I'm not even kidding but my favourite mug was a Cafe Du Monde one and I've had two of them break already. I suppose I mean my favourite two mugs?

Don't you mean the... Topeka of your show? Actually wait now I see that you don't, you wrote a different but similar word

They did this so you would accept the Skittle Blondies. They're shifting the ...Overtongue window

There's a clear solution here that will fulfil two issues: put the Muppets in Star Wars. Not playing established characters, just as themselves. Permanently.

My watch's battery has run out. I've continued wearing it but I kept instinctively looking at it thinking it was the right time, so I put a sticker over the face. What this means is every couple of minutes I unintentionally look at a tiny picture of the Hulk and say 'damnit!'

Just use my technique of writing emails that are uniformly disjointed and awkward in a way that AI would reject for being 'really unendearing'

They're supposed to write them on yellow post-its and leave them a few metres from the door. Do they know nothing about environmental storytelling?

The great Moore integration continues apace. I can't wait to see Christine Gathercole from Big Numbers team up with the Ninja Turtles

My most controversial Dr Who opinion is probably that the show needs to be more like Gravity Falls or the Owl House. The way these shows balance humour with plot, setting, character and charming weirdness is exactly what it needs.

We went to see it together didn't we? 90% of it went over my head, bless. I appreciated it more on subsequent viewings

It seemed to be totally operational when we went at the end of August, maybe we just caught one of the open days. Anyway they should strip it completely and burn it all in a big pile. Turn it back to Cloudcuckooland.

(My podcast where we put the Thing into other films is called 'Just The Thing' and is, in my opinion, an adequate source of Thing Puns)

Occasionally a film director will slowly turn the camera upside down in a way that comes across as annoyingly flashy but maybe I should have stood on my head when this happens. I agree that comics are way ahead in the orientation game.

I really tried to think of this but got stuck on Bugs Bunny singing 'sittin' in the bathtub!' A literal rabbit hole.

I always assumed the 'loft' in Ravenloft referred to attics. The natural opposite of a dungeon. And I still think that.

An unexpected Robin Hood! Not your father’s Robin Hood. A different Robin Hood to differentiate from all the rest! Sir. The last traditional Robin Hood starred a cartoon fox and was released during the Nixon administration. Guy in green WOULD be different.

Is that what that line was?? I suppose I always assumed it was something like 'the hero has fought'... rather than him giving notes on the other Defender's performance

I saw Kim Newman being interviewed and someone said he must surely be an expert on Sherlock Holmes after writing his Moriarty book, and he said he was, for a month, and then he had to clear space in his head for the next thing. That's been my experience...

Ferris Bueller's Day Off, but it's about that one guy from Inglorious Basterds, and the day he misses is when they teach them how Germans count with their fingers
