Patsy Ferran deserves to be nine billion times more famous than she currently is.

I think a lot about what Carl Sagan said in one of his final interviews.

"WE'VE ARRANGED A society based on science and technology, in which nobody understands anything about science technology. And this combustible mixture of ignorance and power, sooner or later, is going to blow up in our faces. Who is running the science and technology in a democracy if the people don't know anything about it?"
"Science is more than a body of knowledge, it's a way of thinking. A way of skeptically interrogating the universe with a fine understanding of human fallibility. If we are not able to ask skeptical questions, to interrogate those who tell us that something is true, to be skeptical of those in authority, then we're up for grabs for the next charlatan, political or religious, who comes ambling along."

Anora was excellent aside from the fact they forgot that films need endings

Moana 2 is similar to the original Moana except for the fact that it's one of the worst films ever produced

Know a 7-12 year old? Do they need a Christmas present? Can they read? I can sort you out, don't panic. My latest book, DEXTER PROCTER THE 10-YEAR-OLD DOCTOR is available and (I think) very funny. Lots of links here: www.penguin.co.uk/books/458753... or head to your lovely local bookshop.

A copy of DEXTER PROCTER THE 10-YEAR-OLD DOCTOR on an absurdly Xmassy wooden table, with candy canes, presents and a Christmas tree.

Suspect Keir Starmer's decision not to prioritise reforms to political donations, either in his first King's Speech, or even now following the threat of Elon Musk bankrolling Farage, will be remembered as one of his worst

In what can only be described as a sick burn, the lady in the Co-op asked me for ID when I was buying wine earlier and when I went to get it out of my wallet she said "Only joking"

If Musk is seriously going to start funnelling money into British politics then it's incumbent on the Labour Party while they have an enormous majority to change the way British politics is funded despite the inevitable media backlash. We should copy the French model before we end up like America...

Saw Wicked for a second time and worked out the big twist at the end of the next film. Genius! Then realised it's also twist at the end of the musical I've seen twice.

Wicked is an exceptional movie but would likely be an extraordinary one if we didn't live in an age where every film has to be split into two and last 3 hours each.

Predict Wicked will win Oscars for Best Costume (sensational), Hair/Make-up (magnificent), Design (sumptuous) & Orig Music (obvs). Poss nom for VFX (monkeys!). Best Actress nom for Cynthia Erivo (WOW!) & if she's lucky/popular then a Best Supporting nom for Ariana (sure). Nada for the writing (meh).

My six favourite European Mr Men character names... 6. Mr Muddle in Spain = Don Confuso 5. Mr Topsy-Turvy in Germany = Herr Kuddelmuddel 4. Mr Bounce in France = Monsieur Bing 3. Mr Dizzy in Portugal = Senhor Bobo 2. Mr Greedy in Sweden = Gubben Glufs Glufs 1. Mr Bump in Norway = Herr Dumpidump

A cover of Herr Dumpidump by Roger Hargreaves that says "Herr Dumpidump by Roger Hargreaves" and with an illustration of Herr Dumpidump looking especially dumpidumpish (forgive me but I can't stop repeating the word dumpidump... DUMPIDUMP!)
