@taskmasterpepod.bsky.social Flying backwards? In strong winds, light aircraft can be going backwards. I remember landing *almost* backwards - the airspeed was more or less the same as the wind speed and I was hovering over the runway. Worrying as if the wind drops, the plane drops out of the sky.

@jackbern.bsky.social Apart from the huge news that Taskmaster Australia now gives negative scores, Rose Matafayo is on Taskmaster NZ; first multinational player?

Slime Moulds (Myxomycetes) - Barry Webb Images
I discovered my first Slime Mould in October 2019. Neither fungi nor plant, they are Myxomycetes. These organisms go through different stages. At one stage in their life cycle they are single cell am...

@jackbern.bsky.social big news from Taskmaster Australia! Disqualified contestants get -1 points. If this had happened to Mae Martin, what would be the result??

@jackbern.bsky.social Has anyone looked at fantasy line-ups - anyone from history? Five I've thought of; Stan Laurel, Eric Morecambe, Hattie Jaques, Jimmy Nervo (of the Crazy Gang), Jimmy Tarbuck.

@andrewhunterm.bsky.social There's what feels like a slightly odd fact; Zener diodes and Zener cards are both well known in their fields (electronics and psychology) but they were invented by different Zeners.

@jackbern.bsky.social It's just struck me that Greg's giant ball game is quite like the ball on a string exercise he did with his students - could the production team be that quick? (nearly said "on the ball").

@richardosman1.bsky.social I'd offer the Beatles as having the greatest golden streak 1963-1970. 17 number 1 singles, 11 number 1 albums and they won an Oscar!

@richardosman1.bsky.social I have two questions for the Entertainment podcast! For The Unbelievable Truth; who writes the contestants' essays? Secondly, will the BBC continue to show the Horrible History parodies of Masterchef?

Ages are often named after monarchs - Victorian, Georgian, Edwardian. When the Queen was on the throne, it was the "New Elizabethan era" - what's the term now we have King Charles?

@bazzacollins.bsky.social I've just read your column about the big thing in cars is supporting Android Auto. You might be interested that when I rented a Merc A class, the AA wasn't working. I asked at a dealership and they charge £500 to turn it on.

Italy’s Mount Etna, Europe’s largest active volcano, spews plumes of ash
Officials say there’s no immediate danger after volcano generates eruptive cloud and pyroclastic flow A huge plume of ash, gas and rock has spewed forth from Italy’s Mount Etna, Europe’s largest active volcano, but authorities said there was no current danger to the population. Images showed a massive grey cloud billowing from the volcano on the island of Sicily, beginning about 11:24 am local time on Monday, according to the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV).

@richardosman1.bsky.social The story about the married couple reminded me of this; a Greek lady was asked who made the decisions. She said her husband decided the important things: should Greece be in Nato? Or in the EU? She decided unimportant things; how the family was fed and clothed.

@alexhorne.bsky.social in the cinema task, I wondered how the total chairs could be 333 - there must be an even number of "regular" chairs as they're arranged in a rectangle, then 5 little chairs on the stage and, of course, the one the contestant was sitting in. So I think the total should be 334.

@jackbern.bsky.social possible blooper in TM episode 10. Alex said there were 333 seats in the cinema, but I think that doesn't count the contestant's chair! It should be 334.
