Just seen a post from someone saying that Winchester was designed for cars and, mate, Winchester was designed for medieval peasants taking their chickens for a walk.

Breaking news for @theguardian.com: disabled people can and do work and PIP supports them to do that.
The plans don’t relate to disability benefits, because they would only apply to people able to work.

I'm so very sad to hear of the death of Esther Ranzen who played an important role in reuniting me with Nicky Winton - the man who saved my life. It's so desperately sad that she couldn't choose assisted dying as was her wish.

Tonight's SF classic. Seen it before, remember it being fun. You don't get many film adaptations that are intended to be parodies of the source material.

All this talk of Robin Gibb reminds me of his ELO-styled single which goes through CANCELLED and out the other side. The unintelligibility of the lyrics is probably for the best. youtu.be/0P5LNKh5cLA?...

This is excellent, more people need to know that the hit singles are just one aspect of the Bee Gees' musical journey. And the wilderness years are often the most interesting part of an act's career.

It would've been fine as a recurring sketch in something like Harry Enfield's Television Programme but half an hour of the same gag is too much.

#EveryAlbumIOwn Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds. 2011. Top 3 tunes: AKA... What A Life!, AKA... Broken Arrow, AKA... Stop The Clocks You can skip: AKA... If I Had A Gun Rating: 8/10 Way better than the previous four Oasis albums. Dream On and The Death Of You And Me are fun Kinks pastiches.

If he's gonna watch that, he should also watch all the fan videos with fans playing the parts, making the costumes, writing the scripts etc. There is so much real creativity out there, born of an enthusiastic and inclusive fan community. We don't need artificial intelligence, we have genuine talent.

#EveryAlbumIOwn Ta-Dah. Scissor Sisters. 2006. Top 3 tunes: I Don't Feel Like Dancin', I Can't Decide, Intermission You can skip: The Other Side Rating: 8/10 Land of a Thousand Worlds is an obvious highlight (sounds like Mercury Rev!), though the album tails off a bit towards the end.
