"There was this girl, y'see, and she lived in a tower. Big, fack-off tower, it was. And she 'ad long hair. Tons of it. Facking long. Had to warn everyone when she walked into a room, 'cos their nans would fall over it and break their facking necks"

Exciting news INSIDE, chums! From next week, your two favourites join forces! Twice the EXCITEMENT! Be here for NETFLIX and WB!

(for six months, Netflix has "and WB" on their masthead, after which the latter disappears, never to be seen again)

The finest programming consultant Harlech Television ever had. They really don't make the covers to Christmas magazines like they used to, do they?

Something really rather wonderful. From "A Celebration of Christmas", broadcast late at night on Christmas Eve, 1984 - Jeremy Brett, David Burke and Rosalie Williams mingle with the Christmas revellers on Baker Street, singing carols and playing with the children. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvZ6...

A thought - given that the bloody thing's never been changed back or repealed, can we expect the Season 21 set to feature an edit of Frontios featuring The Mavis?*

*Obviously not, that would be silly, but this is what preoccupies me on a cold Friday

Exeter City fans have a chant where they just sing the word “cider” to the tune of Amazing Grace. It might very well be the apex of English culture youtu.be/_fFocA4UsN0?...

Only one Wile E. Coyote/Roadrunner cartoon was released in the 1980s.
Hey, I love 1980s cartoons too, ( particularly Wily Coyote), but I am very much in real world.

Meeting residents with real life problems every Friday keeps me rooted.

Nothing progressive about supporting illegal migration.

Review of Aerosmith and Yungblud's new collaboration features the line " A few of the tracks blur into one another, teetering between “new adventure” and “over-produced revival.”" Don't like the Virgin Books, don't like RTD. Some people are never happy, are they?
Aerosmith & YUNGBLUD: One More Time - Spectrum Culture
Old school rock legends teaming up with Gen Z’s most theatrical provocateur basically proves that rock ’n’ roll still means something.

Because everything's an anniversary, FB has seen fit to remind me that on this night in 1971, Montreux Casino of "Smoke on the Water" fame burned down. Still astonishes me that you can hear the start of it happening, immortalised as it is on a Zappa bootleg ("Swiss Cheese / Fire")

Gabriel's Message, by Marillion. Steve Hogarth on particularly beautiful form here. Mind you, given that I love that man's voice dearly, I'm not exactly unbiased on this one. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3167...

Funny thing with some series that you love. You can watch every episode, love the series as a whole, but some bits of it just don't stick. Every time you watch those episodes, it's like you're watching it for the first time. Apropos of nothing, tonight's Blake's 7 - Countdown.

We live in a world where Can could quite comfortably provide the theme music for A German Francis Durbridge serial (and have a hit single with it). I'm quite comfortable with that world, if I'm honest.

This is a 100 percent Looney Tunes jump, carried out in real life. Amazing.
I remember the first time I saw this, many years ago. I laughed so much it felt like I was going to die. What a way to go. The thread it's from is wonderful btw!
It has just been brought to my attention that the greatest ever video in this genre is, in fact, cat jump fail vs Sail by AWOLNATION...

Jesus H Corbett, the cast-iron self-belief of this buffoon. The arrogance. If I'd done even a fraction of the things she's done, I'd have dug a hole and jumped into it then pulled the earth on top of me, but no - here she is, pushing on and still claiming it's all everybody else.
New: Liz Truss will tomorrow premiere the first episode of The Liz Truss Show.

Billed as "A bold new programme in a media landscape dominated by groupthink and timid consensus".

Years ago, there was someone on ebay flogging little miniature models of the Myrka. It was always my hope that someone would buy one and put it in their goldfish bowl. Tromping along the bottom of it, on the way to break into a tiny little seabase or something.

Season 21 next up on the Doctor Who blu-rays. Pre-orders in the usual places. Amazing to think that after this there's just Seasons 11 and 16 to go and that's everything from 1970 up to 1989 done.
