Second series of us larking about starting tonight at 7. (Then you can turn over and watch Traitors, obviously)

A message to the people in #70Up: we have grown up together, and I’ve always watched with fascination, but the current series fills me with such unspeakable joy and grief at the same time. Thank you. A true epic. I salute you x

Shocking news about Paddington. Always thought he was a bit shifty.

Frank Beard from ZZ Top has died. Is this an urban myth, or was he the only member of ZZ Top without a beard?

A young peregrine falcon is having its lunch on what’s left of my lawn. Strange days indeed.

The end of the world is seemingly very good for tomatoes. This is the largest one I've ever grown.

More larking about is on the way! We've already got another 3 episodes in the bag, and a further 3 will be filmed in the autumn. As per the picture Sam does a lot of pointing and I do a lot of soaking it in.

Bill Oddie, what a lovely bloke. He wrote us a letter when we started making The Young Ones, wishing us the very best, and warning us against interference from higher up. He didn’t know anyone in the cast personally. It just came out of the blue. Lovely thing to do.

Can I humbly suggest a quick orange wedge and getting on with the game?

The trailer they keep playing with Joseph Fiennes as Gareth Southgate - don't you think there's something of Capt Haddock about him? (I mean that in a positive way)

Whoever bought that podium must be very pleased at the use it’s getting. Do they keep it just inside the front door? ‘Back under the stairs?’ ‘No, it’ll be out again any minute.’

National anthems all sound meaninglessly the same because they all use the same instruments. Brazil should use a berimbau, America a banjo, Switzerland a cuckoo clock.

Birdwatchers - Just seen a flock of seagulls (not the band) seemingly caught in a thermal above Dartmoor - is this a thing? I'd say there were around 100 of them.

If I was in charge of such things, I would put a compilation of the national juries giving their points on Eurovision in any attempted communication with other galaxies. Just to give them a heads up. Then they can decide.

Easter Sunday always reminds me of the gift shop at a cathedral near Palermo, when the woman in front of me said: 'Oh, and a man on a stick, please.'

I always thought that if nuclear armageddon came a spaceman would land on earth many centuries later to find the snooker was still on the telly.

Planted lots of my veg seedlings out earlier this week, when it was warm and sunny, but now the long range forecast is saying we’ll get frosts again. Puts the prospects of world recession into perspective. I know just how China feels.

I know there’s a lot going on, and it’s all a bit worrying, but the most important thing as far as I see it is this: we should ban drums at football matches. There, I’ve said it. Pile on if you must, but you know I’m right.

Thinking about how Bono (the Mercedes engineer) used to say 'It's Hammer Time' to Hamilton. Will he now say 'It's Aunty Time' to Antonelli?

I've written a play about 4 actors from a production of Waiting For Godot, who are waiting for the producer to appear, on the day the theatres closed 5 years ago. On tomorrow at 2.15, then afterwards on BBC Sounds. No pressure...

I need to know what this is called in other parts of the country. I live in Devon where it's called a 'Devon shovel' - is it called that elsewhere?

When they say 'And now the tea-time news with Clive Myrie' I expect news about what we might be having for tea - not all this political nonsense.

Some days I look at what I'm writing and think 'bloody good actually', and other days (like today) I think 'absolute shite'. It's an odd existence.

My date of birth is closer to the birth of Stan Laurel than it is to today. Which is some comfort.
