AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGHHHHHH! Every four to five years we "discover" this and make all the right noises and nothing changes. Then there's a new strategy (which is essential the same as all of the previous strategies), and a bit of cash and then it all goes quiet and then we go back to the start.
Last week, the Health and Social Care Committee questioned Stephen Kinnock on the findings of the report which the committee commissioned into palliative care.
The reports findings were worse than we were expecting.
It is clear that palliative care services are not good enough and must improve.

If you're a TV/pop culture nerd, this Cynthia Littleton piece in Variety is a must-click: She's compiled dozens of vintage ads from the trade, hyping everything from Kukla, Fran & Ollie and Columbo to The Sopranos and Freaks and Geeks. This is the good stuff. variety.com/gallery/tv-a...

Our 17-year-old had friends over for a NYE sleepover, and they watched Galaxy Quest, Hard Boiled and a stage production of Les Mis. So I'd say the kids are alright.

Perhaps it really was just a random Alsatian 🤷🏻♀️ But the wolf was shot dead at Ickleford a couple of days later. Four years on, my dad joined the local paper as a junior reporter and made a career writing these sorts of stories. He still likes to tell this one after half a century 😆

For two straight years our office was next door to Jimmy Nail's production company. Only saw him once in the far distance. After he moved out Lynda La Plante's production company moved in. Never saw her.
Please quote this with the time you didn’t interact with someone famous - eg one time I was in Cardiff the same weekend as Willem Dafoe (but I didn’t see him or even know he was there until he appeared on the telly later)
Please quote this with your major interactions with massive celebrities. eg “I was married to the pope for fifteen years”
