Wow! #ReturntoParadise S2 has been brilliant - most especially the last episode. I'm sobbing! Excellent series, bravo!

Genuinely gutted to see Lewis and Katya out at this stage. What a treat it's been to see his talent combined with Katya's incredible choreography. Shall be missed! #Strictly

Wowwwwww George! Amazing! #Strictly

We need this instant dance malarkey every week please. Utter chaotic brilliance! #strictly

Scerrrr-eaming at #Strictly. Danny! Jay! Whoa. 😍

Just getting in there early to say we NEED series 3 of #ReturntoParadise, please. This has quickly become my favourite of the Paraverse, alongside the original! Brilliant all round.

So happy #ReturntoParadise is back! I've been wondering about that cliffhanger for months. 'Scheduling issues' indeed 😃

Harry is my kid's hero, and as a mum, I couldn't be more delighted about that. As far as my boy's concerned, Harry is himself an icon, modelling hard work, respect, courage and resilience. And a fabulous dance as usual! #strictly

WHERE DID THAT COME FROM?! #strictly

Vito adapting his teaching for Ellie is such a wonderful example of how accommodations can be so simple and have such a *massive* impact. You could almost hear the audience getting it and being really moved and she was fabulous #scd #strictly

Hasn't Amy been through enough? #strictly

I'd forgotten just what a warm hug Bake Off is.

That's it, I'm now fully shipping Kelby and Zoe #beyondparadise

The enemies-to-lovers chemistry already pinging between Mervin & Naomi reminds me of Richard & Camille and I am here for it #DeathinParadise

I'm an elder millennial learning yet another social media platform.
Bear with.

Word of the Day is ‘uhtcearu’ [ucht-kay-aru, with the 'ch' as in the Scottish ‘loch']:

Old English for ‘the sorrow before dawn', when you lie awake in the darkness and worries crowd your mind.

If you'd like to support your fave authors in 2025 but you're skint, you could:

- make a social media post about the book, just as basic as "i enjoyed this" and a picture (don't forget alt-text)

- rec it in a relevant reddit thread or Goodreads forum or Facebook group

Word of mouth has an impact!

If you don’t want to read Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein together by the fireplace whilst sharing a vintage bottle of Sauvignon Blanc in an abandoned château in the French countryside during a raging snowstorm, then please don’t tell me you’re “down for a good time”.

Come on, Dylan! 🤞 #GBBO
