Is there anyone on that Apocalypse program who's not a complete bellend?

Surely there has to be a criminal investigation into Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Just "lost" 215,000 maternity records, incidentally after a damning investigation into maternity care at the trust. Random coincidence I'm sure

Nottingham hospitals trust boss 'ashamed' over maternity data loss
The data was recovered but the the audit trail of who accessed individual records has not.

Ordering a sofa is so stupid. Nobody seems to take the old one away at the time of delivery, so you just have to store multiple sofas in your house for a bit. Thankfully most normal houses are large enough for such things. Why can't companies just be good at stuff?

Just seen an advert for esure, apparently they've chosen to stick with the "calm down dear" thing. It was trash when they had Michael winner doing it. It's trash now they have Lorraine Kelly (playing Lorraine Kelly, or as actual Lorraine Kelly? Only the tax department know) doing it

It's not really working. But fair play, at least C4 have tried a new comedy series

I love that google are selling the strong points of AI on their pixel saying that it can flash a different coloured light if someone specific contacts you. I mean, phones could do that 20 years ago. But, sure

There's something off about this series of Taskmaster. They seemed to promo it more than I remember for other series. And somehow it's just not landing. Can't put my finger on it

I'm so sick of hearing about the bloody royal family. Your kids are going to school? Ok, millions do. Leaving the country? Fine, have a lovely time. Need to make some money off the death of your sister? Ok, you do you But stop telling me about all of it all the bloody time

The advert on the radio for the next oasis tour is so funny. Couldn't sound more bored if they tried

The graphics for this Ultimate Championship are awful. The first place always looks like a table header

"the mileage has just ticked over to blah which is the exact number of the train that". Fuck off. It's all so dull. Do a train programme, that's what your actual passion is!

Screenshot of tweet from @InternetHippo:

New right wing thing is describing crimes as generically as possible to pretend like they're not crimes. Someone gets convicted of conspiracy and they start yelling "Wow so it's illegal to make plans with friends now"

Pay very careful attention to the difference between the press's reaction to this and the actions of groups like XR and JSO, which also disrupted traffic sometimes.

There's nothing natural about him. Feels like every sentence is being read from a script

I'm not an expert in anything, but doesn't "letting people out of prison early because the prisons are a bit full" imply that the original sentences were too harsh?

It got a bit better when they had vocalists on. But over an hour of some guy just going "what. What. Brap. Reading. What. Make some noise. What. What. Fucking Reading. Brap. What". Utter horse shit. I'm too old for this

I'm only 10 minutes in, but Chase & Status at Reading are pretty shit. No real stage presence, shout in to the mic so it's distorted because that's somehow better. Shout over each other. They seemed ok 15 years ago 🤷‍♂️

Watching celebrity MasterChef. Can't put my finger on it, but I really don't like grace dent. Something is off about her. She has horrible vibes somehow

I thought there was some unfairness on celebrity MasterChef by having a chef as a contestant. Apparently Jason Mohammed and Simon Rimmer are different people though 🤷‍♂️
