The 17 and 19 results are also very tight (both sub 2k majorities) - the leadership and then the general 2019 mess seem to have counteracted the personal/campaigning vote for half a decadeish

Just trying to work out where it all went wrong…

UK politics: Trump’s Nato claims ‘insulting and frankly appalling’, says Starmer –as it happened President’s assertion that Nato troops were not on the front line in Afghanistan has sparked widespread anger

Given the reports are that the whole police force structure is getting torn up on Monday, it may well be moot.

It has an interesting implication given only a 20 year age difference…

Not WILTY although Wilf has (maybe others but only one has a wiki the rest have the traitors cast page making it hard to pick out). Her IMDB (which obviously is spoilers so I’ve not linked) has her having been in 2 episodes of EastEnders in 2023 and Love Island: the Mobile Drama in 2021.

I’m not certain on Amanda specifically, but the key point in that banishment is that off camera, some of the cast were doing Claudia impressions, and Alyssa did her going ‘hello Traitors!’ Because they didn’t have footage of the original, they didn’t include any discussion of the slip in the edit

Also,climate collapse…

The ‘I’ve been doing your job’ introduction set it off all wrong.

Stephen :

I’d forgotten this cast haven’t seen these chests - it first came up in the celeb series…

Except you didn’t see you were on fire Jade, cos the shield fire is clearly added in post #theTraitors

It may be that Reece forgot (obviously bad, but understandable with the pressure) but he might be trying to be careful - if he goes hard and gets one of them, he almost certainly gets killed that night. As a faithful, surviving with knowledge for a little while at least is useful.

Going to break the journey now, will probably be back at the weekend.

Shot taken from a bridge across the line. A 4 platform station (central island abandoned, two side lines still operational) stretches out, a covered bridge at the far end. Power lines stretch at eye level, with a car park to the right, a tree lined bank on the other.

The same station, from an offset angle. A cross country Viyager train slide along the rightmost track, with only its outbound side headlight lit

King’s Norton station. Soon to become exchange station, with the Camp Hill line to reopen later this year.

A parking alley between two modern houses, at the base of the slightly descending pathway, the raised bed of a rail line passes across the shot.

Now into a more urban stretch of the journey, the line never that far away

Through further bushes, water flows through a stone and concrete structure, topped by railings. Two buttresses head towards the camera. Atop the arrangement, the rail line crosses over on an embankment

Approaching Northfield and the Rea is starting to deserve the name of a river. here there is a comparatively impressive bit of engineering to allow it to pass under the line

A concrete path heads forward, with grass verges either side. On the right are a mixture of bare and evergreen bushes and trees

A stream loops around a sandbank, framed in half bare brushes. A white semi-detached house is in the far background, with the railway line somewhere in between.

Our first stage is a quiet path alongside the River Rea, with the line recessed away in the woods

A pedestrian crossing leads to the building of Longbridge station, a squat boxy structure, with an architectural feature on top, a flat roof that ticks up to the left. The station features the classic British Rail double arrow in red, above the station name in silver.

New Year’s walk, planning for a big one - I’m going to walk the southern part of Cross city line. If all goes well, should make it from Longbridge to New Street

The bit after this is directly from the source story. That was in copyright used in license. The studio screwed up getting all the right copyrights/extensions, so it was possible show up to here without/limited paying, but the remainder needed to pay the original author, so 70s TV stopped here…

Yep, we did well in the 2019 locals, which had not been delayed to coincide with the 2019 Europeans, as those weren’t supposed to be happening until it was too late. Therefore we were the obvious pro EU choice, when it might have been ChUK, or worse both us and ChUK fighting it out.

And this decade’s Wallace & Gromit, a real feasting without thinking about next time sort of deal.

Maybe, although I feel the divergence point is likely a lot earlier- perhaps a crusade against the Ottomans in the 1500s carving out a second Kingdom of Heaven - also explains the Gregorian date for Christmas. Belgravia then is some form of successor to the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth?

Presumably in the world Queen Victoria married an Aldovaian, who brought their traditions over, as opposed to Albert bringing German ones?

Oh, it’s that Chris Parry? That’s a shame, I enjoyed their History Undone series.

Both reportedly are - Trump over newsnight, Skinner over a vote fix that apparently a Beeb exec emailed him over…

my heart's still breaking over Carlos thinking he was benched last year because he's not a good person

Carlos, James Jordan had a partner every single year, I don't how much more clearly I can state it #SCD
