That's fantastic - I've not been there since leaving back in 1995 (30 years ago 😳) so brilliant to hear they've made this move 👏

New episodes are currently running weekly on the Spitting Image YouTube channel; the current show is subtitled ‘The Rest is Bullshit’.

We were on Agile last year, we regularly vacuumed at 2 am at a zero or even negative electricity rate - is that not normal? 😆

Nature is currently heating my water, washing clothes and heating my cat next to one of two electric radiators 💪😻 😆

Looks like a great event - did you get the chance to record anything for YouTube?

Just seen the same thing; no reason why that would be. Must be a glitch?

Brilliant; congrats 👏 I look forward to all the stat-heavy future videos 😁

What a tremendous video! Love Elliot leading you around like a confused relative 😆

Hope this can become a recurring thing where one of the core presenters joins Elliot so he has someone to bounce-off at this show. Seems like this will be the one where the key advances will be at.

That's why it's important to have international allies 😆

Looks tremendous, can't wait for this. Amazing cast for this season as well! 😮

Thanks for the show, and for asking about Greg Jackson's call for changing the market, as well as pressing the point on the gas price.

With Mr Brearly stating this is for the government, do you think you could raise this point with them some time? Would be fascinating to hear why they are reluctant

As Jackson explains it Scotland would be the main beneficiary from regional pricing due to their renewables; same with Humberside, etc.

He says no region would get higher prices since now it's the rest who have our prices inflated to the level of the most expensive area; so why isn't this changed?

Greg Jackson (CEO of Octopus Energy) has called for a switch to a regional pricing model that would bring energy prices way down for communities near cheaper sources such as wind rather than expensive gas: what is OFGEM's position?

Who/what is standing in the way of following this recommendation?

Wow, it just gets worse. Solar bailed me out for much of the week but no sun of value forecast over the next few days either

Highlight of the film for me was 'On My Own' by Samantha Barks - I hadn't seen the play before seeing the film so most of it was fresh to me, but that performance absolutely wowed me.

I later went to see Frozen at the Theatre Royal entirely to see her live 😆 She was outstanding that night as well

Yes, the Powerwall decides automatically itself what to do under the 'Time-Based Control' selection.

Often I don't agree with it (don't see its logic), but basically all I can do is set-up automation with the NetZero app to switch between 'Self-Powered' and 'Time-Based Control' at certain times.
