Make a war film rubbish. The Bridge on the River Wye. Full Metal Gilet. Reach for the Sky Remote.

Very much a fan of the new logo for the 2032 Olympics... 👌

Nadim Zahawi on the late Jeffrey Archer: "His gift for storytelling was matched by his wit, warmth and boundless energy." I remember his libel lawyer saying much the same thing.

I can't remember now, but did you mention during the podcast that Virginia Maskell appeared with Sellers in Only Two Can Play? Just heard her name come up during the Channel 4 show 'Best Sellers'...

Blimey, I've designed some half-decent stuff in my time...

Man City should have got Bernard Tapie while they had the chance.

I created this advert three years ago, almost to the day.

Who cares? It's Chelsea we're talking about. Make an exception.

I can highly recommend both of the 'De Gaulle' films. Great acting, particularly on the part of Simon Abkarian as the French leader.

Thanks Tyler. I'll drop you a line shortly...

@goonpod.bsky.social Hi Tyler! I’m a regular listener to Goon Pod and really enjoy it. I’ve done some research for a possible episode idea about The Goons' appearances on TV commercials, and have put together some notes about it. Is there an email address I could use to send it to you privately?

I hope you find time to squeeze in a Blackburn/O'Sullivan reference.

Chris Oakley @chrisdoakley.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

I am frankly stunned by this recent development.

Chris Oakley @chrisdoakley.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

Also, it was interesting hearing Jan's response to Terry's adventures in AdLand. It mirrored my own, which I think appeared on an old episode of the pod.

@sofpodcast.com Jarrod Bowen to Palace? I nearly drove my car off the road when I heard that...

18 August 2001 The new FA Premier League season got under way. For the first time, ITV was presenting the highlights and had their own results service programme. Controversially, the highlights were shown at 7pm on Saturday night. This was a flop and they soon moved it to late night.

Not a bad shirt. Interesting, placing the Adidas logo, Club badge and sponsor logo centrally, but I guess why not? 👍 from me...

Not sure whether to be underwhelmed or not.

I've had a look at your pinned post. Don't think I've got much at all, I'm afraid... Sorry!

I see you're a collector of TV nostalgia. Very much a subject I love! Been doing it long?

Chris Oakley @chrisdoakley.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

Ooh, not sure. Could be, but I'm inclined to say no. Not that I know much...

It was with some delight that I realised, all too late in life, that Bill Oddie sang the jingle 'What has a hazelnut in every bite?' for the Topic ads in the 1970s. Wonderful stuff. #rip

@chartmusictotp.bsky.social I've just realised what a bad month it's been for survivors of Brown Sauce's 'I Wanna Be A Winner.' First we lost Penelope Keith, now Kevin Keegan. By my reckoning, there's only Clare Francis, Willie Carson and Geoff Boycott left now...

It's important to leave behind some memories. #RIP #kevinkeegan

Never mind, Argentina. You've got four years now to relearn the art of having a shot on target. #worldcup

Chris Oakley @chrisdoakley.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

And by 'World Cup Final', I also mean 'World Cup'.

Chris Oakley @chrisdoakley.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

I'd quite like this World Cup Final to be over now. It's serving no-one any purpose anymore. #worldcup

Chris Oakley @chrisdoakley.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

Spain have certainly mastered the art of shooting straight at the keeper in this match. #worldcup

Chris Oakley @chrisdoakley.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

Oh dear. This is the bit where Argentina start playing football. #worldcup

Chris Oakley @chrisdoakley.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

Is there anything more pointless in modern football than someone holding up a board indicating substitutions? In this final, there are video screens literally everywhere. #worldcup

If this game goes on like this for a further ten minutes I think they should abandon it and, on the strength of last night's game, award the World Cup to England.

Just walked back in the room to see what's going on in the Half Time Show. #worldcup

The Half Time Show can go hang. I'm going to spend the time feeding my chickens and making a cup of coffee. #worldcup #priorities

Chris Oakley @chrisdoakley.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

I'm so glad this World Cup has given us the chance to see Hollywood actors so often. It gives the players something to aspire to when they're rolling around on the pitch pretending to be fouled. #worldcup

I'm going to be strangely disorientated when, from tomorrow, I won't get to see Infantino's smug face nine minutes after I switch my TV on. #worldcup

Spainsh Brass. It's very much what Herb Alpert would have wanted.

Gotta say how nice it is to see a World Cup Final played in sunshine. Doesn't happen too often. #worldcup

Chris Oakley @chrisdoakley.bsky.social · 18/07/2026

A bit tiring, hearing so many 'experts' saying "Why couldn't England do that against Argentina?", as if the third-placed match is a semi-final.
