Just vaping early. It’s a Grundy tradition - used to be a clay pipe.

Elizabeth: “We’ve got this game to keep the kids entertained?” Pip: “Great!” #TheArchers #ThatsNotMyChutney
The box of the classic Milton Bradley game ‘Guess Who?’, except all the tiles are jars of chutney instead of people, and the player image is Carol Tregorran saying “I know! It’s plum and apple!”. Instead of MB Games, it is produced by ‘BBC Games’, and the age range is listed as ‘Ages 56 and up’. It is described as ‘The mystery condiment game’, and entitled ‘That’s Not My Chutney!’ instead of ‘Guess Who?’ The example question on the box is: ‘Is your chutney stolen? Yes.’. 

From a controversial 2016 storyline and tweetalong where Carol and Jill get into a chutney-based dispute over Jill ‘accidentally’ passing Carol’s chutney off as her own at the Flower and Produce Show. The immortal line, “Ooh! That's not my chutney!” was uttered by Jill Archer.

Pete there is a war going on in the middle east right now. You might have heard about it. You could literally go right now instead of doing whatever this is.

Never again. If she was with me camping I could have taken her home - but on a cruise I was stuck with her.

A playful illustration featuring a poll asking if one likes Venn diagrams, with options to tick a circle for "Yes," "No," and "Ambivalent", the latter illustrated by overlapping circles.

We have a hyper active girl in our tent called Gina. The first night she stopped talking at 2.00am. The second night 1.30am and she wakes you up at 5.00am. So I'm tired.

Nigel Farage wants to end "Something for Nothing Britain". Ironic that he is absolutely adamant that the £5m from Harborne was something for nothing.

The Navy may change the name of a warship to honor a brave black man who served honorably in the Pearl Harbor attack to the name of a cowardly draft dodger who is so ignorant he didn’t even know what happened at Pearl Harbor, according to his then Chief of Staff accompanying him on the visit

‘Patreon Stunners’ sounds like a short-lived Indy band. They supported Spizz Energy a couple of times but the singer left to do a degree in Civil Engineering at Huddersfield Poly.

Disabled creatives like me are behind many of your favourite shows – so why has our work support been withdrawn? | Annalisa Dinnella
Cuts to the Access to Work scheme will mean no more contributions to shows like Sex Education, Call the Midwife or The Hack. It will be devastating to lose such talent, says TV writer Annalisa Dinnell...
