I’m beyond excited (and slightly terrified) to announce that my one-man show, SQUID – A Victim Impact Statement, will premiere at the Arcola Theatre, London, 11–14 November. For 30 years, I documented a story I couldn’t remember. SQUID is what happened when I finally did.

Burnham will be celebrated for a week or two. By the Left. The Right will just tear him to pieces, make up stories, keep quiet about the good things, until his approval rating implodes too. He can stop that by regulating disinformation. Or he can *not* and wait for the same forces to devour him.

If Starmer does resign tomorrow which seems likely given the number of sources now calling for it (not least his Foreign Secretary) It’s worth remembering that the same fate will befall any prime minister until they get to grips with rabid Press and Social Media.

Just done this in one sitting and I’m in floods. It’s about friendship, time passing, love and sorrow. And it’s utterly beautiful. Thanks @quantick.bsky.social ♥️

The Wicker Man was released this week in December 1973. Fifty years after the fictional date of the clifftop singalong sacrifice, we went to be the village pub band for a re-enactment, and I wrote this piece to try and capture a flavour of that moment. open.substack.com/pub/joelmorr...

I can recommend listening to all four episodes of this in one hit, maybe minus the two hour cycle ride. Great performances throughout, French, Saunders, Front, McGowan and Tennant all clearly enjoying giving mouth to @quantick.bsky.social ‘Adrian Chiles Toby Jug’ will abide 👏👏👏
