Applemask @applemask.bsky.social · 21/10/2023It now seems hilarious that the tournament was promoted (by ITV at least) as being impossible to call. It was anyone's World Cup! Welp, turns out it's going to be won by the same team that won it last time, or the time before that, or the time before that, or the time before that. #RWC2023 #RWC 000
Applemask @applemask.bsky.social · 21/10/2023For some people it is, and that's perfectly fine, as long as those people don't make it their business to tell us all about it unsolicited, especially if they act like they're taking some kind of interesting and provocative stance 000
Applemask @applemask.bsky.social · 21/10/2023Unless you're from one of the two countries it's impossible to care about the final, and it makes it feel like a waste of time caring about the whole tournament. #RWC2023 #RWC #ENGRSA 400
Applemask @applemask.bsky.social · 21/10/2023A month of often nail-biting rugby ends with the two teams who've won it more than anyone else, including all of the last five tournaments, essentially reeling around and falling on the final. #RWC2023 #RWC #ENGRSA 000
Applemask @applemask.bsky.social · 21/10/2023And so was the whole tournament. Some of the best rugby I've ever seen only to end up with the absolute least interesting possible final. #RWC2023 #RWC #ENGRSA 000

Applemask @applemask.bsky.social · 19/10/2023CF: when some baffled castmembers from Sons and Daughters were interviewed by TV-am in 1988, because it was the strike and they had literally no material, and the poor sods had to desperately try and remember details from storylines they worked on 2 years earlier and weren't interesting at the time 000
Applemask @applemask.bsky.social · 19/10/2023This is my landline as well, by the way. I can just about log on with the mobile network (mainly because it's not BT's anymore) but it's not exactly stable, I'm retyping the password every half hour or so 000

I am thankful to the person who recorded that closedown in 1987, the person who uploaded it & Dave for posting it! 1102
