

When they are bad, like really bad, it can be a hard watch. Still must not miss it though.

PS 2 bags of quavers deep in to it
