New one up, discussing ‘Hope Again’, the difference between ‘Understandable’ and ‘Legitimate’ Concerns, and the definition of Englishness. Also, what funny noise will everything become reduced to? #StrongMessageHere #BBCSounds

Last week's #StrongMessageHere chuckles from @nataliehaynes.bsky.social give way to Stewart Lee's crackles - or should that be Krakles? But the high point is @aiannucci.bsky.social's genius chess game with AI, manoeuvring it to reveal its game and why it can't ever be trusted. Hope he publishes it.👇

Though we make shows for the fun and hell of it, I’m delighted to be included in this lovely list ( #ThickOfIt, #Veep) though it’s really our audiences that matter and not some list we shouldn’t take too seriously but #Barry should have been way way higher!

Binged all 8 episodes of this last night. Just fantastic, and utterly unique. If you've never seen it and like weird, surreal, absurd, occasionally melancholic comedy ( #melanchomedy maybe? ) it's an essential watch. #Comedy #ArmandoIannucci #SoGoodAtTelevision

25 years since this thing came out. I’m very fond of it, it’s possibly the most personal thing I’ve made and, if I’m allowed to be proud for a day, I’m rather proud of it. All 8 eps up on Channel 4. #TheArmandoIannucciShows #Ch4 #ABigEgg

Farage looks like a man who tried to nonchalantly jump over a low wall to take a shortcut, caught his leg on it and almost fell over, then tried to style it out while also looking accusingly at the wall, before walking off, trying to hide a limp.
