Well who wants to stare at an Apple logo eh? On @lbc.co.uk from 7: should the former Prince Andy talk to US investigators? What can Christians do to stop the far right co-opting their imagery? And are ‘generous’ benefits a bigger disincentive to work than low wages? 0345 6060973 x

Good morning Bluesky. Woke up five minutes before @nickabbot.bsky.social started. Hurrah! Next woke up five minutes before it ended … Grr! Better luck I’m sure with @matthew-wright.bsky.social between 7-10 on @lbc.co.uk when full attention is guaranteed ☕️🥐📻

Started reading this review and thought I must add it to my Watch List. Scrolled to end of review: ‘Under Salt Marsh aired on Sky Atlantic and is on Now’. Didn’t read the rest of the review. PLEASE put broadcast info at the top @theguardian.com !!
Under Salt Marsh review – Rafe Spall’s thrilling Welsh crime drama is clever, gripping TV
This carefully plotted tale of the investigation into a small boy’s death is a compelling, psychologically astute watch – which constantly pulls the rug out from under you
