Just walked down Market Street - the sweet, sweet smell of Botulised fast food is all around. Now I’m in The Armdale. I wouldn’t wish this on Papa Doc Duvalier.

We are - as you may know - planning to do an ALL-NEW Lost Films of Hollywood calendar for 2027 if we get enough interest. There’s a button on lostfilmsbook.store that you can hit to get notified if we get enough interest. I think we need to get about 100 people on there so if you want it to happen…

Lost films of Hollywood 2027 calendar spoiler free image listing some of the movies we are planning to feature if there’s enough interest.. The Odyssey, Marty Supreme, Basic Instinct, The Exorcist, Speed, The Breakfast Club, Parasite, The Cars That Ate Paris, Dumbo…

I’m Gail, a one woman (and a feline assistant) business, based in Manchester. I create prints, homewares, T-shirts & cards inspired by midcentury design, music and architecture. Have a look gailmyerscough.co.uk

A grid of twelve illustrations featuring music designs, architecture designs, books, retro abstract designs and swimmers. Bold and colourful.

Quiet Friday night pint (managed one) ended up with five hours in the Emergency Eye Department. Apparently I have a PVD. The long suffering @gailmyerscough.co.uk was sat with me listening to the honking and moaning of some arseholes about the NHS. They don’t know which side their bread’s buttered.

Something, something, Trump and his cabinet.

That celeb version of the TV show that I’ve never seen before. It looks a bit toot.

It’s really weird the way all these shiny Dubai-alike skyscrapers began appearing at the same time Man City managed to afford 200 billion quid for a third choice left-back.

Matt Owen @mjowen174.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Looking forward to the Adam Curtis film about the Man City scandal.

Yeah, I think the best way to avoid botched executions is to stop executing people.

Matt Owen @mjowen174.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Weird, that.

Thinking of becoming one of those tech lads who wake up three days before they go to bed, eat piss snow for breakfast and run 31 miles backwards in the gym before consuming a tea comprising 3 fart & vinegar Ryvitas.

I’ve reviewed new ITV maverick pathologist drama “Winter”.

theguardian.com

Winter review – Richard Armitage’s new cop drama is as ferociously watchable as it is daft

Sometimes you want prestige drama that roils with nuance and complexity. And sometimes you want Armitage shouting in a cagoule

Not sure about this ‘Patton’ reboot.

Interesting that quite a few people asking me to write speeches bring up AI, and the fact it’s dire. One-nil.

Are the BBC still naming rooms after famousers? If so, we need one for Sir Prancelot, Keith Allen or maybe Freddie Laker.

I wonder what Ron Decline’s up to these days?

I know the poor sod died 56 years ago in Bath (the place) but I think we should make a bit more noise about Eddie Cochran.

Social media ought to be cats, clips from the John Player League and that Scotchman saying “Oh fuck off!” on that TV show.

Matt Owen @mjowen174.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

ALCS are ace. Thank you. Now, broadcasters and production companies how about we bin buy-out contracts for writers.

I’ve just read “Obviously the controller on BBC radio 2 has never heard of the saying ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t try and fix it’”. I’ve never heard that saying, either.

Triple Lock? Triple Cock, more like.

Andy Burnham should get rid of the Triple Lock because I’m not sure what it is.

There’s an estate agent in Chorlton called ‘Property Genius’. Not wanting to do them down or anything, but…

‘Revisiting People Just Do Nothing’ and re-discovering it’s still bleeding hilarious.

One of the highlights of ‘Capricorn One’ is Telly Savalas’ character continually referring to everyone as a “Pervert”.

2000+ Americans have bought this book on import from the UK. Many of them have told me they love it. Meanwhile, the UK publishing industry: "I am sorry. We can't sell this book to an American audience. They will find it too British." FREE worldwide delivery here: blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/pro...

The very welcome ALCS payments aren’t “free money”. It’s something you’ve worked for. That is all.
