OK hear me out. A "human made" badge that can only be gained by completing half an hour of work under exam conditions to demonstrate you are capable of this work without the help of AI. Invigilated by four volunteer peers. And the badge is a number that you look up on a website to prove it's legit.

I do not believe that A) a 50 mins AI ep of Doctor Who could be generated containing anything approaching a story and B) anyone would sit through it, let along describe it as 'pretty good', so I'd love to know what the real story is here.

Apropos of nothing, 'omoba' is a non-gendered Yoruba word for the child of a monarch. Literally, "child of the monarch" Omo = child (non-gendered) Ba = short for 'oba', which means 'king'

Mass Lobby for Trans Equality - 9th September 2026

Let’s focus on the real threats, which we see around us, every day, online and offline. Let trans+ people live their lives safely, peacefully and joyfully. We have work to do elsewhere
"A change of narrative because trans women are not a threat to cis women. In turn that should allow trans people to live their lives without fear, something every person deserves."

Regrettably, Lakitus in rows one and two were jailed for a year for the coordinated upskirting of Princess Peach. Those in rows three through five successfully argued they were unaware of the plan.

Listen team, if you're finding your creative endeavours hard going today, do what the rest of us do: slouch around feeling sorry for yourself and eating hula hoops for a few hours. Don't try to convince yourself there's an easier way. If you didn't write it, it isn't art.

I expect to see this brutal warning from the UN not to be featured on a single national or Scottish front page or website. British media will determinedly ignore it because creating this hate campaign and its consequences has been part of their joint ideological project.
