It wasn't just the mention of CCHQ which was inaccurate in that election episode of #Rivals s2. @mattchorley.bsky.social has excellent political nerdery on the many many ways it was wrong: mattchorley.substack.com/p/what-rival...

This week's episode of War Movie Theatre is our most popular yet. Join me and Matt Chorley as we discuss why Dad's Army has lasted, why Captain Mainwaring really is a hero, and why Arthur Lowe had a trousers clause in his contract. pod.fo/e/37e11d

My surname is a source of great pride for me. I know it can be a mouthful, and it isn't the easiest to spell. I was even advised by some senior politicians to shorten it. However as I told @mattchorley.bsky.social earlier - that was simply never an option. #HolocaustMemorialDay
