Really enjoyed my brief solo trip to London. Made great use of the BFI Library, saw Sting in The Last Ship play (and enjoyed it!), went to Fortnum and Mason for treats, paid tribute to some heroes at St Paul’s Church in Covent Garden and renewed my British Library member card. A lovely time away.

25, not bad. Some of them I've never seen them before in my life. MP Chain 🏛️ I recognised 2️⃣5️⃣ MPs in a row. How long is your chain? toys.jamesomalley.co.uk/mpchain/

I might go on the game. At least I'd get a fag and a lie in.

The BFI Library staff have been extremely helpful as I prepare for my trip there week after next. Was going to consult the microfiche BARB reports, and they sent me a little glimpse of one page, but I've realised they will be quite mammoth and I won't have time to look at them. Bound books it is.

This is a beautiful article from the son of Eileen Derbyshire. It's lovely to hear how happy she is, and how touched she was by the outpouring of love. www.dailymail.com/news/article...

Remembering an icon, and a legend. 40 years ago today, Pat Phoenix died peacefully after suffering from lung cancer. Pat was glamorous, fiery, brave, warm, full of charisma who had a heart of gold and felt real - a powerhouse. A true star. The original soap queen, and the best.

The hotel I think I'm going to stay in Covent Garden, haven't booked yet, is literally on the doorstep of St Paul's Church, the Actors Church. I must visit. Roll on October the 1st!

Having seen more episodes of Minnie from 1975, I think Margot Bryant had a mild stroke or severe anxiety which caused the memory loss between the October and November (she was off for a month). Margot seemed fine before the November, delivered her lines well, but afterwards she seemed different.

Fantastic night seeing Jane McDonald at Newcastle City Hall! She can certainly belt them out, and her chat on stage is so funny. Great show, wonderful to hear her voice. I've never seen so many middle aged women in my life in that audience!

Paid a visit to St Clements Church in Ordsall early yesterday morning. If you know your Corrie history, you’ll know the significance of the location. It’s where Archie Street stood until the very early 70s, the design inspiration for the Coronation Street houses in 1960.

Seriously thinking about bidding on some letters Betty Boothroyd wrote to Patricia Routledge on Wednesday. To own those would be camp on another level.

#OnThisDay 26 July 1979 DEATH ON THE STREET ITV broadcasts what's billed as "the first ever documentary about #CoronationStreet" in which Stephen Hancock examines viewers' reactions to the death of soap characters. It features #LynneCarol, #NoelDyson, Tony McHale and Bill Podmore.

Antony Cotton’s ‘acting’ is still atrocious. Been in it for 22 years and done nothing noteworthy. Ditto Kirk and Izzy, and many others. Useless characters. #corrie

Said it elsewhere before, but the first series of The Royle Family is pitch perfect. The depictions of normal life, chatter about people in the local area, cultural references, it's just a masterpiece. Series 1 and 2 are the best. Series 3 isn't as strong, dialogue repetition creeps in.
