Time for the Celeb MasterChef Final. I’d be happy with any of the 3 winning. Been a great series. #MasterChefUK

Just been to watch the Hot Ice show in Blackpool and can’t believe I’ve never been before. That is a camp, joyful, explosive two hours of sequins and skating. So good, we’ve booked to go again on Thursday. #Blackpool #HotIce

Dolly Parton currently occupies the top 6 positions on the U.K. iTunes Chart and has a further 41 songs in the top 200. Just incredible.

What an absolute master at his craft. From Jurassic Park to A Cry in the Dark. Sam has performed in some of my all time favourite films. I’ve loved watching Sam’s work. How very sad.

Building back after my #Costochondritis diagnosis wasn’t easy. 3 months out the gym, then 3 months of light weights, I felt I was undoing all the hard work over the last 4 years. But my strength is back, pain is less frequent & I’m not needing as many recovery days. Happy days!

I’m sure my #puregym don’t want me to take mirror selfies as they wash them but don’t polish them! Unless it’s a new soft focus gym filter. 🤔

I can imagine the arena chanting Eins, Zwei, Drei and I’m not mad about it! Could work exceptionally well with the right staging. I’m excited. #Eurovision 🇬🇧

Donald Trump has said the U.K. has been unhelpful during the Iran strikes. We have people in the U.K. kicking off that Kier Starmer has taken us into an illegal war. And that’s the problem with algorithms. You don’t get a balanced view. You get what’s tailored for you.

First full push day at the gym since September last year. The road to recovery is slow but the buzz I’m getting from slowly building back up is there and it feels good. #Costochondritis
