Nine years today our series of Taskmaster began airing on TV (I believe). To mark the occasion, I have begun something on Instagram which Taskmaster fans have been requesting for ever so long.

Make your favorite film sound as boring as possible without giving away the title: Academics leave university and start a business in New York. After a shaky start the business thrives, culminating in a roof top party.

Exactly. Wanna do something about harmful social media? Change the law so the platform's owners are classed as publishers, and become responsible for harmful / unlawful / slanderous/ offensive content. Same standards you'd apply to any print publisher. And enforce it with hefty fines.

The 60-40% split in voters between Left and Right has existed in the UK since the end of WW2. PR would make it almost impossible for the UK to have a Right Wing Goverment, and many of the most successful countries in Europe use PR.

Had a lovely time at Sara Pascoe tonight, laughed so much. Also reaffirmed my life choices on no kids. Don't get me wrong, I love kids. But I love tigers and I don't want one of them running about my livingroom either. . . #SaraPascoe #IAmAStrangeGloop #Edinburgh #standup #comedy

Scottish Opera offers hugely discounted tickets to people under the age of 26. In fact most of the theatres here do, usually for around £10. Which means you could see a whole live show for less than the cost of a ticket to one of Timothee Chalamet’s films. Just saying.

I used to think of myself as a very good judge of character until I was recently reminded of a meeting I had with Peter Mandelson in 1989, after which I turned to a colleague and said "What a nice man."

Funny! #MikeWozniak #MikeWozniakEdinburgh #MikeWozniakTheBench @lyceumedinburgh.bsky.social @mikewozniak.bsky.social
Me at Lyceum Edinburgh in front of Mike Wozniak's stage backdrop. Stage is lit green. Sign black with white writing that says his name and The Bench. It's up lit with beige lights. Sounds weird but looks nice.
