Reincarnation! The producer set me off on it. She had one of those sessions where you lie back and turn into Florence Nightingale.

I would have summoned Ross, then murder him just to make all the other faithfuls more paranoid. Then recruit James as a traitor - who I think was selling himself short earlier! #thetraitors

I see ITV Quiz are being sponsored by Simplicity Cremations. Presumably that’s what you’ll turn into when you watch the channel 24/7 🤷🏻‍♂️

When in Gothenburg… visit the Scandinavium and a number of #Eurovision 1985 postcard locations. And sing that instrumental music around the city while you do.

This time next week I’ll be preparing to go to Göteborg! Any recommendations for things to visit and do, and places to eat? Are there museum exhibitions about their hosting Eurovision in 1985? 😂

All I see on Facebook and X these days is adverts from R*form councillors, accounts licking Apple’s arse, and an advert to join an illegal migration march in Leeds. Just pure evil sh*t.

Whoever made this poll can’t write survey questions properly. There’s too much going on in this question. I would have set this up as a Likert type scale with a series of statements to rate. Although no doubt there are limitations in question design in the software.

A series of bad results for the UK in Eurovision has now got MPs asking questions of the BBC about what’s going on. No doubt someone will ask about ‘value for money’ but will there be questions of a certain country’s participation amongst this?

R*form UK just had a ‘party political broadcast’ which they used as a tribute to Ann Widdecombe. More like using her death for political gain more like.

Witness for the Prosecution tonight at County Hall. Was fun to be in a courtroom theatre (which is probably an oxymoron!). Performances were a bit corny at times, but not a patch on Marlene Dietrich and Charles Loughton.
