A year in Jersey and still loving it! Although a bit of sun wouldn't be unwelcome right now...

Exciting times as Jersey's most famous detective returns to our screens. A new teaser trailer for Bergerac has been released ahead of its February release date. Picture: UKTV

Starting the day off with some exciting ferry news: The first confirmed vessel for Jersey next year - Stena Vinga. It can carry 400 passengers and 200 cars. It also has a cinema. What more do you need? Summer timetables should be confirmed sometime this week.

Has anyone caught a glimpse of the Man of Steel himself in Jersey? Henry Cavill has taken a selfie outside The Little Shop in St Helier to celebrate the filming of a new Warhammer 40,000 Amazon series.

We gave a middling performance in the Channel Islands Holly Jolly Quiz for hacks and flacks - but still had great fun! Turns out sulphuric acid doesn't contain zinc... Thank you to organisers @cipr.co.uk

UK politicians have voted in favour of allowing assisted dying in England and Wales. However, they were not the first to vote through this kind of legislation in the British Isles (small 🧵).

The decision day looms as Brittany Ferries confirms they're once again in the race. Will it be fully steam ahead for a connected Jersey-Guernsey ferry service, or has that ship sailed? All to be revealed by (hopefully) Friday.

Another factor that's making it harder to engage with people on X. Yes, other platforms do the same, but I would say engagement on quality content has become far lower on 'formerly twitter'.

A British pensioner whose bland sandwiches gained him unexpected fame in China has died. Keith Brown, a retired engineer known on Chinese social media as
"Old Dry Keith", became a hit when his Chinese wife Zhang Jian began to post videos of him assembling the ham and cheese sandwiches he liked to eat. Chinese observers were grimly fascinated by his dry, boring sandwiches, and his gentle, stoic manner - and he built up a cult following. "We go from questioning the dry old man, to understanding the dry old man, to becoming the dry old man," observed one cultural commentator.
"The old man is us, and his dry lunch is our dry life."

Brief Bluesky intro: I'm a journalist in the Channel Islands, working more digitally nowadays (bar when 'stranded passenger' is needed)! I was already a latecomer to 'bird app' so I'll give Bluesky more of a go posting ITV content along with some personal interests... maybe arts and crafts idk...
