Molly James @msmollyjames.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I failed mine about as badly as a person can fail a driving test back in June. I’m pretty good in lessons but to say that I panic under test conditions would be an understatement. Booked in again for December. Onwards and upwards! 010

Molly James @msmollyjames.bsky.social · 20/03/2026I bloody loved the A-Team as a kid but I was a bit older and although I can’t remember it that well, I suspect I can’t show the live action series to a three year old. 110
Molly James @msmollyjames.bsky.social · 20/03/2026Why not?! If ever a show was perfect for an 80s animated series. 100
Molly James @msmollyjames.bsky.social · 20/03/2026My son saw a Mr T fridge magnet at my mum’s house (long story) and is now fascinated by him and wants to watch him on TV. Fine, I thought, I’ll track down the A-Team animated series for him to watch. But apparently I have invented the A-Team animated series in my head and there never was one?! 110
Molly James @msmollyjames.bsky.social · 19/03/2026I think we have a winner. The pattern of light and shadow on the globe matches perfectly, and can spot the nose on the shape inside. 020
Molly James @msmollyjames.bsky.social · 17/03/2026Thanks Jase, much appreciated. Have tried most of that but will try remaining bits tonight. Honestly it’s so annoying. I swear every time I manage to buy a phone outright and go off contract something happens to make me need a new phone. Grrrr Apple. 000
Molly James @msmollyjames.bsky.social · 17/03/2026Can anybody explain to me like I’m an idiot what I can do to fix this? I’ve deleted apps, photos, media left right and centre and every single day WhatsApp and email are telling me I can’t use them because I’m out of storage? Can I do anything about those big grey sections? What am I doing wrong? 200
Molly James @msmollyjames.bsky.social · 16/03/2026(Also pleasing that it was made by the French version of Anton Rodgers.) 110
Molly James @msmollyjames.bsky.social · 16/03/2026It was very not suitable for children but because there was so much going on on the screen at any one time I’m pretty sure all that stuff went over his head. Anyway, like mother like son. I’ll start him on Ingmar Bergman when he turns 4. 130
Molly James @msmollyjames.bsky.social · 16/03/2026We went to an art gallery yesterday where there was a ton of stuff for kids to do but also this was showing as a video installation. Guess where my 3 year old son wanted to spend his time? www.antoineroegiers.com/les-sept-pch...antoineroegiers.comLES SEPT PÉCHÉS CAPITAUX VIDEO — ANTOINE ROEGIERSLES SEPT PÉCHÉS CAPITAUX VIDEO (Trailer) by Antoine Roegiers 110
Molly James @msmollyjames.bsky.social · 15/03/2026Yeah, B’ham Hippodrome ‘83. Good times. I’m good thanks. Haven’t slept in 3 years but still functioning somehow! Hope you’re well too x 011
Molly James @msmollyjames.bsky.social · 14/03/2026Only just cottoned onto this and listened to the pilot because, y’know, I’m not around much, but it’s great stuff and SO up my street. Thank you. Would dearly love one on this (bad image, soz) because it was my first panto. I still have the programme somewhere… 110

If you or anyone you know is into old British entertainment, please follow, sub and tell the world. Then get this on the big telly and enjoy the wonderful videos full of extra jokes and visual bits. 4158
Molly James @msmollyjames.bsky.social · 11/03/2026Realised when I finally looked things up a few years ago and saw clips that I’d somehow fused the memory of this with Behind the Bikesheds. Years thinking Bill Oddie was in Behind the Bikesheds as a schoolgirl. 110
Molly James @msmollyjames.bsky.social · 11/03/2026My very specific scarred for life type memory is of him dressed as a schoolgirl which I think must’ve happened in this show? Can’t find a clip which is perhaps a blessing. 100

Molly James @msmollyjames.bsky.social · 05/03/2026Can’t get to grips with Bluesky. I only follow a handful and the rest of my timeline is the app suggesting people who invariably have anime/furry avatars and seem to think it’s cute that they are deranged and don’t use punctuation. I miss the Twitter glory days. Bring back 2011. 120
Molly James @msmollyjames.bsky.social · 05/03/2026We’re skipping World B#ok Day as my boy’s only 3 and doesn’t go to nursery on Thursdays and also because I have a feeling this will be the last year we’ll be allowed to do so. It is truly a juggernaut. 010
