After the world’s longest hiatus, my TV nostalgia podcast - The Box of Delights - is coming back for a real actual series of new episodes. And you don’t have long to wait!

59 years ago today The Tenth Planet debuted on BBC1. So to mark this milestone anniversary, here’s a playlist of videos where I pick the story apart in a variety of different ways!

Presented in almost story order!

Phwoar!!!

Don't we all?!

Congratulations!

Don't cheat on your wife, kids. They'll make you stomp artlessly to Bonkers on national television. Twice.

I just discovered he's my age and am stunned.

Buster Keaton was born 130 years ago today, on October 4, 1895

It's the 22nd anniversary of my first heart attack (at a pre-press conference screening of Love Actually in Sheffield). Not a method I'd recommend to get a quote on a film poster, but it was the only thing I could think of saying to the publicity lady when she rang the hospital to see how I was.

Last night was just lovely. Manchester (and looking how far some people had travelled, the North West) is so lucky to have XS Malarkey. You can see big names, rising stars and absolute freaks for insanely low prices every Tuesday night. The comedy fan's comedy club. Very precious.

Happy Birthday XS Malarkey.
28 years of Tuesday night comedy. Last night’s line-up (@jainedwards.bsky.social @nottomburgess.bsky.social Josh Glanc & Chloe Petts) was a testament to the night’s ability to allow all sorts of brilliant comedians to thrive!
Thanks to our gang, our venue & our audience.

Happy 60th anniversary to Thunderbirds! Let's take a deep dive into the series' remarkably epic production history and inspiring nature of its optimistic spirit of techno-driven adventure.

Thank you for going to the trouble of making a show especially for me.
Seriously though - if you miss the days when TV Cream used to make podcasts and also want to listen to two eloquent, knowledgeable people who really value television, then this is definitely one to subscribe to.

Danny Thompson RIP
He's played with The Pentangle, Kate Bush, Everything But The Girl, ABC, Nick Drake, Talk Talk, Rod Stewart, John Martyn, David Sylvian, T.Rex, teh Thunderbirds theme, Peter Gabriel oh god all sorts

You can’t fix autism because autistic people are not broken.

I'm just trying to help you. The left is a lost cause, we're all autistic anyway. You still have a chance. Please save yourselves and never use any form of medicine.

You might think you need medicine to combat illness, but medicine is woke. Don't take medicine.

So a quick reminder to everyone on the right of politics: please don't take medicine, ever.
