They’re doing the usual thing: sending in the people who were up for murder last into breakfast. Which should tell the other players they’re not traitors! #TheTraitors #TraitorsUK

Total banger from Sonique. Everyone was talking about this tune in anticipation of its release. #TOTP

He's right. It is Friday at 7.30. How did he know that 26 years in advance? #TOTP

Ah, no. That's a shame. I lost a load of vinyl when I moved house and there wasn't room for it in the van!

I'm a bit annoyed I spoiled it by slapping on a sticker (which I put on all my CDs to categorise them) #TOTP

I don’t know that Madasun tune but I love Don’t You Worry (also 2000). I won the CD **SIGNED BY THE GIRLS IN SILVER INK. WHOOP** in a radio competition on Mercia FM in Coventry. As you do. #TOTP

Could never understand the appeal of this Madison Avenue one. Just a bit bland. Voice Of The Beehive’s Don’t Call Me Baby is the only one for me. #TOTP

40 years ago today. Saturday night ITV. It's Blindd-d-Date with Miss Cilla Blaaaaaack. And a fab new LWT production ident to boot.

Joe Lycett is a great talent but that Lycett Arms show last night was piss-poor. It needs more structure and better editorial management. There’s only so much whooping and arsing about you can do before the cracks start to show.

Sad to see Richard O’Sullivan has died. Me & My Girl was a childhood favourite (loved the theme tune). When I was about seven I saw an ad for it on stage in London and begged my parents to go and see it. Then they told me it was a musical and not related to the sitcom. Gutted.

Update: 9 To 5 has today entered the UK singles chart at no 12. A top 40 hit at last! #DollyParton

Lee Graham @leepg.bsky.social · 25/08/2026
I think that newsreader just said "Dolly Parton’s biggest hits" but it could have been something else.

Lee Graham @leepg.bsky.social · 25/08/2026
There was no one quite like Dolly Parton. What an icon. Country has never been my thing but I always had time for Dolly and her music. Did you know that 9 To 5 was never a top 40 hit in the UK (it peaked at no 47 in 1981)? I suspect that might change later this week…

A war started by Farage’s pal Trump – and another by Russia, whose bribes led to a 10-year prison stretch for Reform’s leader in Wales, are costing Brits a fortune. Plus the UK economy is 7% smaller because of Farage’s Brexit. But the problem is migrants and people on benefits.

I’ve just seen that William Orbit has died at 69. What a loss. His distinctive, haunting production style defined the sound of global pop at the turn of the millennium. I couldn’t get enough of it. This is perhaps his finest work: www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVNd...

The voices of Bananaman and Zippy from Rainbow have both died today. My Gen X heart is broken. At least Tony Hart is still with us. #BillOddie #RonnieLeDrew

Suspect in Berlin Pride terror attack shot and killed - German broadcaster RBB via Reuters

Berlin is a wonderful city. I loved it there. Very saddened by this car incident tonight. And if it turns out to be an attack on LGBTQ+ people, all it’s done is highlight the importance of Pride events in the first place.

Out and about near Kenwood House today. Never seen Hampstead Heath look so brown… How many London landmarks can you spot behind me?

I don’t drive but I often cycle up to Muswell Hill. Living in this area, I’m used to hills but find Muswell Hill itself (the road) impossible. Way too steep. #TOTP
